Homeowner here and a newbie to tree climbing. I baulked at the cost to have someone come prune the lower level branches of my trees and then to also charge extra to climb in and prune dead branches so I am looking to do this work myself. Clearly I am not an arborist so I take the change of making bad cuts and damaging my trees but with that being said I am looking to get a good hardness. I understand the basics of each system but I am curious if the Petzl Sequoia SRT harness actually suitable for DRT? I tend to jump heard first into "hobbies" so just want to future proof where I might want to go in the future. I thought about purchasing a lower cost harness from Amazon just to get into my tree to do the work but then I am trusting my life on the quality of the Chinese made harness that really doesn't excite me
I am looking for any recommendations that the site has here with me just getting into climbing and doing my own tree work. I am planning on getting the "The Tree Climber's Companion" and reading through that.
Thanks! I appreciate the time for you looking at my thread.
