TL;DR
Dynamic cabling is a tree-support technique that links co-dominant stems or weak limbs high in the canopy with flexible synthetic rope systems that allow natural movement while catching the load if a union starts to fail. Unlike static steel cable, the hollow-braid rope and shock-absorbing components let the tree keep building reactive wood.
What it means
Dynamic cabling is a tree-support technique that links co-dominant stems or weak limbs high in the canopy with flexible synthetic rope systems that allow natural movement while catching the load if a union starts to fail. Unlike static steel cable, the hollow-braid rope and shock-absorbing components let the tree keep building reactive wood. Arborists install it to ANSI A300 Part 3 guidelines and inspect it on a multi-year cycle, since the hardware weathers and the tree outgrows it.
