Hold Fast Welcomes Forrest Lytle to the Family
We’re excited to welcome Forrest Lytle in Cincinnati, Ohio, to the growing Hold Fast family!

Forrest Lytle will now have a Hold Fast XL showroom sample, giving arborists and tree care professionals in the Cincinnati area an opportunity to see the system up close, get their hands on it, and learn more about how it can be incorporated into their rigging operations.
But what makes this partnership especially exciting for us goes beyond having the Hold Fast XL in the showroom.
Taking the Hold Fast XL Into the Field
Cole Burns also takes the Hold Fast XL on the road to industry events and educational demonstrations, where he can put the system to work and show arborists how it can be used for both lifting and lowering applications.
That hands-on education is something we really value at Hold Fast.
Rigging equipment makes a lot more sense when you can actually see it working—watching a load being controlled, seeing how the system is set up, and understanding how different techniques can make a rigging operation more efficient and manageable.
Having knowledgeable people like Cole demonstrate the Hold Fast XL gives arborists an opportunity to ask questions, see the equipment under load, and explore different approaches to modern rigging.
And, most importantly, it will be part of conversations about better rigging techniques and continued education within the tree care industry.
That aligns closely with what we want Hold Fast to be about. We’re not interested in simply putting equipment on shelves. We want arborists to understand the systems, see what they can do, and have access to people who can help them learn how to use them effectively.
Welcome to the Hold Fast Family
We’re grateful to have Forrest Lytle representing Hold Fast in the Cincinnati area and excited to see where Cole takes the XL next.
If you’re near Cincinnati, Ohio, you’ll now have another place to check out the Hold Fast XL in person, and you may just see it at an upcoming event or demonstration.
Welcome to the Hold Fast family, Forrest Lytle. We’re glad to have you with us!
