We're joined by Amanda Maxim, who has been developing an instant-estimate app for arborist business owners. We also discuss our trip to Saint Louis for ITCC and some new gear. If you'd like to beta…
Cale, can you shift over to the ITCC? I want to talk about ITCC.
Was incredible.
It was awesome to watch her climb.
My mind just went totally blank as we started to think about the pictures.
I don't know why I apologize for that.
But we were at ITCC.
It was the 50th time that they've run the event.
And they ran it in St. Louis, which is where they've been the first time.
This competitor... gave the dummy CPR.
Uh, and I don't think she realized I was joking when I was like, you broke the dummy's chest.
Um, but, uh, I gave her a picture of her doing, of doing the CPR.
And that was really cool.
Um, one of the themes of the whole event was really harsh, direct sunlight.
It felt like, uh, there was so much bright light, but there were a couple of moments like here's Jake Slade, uh, or, uh, this competitor or this woman named Seki from Japan.
Um, What's her last name? I don't remember her first name, but it was where the edge lighting really came out really cool.
Yeah.
Kale, which event did you enjoy the most? We watched all five.
I mean, the Masters event is always interesting to watch.
I...
I do wish they had them miked up for it.
Like they did at the aerial rescue.
Oh, that was so cool.
