I think that Wikipedia's tree climbing article isn't a "directory" for all the recreational tree climbing companies. Please stop to add external links of your commercial organisation. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.69.62.41 ( talk) 10:16, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
The TCI 'Ad' should be removed from the introduction and to the bottom under a headline 'Treeclimbing Organisations' or something. Peter Jenkins seems to have a large fanbase but he's quite unlikely the only one who had the idea of climbing trees with modern ropes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.110.95.2 ( talk) 11:22, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
There is currently a recreational tree climbing article, while tree climbing is a red link. Because there are many things that could be written that would apply equally well to commercial or activist tree climbing as recreational climbing, it seems logical to move this article to tree climbing (leaving a redirect at recreational tree climbing, of course) and then make the current content of this article a mere section of a larger one. Any objections? Anyone else want to be bold and do it before I get around to it? - leif ☺ ( talk) - 22:36, Jun 23, 2005 (UTC)
Isn't it safe to say that recreational tree climbing was started by children, and not environmentalists? - 165.91.174.179 - 09:10, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
The first tree climbing grove was established in Atlanta, Georgia by Peter "Treeman" Jenkins in 1983 (see "The Founder's Grove" in www.treeclimbing.com ). In France, the first tree climbing organization was created in Annonay, Ardèche, by "Les ACCRO-Branchés" in 1989. - 84.100.185.207 - 09:02, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
The 14 April 2009 at 15:30, 79.110.95.2 ( talk) adds the text below on "Tree climbing history" :
Tree climbing techniques and gear aren't derived from "professional tree climbers ( arborists)". Tree climbing gear & techniques are principaly derived from rock climbing and caving. And also used to climb trees by " Arborists climbers". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.195.83.28 ( talk) 16:29, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
The techniques described here don't look anything like the what the tree service guys do that I've seen. They ususally just have a strap around the trunk of the tree and they move the strap up as they ascend. — 66.60.137.134 ( talk) 18:10, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone object to me changing the first line to remove the word recreational? It seems to me that we are talking here about all kinds of tree climbing.-- john.james ( talk) 01:06, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
