[QUOTE="Soul Assassin, post: 605560, member: 12841"] I tried the expensive climbing kevlar pants, found them to be hot and seemed to hamper my movements while moving around the canopy, so I don't use them climbing. I always use full protective gear while on the ground. I try to stack the odds in my favor, cause I know, sooner or later...somethings gonna happen. In four years of commercial tree care, I've touched my steal toe boots twice with a running chain, and cut my finger with a Silky saw (not badly). I took a shortcut once that ended in disaster almost, shot me off a ladder, onto the concrete chainsaw still a running, my legs twisted like prtezels in the ladder. Not hurt badly. Never again took a shortcut. [/QUOTE]
