[QUOTE="Koa Man, post: 2002031, member: 3863"] Yes, impossible. Many have tried, all have failed, including guys from the mainland who came over here for the ISA show and tree climbing championships in 2007. Here is a couple of closeups of the top of a coconut palm. These photos do not show how the rope would get stuck, but try to imagine pulling a rope through this. We are trimming about 30 coconut palms tomorrow, so I'll get some better photos with a rope in it. As for the ladder, it would be pretty short to reach a 40 or 50 ft. top and trying to pole saw what you need to remove from a palm is very very difficult. I will be posting some photos in a new thread about spikeless palm climbing in a few minutes. [/QUOTE]
