The North American Open Master’s (NAOM) is a professional tree climbing competition for climbers. It provides a competitive but educational opportunity for working arborists in North America to demonstrate and exchange new climbing techniques and equipment, as well as, safe work practices. The climbers will compete in a variety of events ranging from speed climbs, speed descent, rescue climbing and more. The competitors are all professionals and have to compete in other ISA sanctioned competitions to qualify for this event. I was lucky enough to see them earlier today and it was great watching the “rescue.” Would be great to see these people especially in the event of an emergency.
