Reach, Cut, and Lead / High-Efficiency Arboriculture

Pruning the Peripherals: Ethical Arboriculture - Led by BCMA Jason Llano, this session focuses on applying master-level standards to your day-to-day operations to ensure long-term tree health and structural integrity.

The Edge of the Canopy: Take your climbing to the next level. To properly reduce limbs, we must find ourselves at the end of the branch. We’ll break down the body mechanics of limbwalking—covering the techniques, rope angles, and "success setups" that allow you to reach the tips and/or the tippity-top with confidence.

The Power of Delegation: You can’t do it all, and you shouldn’t have to. Learn the "Divide and Conquer" strategy: how to identify what to delegate, how to empower your crew, and how to scale your efficiency so the whole team wins.

!! APPROVED FOR 5.5 HOURS ISA & TCIA CEU's !!

Join us Saturday May 30th from 9a - 3p @ Burke Outdoor in Morganton, NC for an awesome line-up of topics! The Sustainable Arborist / Body Longevity, Saw Mastery, and Ground Synergy

To survive a career in the canopy, you need more than just skill—you need a system. This course breaks down the three essential components of a high-performance arborist:
The Human Machine: We’ll coach you on mobility and strengthening routines beneficial for climbers and ground workers. Learn how to prime your body for the job and "stay in the fight" by minimizing wear and tear.
The Saw Deep Dive: Go beyond the pull-cord. We’ll tear into chainsaw mechanics, proactive maintenance, and the "best practice" techniques that separate the pros from the amateurs.
Ground-to-Climber Flow: Groundies are the heartbeat of a safe and proficient job site. We will focus on how the ground crew can anticipate and plan for the climber’s needs, build skills to assist from the ground, and work as a cohesive unit to keep the day smooth & efficient.

Approved for ISA & TCIA CEUs = 5.5hrs / No gear needed / Bring a chair / Lunch provided

Share in the comments, questions related to the topics for this class so that we can bring you the relevant content that will benefit you the most! Can’t wait to see you!
