Rope Rescue Training

Visit ropesthatrescue... for more details.
In this video you will see;
An introduction video with Reed Thorne,
The presentation he give at ITRS 2007 showing the reality of a worst case failure of the main when the rescue package is transitioning the edge
The test we did in Jan, 2012 showing succesful drops of 280 Kg (600 lbs) onto a slack belay line supported in the AHD by an AZTEK Elite Pro set of fours
Finaly you will see video showing the tandem prusik belay failing to catch when the prusik minding pulley is used.
There is a total of an hour of presentation. Thanks to the generosity of Reed Thorne for making his findings and presentation available. We hope you like it and would really like to hear what you think of this stuff.

As I tell my people, I´ll stay using this method until we can compensate it in a different way. Or maybe I´ll just stay with this one! Lol. Thank you Master Reed Thorne,for helping us and our students stay safe!

I would agree that most accidents happen during the edge transition.
