My First Speed Climb Event [North Tree Climbing Competition 2022]

POV footage of my first speed climb event at the 2022 North Tree Climbing Championships at Myerscough College. This was a strange event and something that felt very alien to me. The speed climb is a timed event and really just a bit of fun. The speed climb is not really relatable to day to day tree work. 

Climbers are belayed and have no other climbing line or hitch. The climb works the same as rock climbing but obviously on a tree. This particular speed climb event only had the first limb  about 12 feet up so a large rope was used to get you some of the way. I didn't tackle this the best way but managed to get up there.

It was really good fun and something I want to try again. Thanks for all the support and encouragement from everyone. A particular mention to Jordan who got the phone footage.
