I remember you teaching me this more than 10 years ago when I was brand new, I must have looked so bad, but you got me there in one job. You have an amazingly clear way of explaining it.
Roskoooo 🤩🤩🤩!! My man!! Miss you brother! 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻❤️
Super sir , my name is Dhananjay from INDIA . I am a window cleaner your video is really helpful for us. Everyday I'm learning a lot. How to do a good safety rope work. Thank you so much keep continue sir.
That is great to hear, thank you for letting me know. I glad to be able te help🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am a rope climbing arborist and I really have a lot of respect for your industry!
Same to you my friend!!
I see why Scott Russel (comment below) would say you need two points of contact.
However, as you pointed out, the rulebook states clearly what is required. That being said, the assessors are allowed a reasonable interpretation of the rules, and if that assessor wants to see you demonstrate two points, then that is what you do for them, period. As far as what Alex shows in this video being "unsafe", or not to code" is a matter of reading each page of the IRATA guide/rules. We were taught and tested, using one point until we were ready to go over the edge. Just like Alex shows here, except we had an Asap on a separate line while installing our ID and foot loop. We were also taught to Ask the assessor what they want to see, and what they will allow. It doesn't matter what level you are at, the same rules apply to all rope techs. Thank you, Jim H. SPRAT And IRATA certified Technician
Clean and concise. I'm re-certing level 3 Irata right now in the US and they're asking us to tie the two Y-hangs together with a BFK under the Y portion. Their reasoning is that if there's a failure of the Y portion of you system it won't swing you if have the ropes tied together.
That could happen and it’s something I talk about in my courses as well. It is also something I do when rigging these large y hands. Prevent an out of control swing in case of a failure.
You could counter that that BABK is only one knot, you need two. Just for shits and giggles 😜
"After" my assessment 😅
@@Sillyworld82 Never ON assessment hahaha. But in training.. That is the time for these conversations😉
So basic, yet so usefool. Im experienced rope worker, but I stayed just because all is so nice explained. And it is always nice to remember first steps I took on rope, and how all this looked sooooo complicated😅
Glad it was helpful!
Super erklärt 💪
Thank you😃
Been L1 dual for around a year, still looking for a job, its nice to review these detailed refreshers to at least not look like a total noob.
That is what they are there for!!
very good technique and a good explanation Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thank you
Cool video. Love the term 'guestimate' :D
;-)
Always wondered how to get past an edge.
👍🏻👍🏻
make a video of rigging the ropes
I absolutely will! Still working on how to film and edit it. What to put into the "beginner" one and the "advanced" one. And should there be an "intermediate" one... And while I started filming it I realised that there could even be an "expert" one... And one where I show practical examples from the field.. In short... They are definitely coming, they are way bigger then I first thought, so I need a bit more time figure out the best way I want to incorporate them into the channel.
You can find the video here: ua-cam.com/video/Bew2_qbRRTI/v-deo.html
Did the jumar install it on the same rope as the asap?
nice 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I've always just muscled way down without the hand ascender or foot strap, it's a lot faster.
+Review1316USA it sure is. Not as controlled though and not what assessors like to see😉
This for big guys or new guys
@@christophermartin6141 Yes, this is the basic way of getting over a 90 degree edge as taught in the rope access courses
@@TheRopeAccessChannel I understand, cuz your body weight will make it almost impossible to remove the jumar. But we were always taught not to put anything above our backup. I’m just saying it should be below the backup since it’s toothed.
Why ascender above the backup?
Was that not clear in the video? at around the 2:00 minute mark I explain that exactly and again around 3:15
My instructor told me I can't used the hand ascender on the back up line
Zoom in on what you're doing hard to see
