Knot (bend) pass during a lowering operation.
In this video we look at a very simple way of passing a joining bend in two ropes through a descent control device during a lower. The system makes use of a quick 2:1 and a Munter hitch in this instance.

T analysis of high-line tensioning system
Переглядів 3 тис.4 роки тому
In this short outtake from a recent Wilderness Vertical Rescue course we look at applying T analysis to a high-line tensioning system. The high-line has twin track-lines, the tensioning system is the classic self equalising parallel 6:1 'flagged' up a tension back-tied tree trunk.

Apologies for the variable audio in this video. We look at a simple & effective technique for passing a knot or joining bend through an in-line mechanical advantage system during a raise. The progress capture devices we use are a prusik minding pulley setup and the CMC Clutch.

AZ Vortex 1 - Lashing the feet
Переглядів 7 тис.4 роки тому
In this video we look at a quick but incredibly useful technique, using basic lashing & frapping, for locking a Vortex foot into position. It also can be used to 'elevate' the back leg of an easel A frame to increase the working space within the footprint.

Knots, Hitches & Bends Part 1
Переглядів 4,2 тис.4 роки тому
This video looks at the clove hitch, Munter hitch and snap bowline with the Yosemite retrace finish. It's not so much about how to tie them per se, but more about a standardised technique for showing others how to do it. Hopefully this neat technique is of use to trainers or instructors across rope access, rescue or any other roping discipline.

Straight up apologies for the background noise & other distractions... we fought with it all day! In this video we look at a variation on the venerable 'wrap / pull' anchor setup that's applicable for duress situations (tactical, search & rescue and so forth). It's a tiny difference but it suddenly makes the 'wrap / pull' so much easier. Equipment used in this video: Mystery Ranch Three Day BVS...

      Great video. I've been using this to repair some shingles on the roof of my sister's garage. I haven't had the harnes 'tested' in a fall yet and hope I don't. But I'm 69 years old and this gives me at least the illusion of safety and that's good enough for me. And I do think it would actually work.

    I was up in a pecan tree today and needed a new canopy anchor. Thought I should do my choke around the tree without abusing a carabiner and so I had to tie a standard alpine butterfly first then recreate the running version. Took me a while as I don't climb trees very often. Your method is more fool-proof than what I did today.

    So this is great. I see the primary usefulness of this as you can utilize your flat webbing for this or as anchhor material, slings etc. mix and match for the situation. For personal harness use only could you see introducing buckles into the shoulder straps and in the waist for speed and ease of donning? This is not for use as any other but for ascending and addition to life safety connection.

    Tried, not good at all - problems: 1 slow, need to tune loops multiple times before it fit well 2 not holding well, leg loops fall down with any movement if harness is not under the load 3 complex carabiner attechment - easy to make mistake, especially if used rarely 4 impossible to use without the top harness part.

    This is exactly what we used in the early 90's rapelling out of choppers in the army. Once on the ground it was easy to stash in your webbing, lightweight and worked well.

    Great video. For the bottom harness, I found that a length that could go around my waist 3 times was almost perfect. It seems like using your waist might be a more relevant guideline than your height.

    • @safetyaccessrescue7136
      @safetyaccessrescue7136 Рік тому

      Hi there. There is an explanatory in the video's audio about getting the right length but just to help out... the webbing for the lower section, when tied as a loop, should roughly come to your nose if you stand with your foot in the bottom of the loop and pull it upwards. The webbing for the upper section, when tied as a loop, should roughly come to your sternum again if you put your foot in the loop and pull upwards. Hope this helps...

    So I retract my comment below. I made of these. Followed all the directions to a tee - carbiner was really secure, didn't shift, and the webbing was snug. However, when I moved around up on my roof, the leg portions kept slipping down, especially when bending forward, no matter how many times I cinched it up. It ended up being a hazard. I suggest this is only for emergencies and/or when the person is not moving much, but hanging in one position.

    • @safetyaccessrescue7136
      @safetyaccessrescue7136 Рік тому

      Hi Rock. Thanks for the feedback & I think you answered your own question (in a way) in the last line. I'm pretty sure in my audio in the video I make it clear this is an expedient, emergency setup or for very specific applications (i.e. heli-rappel, which is what I used to use it for... we were only suspended for seconds under the aircraft since getting on the ground was the priority). Its not a work harness or industrial fall protection harness. I'm glad people are liking & using it out there, but don't be under any illusions that its a replacement for a proprietary fall protection harness. Cheers.
