    From a 60 year old that beat his body up for too long, I love the phrase "you can pay your doctor or pay your equipment guy" .....so true. Have a good weekend !
  • "The skilled person's skill will find a way" that rings hard to me. Thanks for the hang out.
  • @Rico-ki5jq
    As an old timer with a beat up body I would like to thank the MB crew for the creation of the 2.0. The most supportive, comfy, and thoughtfully laid out saddle I have ever flown. Well played!
  • Always learn something new, with ever video of yours I watch. Thanks for all you do August!! Stay safe my guy!!

    In every video, it's a little bit like watching a chess player who has planned their moves several steps in advance. Work smarter rather than harder. šŸ‘

    Also having a bad back from firefighting. I understand what / why you talk about it. One wrong move and you spend weeks on your back / heating pads etc. Plus having a dozen back injections. I feel for you. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. God Bless (sorry if i repeat myself about back problems)

    I like that van setup. Also as a person that has seen many tornadoes but isnt a tree service guy, its brutal.

    I am a believer in more ways than one. Been there, done that, in a lesser degree. MB II is a keeper.

Thank you very much Mr August ā¤ā¤ Flyin to the Lake of the Ozarks in the morning for a short weekend šŸ˜Š I guess I'll have to see if Damien is still at Reons the first of the week and run up there šŸ˜ Prolly should buy them all supper !!!

    August you would be better off keeping your chipper you know the history of the beast , you can guarantee work will pick up if you sold it and you will be back to square one here in England itā€™s calling Sodā€™s Law .Hope the back pain eases I broke my back in the arm when I was 19 and suffered all my life so I feel your pain but like you I have still managed to live an active life where other people have not stay safe and god bless

    Iā€™m a 15+ yr tattoo artist thatā€™s been dabbling in tree stuff. I should try a 2.0 for both activitiesšŸ¤£
  • @sinnombre2147
    I do tree work for a livingā€¦..and I am watching tree work videos on my days off. As a 57 y/o I cannot change h who I am or want to. Thank you for providing content on a Saturday.
  • Iā€™m too badass for ergonomics! I woke up one day and couldnā€™t roll out of bed by myself and could hardly walk without pain. Thanks to the MonkeyBeaver 1.0, Iā€™m back in the trees and walking upright, like a human. Thank you August and crew for helping us out.
  • @MikeBrooks12550
    Hey August! Nice tips-a little extra wisdom for us on ergonomics -Thank you sir. For me it's my shoulders that are in rough shape...
  • I paid the equipment guys. A lot! But I'm 37 now, and I'll probably climb another 20 years with no issues or injuries.
