Fiddlestick Anchor Tool Rappel
Переглядів 77728 днів тому
In this video, a demonstration is given on how to use the full length of the rope with this fiddlestick technique. We’ll accomplish this by using a stone (stein) knot and then placing the fiddlestick tool through the knot. A rappel will be conducted by all members of the team at which point the last person will then pull the fiddlestick line and retrieve the rope to continue to the next task at...
Rappel and retrieve: HMS Screw Link Webbing Retrievable Anchor
Переглядів 518Місяць тому
In this video, we demonstrate how to use an HMS screw link as a retrievable anchor. We'll find a suitable anchor that allows the webbing to be smoothly pulled around it. After completing the rappel, we'll pull the line. As the line passes through the carabiner, the knot captures the screw link, allowing it to be retrieved down to the ground. Please visit brasshalffull.com/ and www.prevailrescue...

The ability to draw a pistol from your holster in a swift, but more importantly smooth, manner is a skill to regularly hone. Presentation of the pistol begins with a clean draw and, so, getting a seamless draw is consequentially more crucial than hastily drawing the handgun only for it to potentially get hung up. However, that does not mean you should be taking your sweet time with the draw. In...
Pressure Bandage Application Technique

Pressure bandages, or dressings as they’re also known, are great medical devices designed to help control bleeding. They aid in applying pressure to various areas of the body where a traumatic injury has been sustained. Be mindful for injuries that cause severe bleeding on limbs, where applying a tourniquet can be the quickest way to control bleeding. Also, consider that applying direct pressur...

Despite this being a good drill to see certain improv...
The system shown here is actually only used for self-rescue if you fall into a crack in the ice as part of a rope team on a glacier. Of course, the other members of the rope team have to build an anchor at the top to avoid being pulled in themselves. The Micro Traxion is not suitable as a stand-alone climbing device because of its teeth, as it is considered half a safety device. If there was an additional connection between the climbing harness and the Ropeman, you would at least have a full safety device. I wouldn't use this for hobby climbing, even though I own the devices shown here.
Why can't you just invest in a Kroll for your chest? does the device you're using have a different function that means you have to do the "Pull" action with the dead rope?
Yeah a frog or even Texas system would be better here
Thanx for inspiration. What is the brand of the rope you use in this video? Looks quite thin...
Thanks for tuning in! The rope is the 8mm Havoc Assault Rope from North American Rescue.
@@brasshalffull thanx, so it is definitely not a climbing rope used for catching falls, I see.
It's a cool system but as a rock climber that has been taught that every system needs to be locked off & redundant forever it scares the shit out of me
We totally get where you're coming from! Rock climbing principles of redundancy and locking off are essential. However, this system is designed with different scenarios in mind, focusing on efficient use of organic assets rather than traditional mountaineering techniques. Safety is always a priority, and we encourage using the system in the appropriate contexts and with thorough training.
If the carabiner or screw lock hits the ground, or a ledge on the way down, it has to be retired because it may have cracks inside. That’s if it doesn’t get stuck in the anchor. Why didn’t the video show the sling pulled free and being safely retrieved?
Absolutely, gear maintenance and regular inspections are crucial. The carabiners used are made from extremely robust machined aluminum that offers exceptional durability and reliability. Though, as always, safety comes first-so make sure to inspect your gear regularly! As for not showing the entire process-our inner filmmakers are still learning the ropes. Thanks for the feedback!
Can work nicely! But if the carabiner get stuck between the rocks you loose the carabiner, the webbing, the quicklink and the rope.
Absolutely, you’re right! It’s always a good idea to be mindful of those sneaky rock traps. But don’t worry, in a number of scenarios, our trusty setup can slide through without a hitch.
@@brasshalffull Aggree, it's a very useful skill you shared.
no backup (prusik) on the rappel?
It's a lot quicker to get a fireman's belay from whoever is on the ground. The prusik is nice to hold slack while you load your device though.
Great observation! No backup or prusik on the rappel this time because we're focusing on organic assets, not traditional mountaineering techniques. Think of it as going back to our roots.
It's a bit hard to see how this works in the video. I think I got it, but I'm unsure. It would be helpful to show in detail how this is set up and how it works, especially how retrieval works. Perhaps show it on the ground first with close-ups from different angles illustrating the role that each piece of equipment plays in making the technique work safely. That would help folks unfamiliar with the gear and the technique get a clear understanding of what's going on.
Thanks for the feedback! We couldn’t show the entire technique in the video because it really requires in-person training for full mastery. There are many nuances that need careful attention. We believe it's best to learn this specialized technique hands-on rather than through a brief online video. We’d love to have you join one of our classes. Hope to see you swinging by soon!
💪🏽
Really want to try this one next time I shoot.
