Complete Tree Climbing Kits — Professional Spur & Rope Kits for Arborists
Our complete tree climbing kits give arborists everything they need to get in the tree safely, efficiently, and comfortably — whether you’re doing tree removals or routine pruning and maintenance. We offer both spur climbing kits and rope climbing kits, so you can choose the right system for your specific job.
Spur Climbing Kits — Built for Tree Removals and Tough Access
Spur climbing kits are the go-to choice when removing trees or when rope climbing isn't an option. Spurs (also known as spikes) should only be used when tree damage is no longer a concern, such as in removals or hazardous tree situations.
We offer four complete spur kits, with better gear and more modern components as you move up:
- Basic Climbing Kit – A solid, affordable kit with everything you need to start climbing with spurs.
- Advanced Climbing Kit – One of our best-selling kits, featuring Climb Right aluminum spurs with leather super pads and a Weaver WLC-330 saddle — great for arborists who want quality gear without going over budget.
- Supreme Climbing Kit – Our most popular premium kit, perfect for pros who climb often. Includes Climb Right Ultra Light spurs, a Weaver Cougar padded saddle, and upgraded accessories like climbing rope and a cavern gear bag.
- Superlite Deluxe Climbing Kit – A high-end, lightweight kit built around Gecko aluminum spurs and premium gear, ideal for those who prioritize comfort and reduced weight.
✅ When It’s OK to Use Tree Climbing Spurs:
- Tree Removal — When the tree is coming down and bark damage doesn't matter.
- No Other Climbing Options — When branches are too high or far apart for throwline access, or when lifts and cranes can't be used.
- Near Utility Lines — When a tree is dangerously close to power lines and other methods are unsafe.
- Rescue Situations — To reach and rescue an injured climber quickly in an emergency.
⚠️ Important: Spurs should not be used for general pruning or tree care on healthy trees.
Rope Climbing Kits — Tree-Friendly Gear for Everyday Climbing
For pruning, maintenance, and accessing healthy trees, rope climbing kits are the best option. Rope systems allow you to climb without damaging the bark or cambium, making them the industry standard for long-term tree health.
We offer several complete rope climbing kits, including:
- All Gear Climbing Kits – Great value and quality for both beginners and working arborists.
- Petzl Premium Tree Climbing Kit – Our newest high-end kit, packed with top-tier Petzl equipment for professionals who want the best performance, safety, and comfort (see Petzl Premium Kit for details).
- RAD (Rapid Ascent/Descent) Climbing Kits – Advanced kits designed for efficient rope access, positioning, and smooth transitions between ascent and descent.
