Logistics of full suspension

[neversleep]

So sadly I cannot do this it at home and I will need to find a tree or something else.

Is this possible if you have your back against a wall. I believe the answer is no since you might end up using your legs to push against the wall.

Also finding a tree with a study branch that is also possible to clime is hard. Do people bring freaking ladders to this?

I guess the rope needs to be so long that you cannot grab the anchor with your hands for this to work? Shit the logistics is hard here :(

I don't think it would help much and you'd die bc there's nothing to grab or pull yourself up if the wall is even. It's better to hang freely.

Trees to use for hanging - from a tree expert

This thread is ONLY for those who 1) must do partial/full suspension hanging, and 2) can only resort to using a tree. I was a professional tree climber and trimmer for 5 years, i trimmed/felled trees away from powerlines all over Wyoming, Utah and Idaho. Just thought id give my best insights...

Right. You should not be able to grab anything or get your feet back on sth.

You panic at push the wall with your heels to avoid the pressure? I believe you need to hang freely but I hope this is not a requirement.

The wall will make noise when you bump off of it. Other than that, no problems.
Make sure you have 30 minutes alone so nobody rushes in to save you.
