There's another guy (I think) who has consistently won speed mowing competitions using a scythe, and his channel is a joy to watch.

there's at least a third one, a swedish (i think) dude super into scything to restore meadows. mowing apparently wrecks the shit out of them.

I think that's the one! He's really into speed mowing and regular mowing.

I've also been lucky to meet some amazing folks who do the same but don't have a YouTube channel. They're just mountain people maintaining meadows through transhumance.

I love it,

I used to watch speed building of uh, "wire fences" I guess it's the translation

That is very niche, so much so I don't even know what the word for that kind of wire fence would be in Spanish.

Alambrado, papá

Argie spanish at least

Ah of course, we call it that in Colombia, too. Just that we use it to mean barbed wire.

Plus it can't be niche, how are y'all keeping your cows and sheep grazing in place?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Lol I meant the competitive aspect of it, not the alambrado itself.
