Preview Issue 1
ArbClimber combines 20 years of equipment testing, reviews and rope rescue/access/rigging techniques as presented in Technical Rescue magazine (www.trescue.com) with our strong ties to the arb world as regular grunts and adds in some current legends of the industry from the likes of Jeff Jepson, Sherril Trees, Chris Cowell and of Treemagineers, Kev Bingham and World Champion Tree Climber (and working arborist) Josephine Hedger. We'll have plenty of other expert input from the US, Canada, UK, Europe, New Zealand and Australia so you can be sure to get the full technical picture.
Arb Climber has Gear Reviews, Market Guides to entire product ranges, test & research articles, techniques articles, all the latest gear and loads of great pictures and graphics. We have a down-to-earth style and even though much of the rope work and rigging in arboriculture now surpasses even rescue in its complexity we'll be providing some well-grounded basic articles to compensate for the really technical ones. So whether you are just starting out or are already top of the tree, Arb Climber should give you plenty of food for thought.
Arb Climber is also available through an international network of the leading Arborist Supply companies including: Tree Stuff, Shelter Tree and Pacific Arb in North America, ATREAS in Oz, Treetools in New Zealand, Clark Forest in Scotland and Honey Brothers, Buxtons, Gustharts and Forest & Arb in England
