    I enjoyed this video, particularly the honesty regarding the mistakes and risk taking. We all take chances and not necessary vocalise why and how we make our decisions. There is a lot to learn from this. A conventional trad lead video with similar commentary would help a lot of beginners.

    Thanks for the vid, both of you. I just recently started a similar approach but run the microtrax on my harnesses back loop, cache goes under and between my legs as recommended by Andrea Calligaris. And I might bring a stick clip if I'm getting in above my head, as I saw Yann do in another vid. Thanks!

    Great to see you two together. I am sure I will watch this video twice.
    I myself use the REVO from WildCountry, find the mechanism of the trigger more reliable. With the Grigri it is possible that the Backup Loop run through till it locks. on the other hand the Grigri with many falls is certainly more durable.
    what do you think? Grigri vs. REVO.
    Best wishes from Germany .

    So when can we expect Petzl to produce a vertical wheelbarrow to let you haul even more gear?

  • @kyledrake9750
    @kyledrake9750 Місяць тому

    Looks like he is using the slip knot to stop back feeding from Matt Hunter's video. I think it is the best way by far. Also, you can't stop the back feeding by increasing your cache loop because the extra rope weight it locks off the grigri.

    I just did Three Pines the other day. Now what route was this? Was my first time up to the gunks and I was blown away by how beautiful it is up there.
    My friends put me on Ursula, Northern Pillar, Sleepwalk, a 11a we top roped from a shared anchor on next to sleepwalk and three pines the next day. All in all it was such a great weekend to learn more about Trad. I also found a brand new cam on Ursula and they called it “My First Booty”. Which I hope is a route name somewhere.
    Can’t wait to go back up soon! Hope to bump into yas sometime! Thanks for the great videos guys!

    for soloist, thicker rope is better than thin rope but its heavier per grams, so we need to tend and tensioned our anchored rope more often

      From doing a bit of lip reading I think Yann is saying: "Arrêtez d'faire du free solo, les p'tits crisses, sinon j'vas descendre en rappel pis vous donner une claque en tabarnak."

  • @roo9569
    @roo9569 11 місяців тому

    I think that the micro traction was the wrong direction, if the Grigri were to fail it would pull the feeding end of the rope all the way out? No?

    • @undaware
      @undaware 10 місяців тому

      The traction is mostly for cache management. The cache weight is the grigri brake asist. All else fails a stopper knot down the line closes the loop. But yeah it looks like a really "loose" system if the grigri were to go freerunning.
