I had the same problem. Big Agnes replaced my pad. The new one works fine.

Very simply demostration that make a powerful ropes technique

Ditto. I own two. The company replaced them and within three uses I was sleeping on the ground. Looking for an alternate

07/31/2022 Hello Mike. Good VIdeo. You answered a lot of my questions about patient care during a rescue. Some trainers forget to practice patient communications and care during rescue videos. It is really important that if the patient is semi conscious to stay in comm mode to help prevent sleep and panic. Good Job. Don

Not much ice though here at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains but plenty of cliffs and caves that one of us could slip and fall in or over

Great video bro!! Tons of know how!!!

very good

that rope just got stomped with a crampon man expensive step. love the vid even though its bit old thanks for the great info

Same thing with mine used it maybe five six times. The second one I've gone through.

This is great, very professional!

well done Mike, keep them going!

I have to ask would it be a good idea to have edge pro for the time here or is it ok within the snow/ ice. I don't know much on this field of ice guides do's and don't if at all so just asking for learning. Just worry about the ropes getting cut, under tension it doesn't take much to cut a rope even Kernmantel.

Thx a lot.. I love the way you have set the pully loop for climbing up the rope. Also very nice the way you made the butterfly.. Cheers.

LOL, my ten year old just said, it would have been worth putting in a screw just above the "victim and mount a camera to that! Great video but next time please chuck out that GoPro or whatever it is an use a SONY FDR3000, u get less of the head spin from a helmet mount. Love the "clean knot every time"...........So true! if you don't want problems. But even better "clean knot every time but make sure the free end is on the inside of the knot. I'm gonna sub baby!

You awesome dude)

Ive already had 2 and both leaked after hardly using it. They gave me free one first time and then wanted me to send 2nd one in. So annoying.

too many steps.......lol....call for a chopper

I dont know why I get such a kick out of watching this. I never have rock climbed and never will, but there is something satisfying to me about watching these guys set all this stuff up

Great stuff.

Thats a 4:1. Cuz the load is tied into a fixed anchor the number of advantage is always even, 2:1,4:1 and so on. If the anchor is tied to the load it’s gonna be uneven.

Excellent hands-on demo. Thanks!

@Global Mike Reid Great video Mike!! just a question to understand better here.. When you go down to the victim, you attach him to the system via a pulley and a prussik. The pulley will mind the prusik and when you release tension, the prusik will catch him . If so, what's the point of putting the ATC on locking mode on the butterfly at the anchor level? That ATC will also catch him and prevent him from going back down into the crevasse as well, correct?. Redundancy is always good but in this case isn't the ATC adding so much extra friction to the system (when you already have a full system that will prevent him from going back down?). Thanks, Enjoyed your video !!!

Why do you use the atc at the base of your 3:1, it does not have any roly as a progress capture and only adds fiction to the system. Also you could just use a microtraction insted of a pulley and prusik a the victim. Otherwise great video.

Wow this is awsome work man fantastic god bless you

“And now, if we step back into the guides’ tent, you’ll see that the Shamwow has absorbed nearly ALL of the cola!” 😂😂 Nice video!

*This entire line just lit up like Wonder Woman's lasso, the perfect thing for hanging food>>>**allmy.tips/NiteIzeCord?dd▫ ** and finding the line at night*

can you start over please, i missed the third step.

whoa

Bro not sure why your stuff doesn't have more views. Hilarious editing, great advice and awesome attitude. Watched your videos on crevasse rescue for a Mt Rainier trip. This is an old video, I know, but just thought id say I appreciate the video message and content. Keep crushing it!

No more coffee before filming ...lol

Exact same thing happened to my Big Agnes Air Core.After using it just 7 times it kept going down and when I went to fix it, found these tiny little leaks popping up everywhere. Repair one and another pops up. Obviously a design flaw. Contacted the seller - CampSaver, and they didn't even bother to reply, and Big Agnes website had no email address! Just garbage. Will never buy from CampSaver or Big Agnes again.

cool!

Hey baby, min 1.34.. the sling with the carabine were u are going to attach your safe line is connect to the ice screws with 2 normal carabine, without locking sistem... not really safe ... peace baby!

wow, very nice video! I wish you could have secured the flaps on those gloves though! very distracting

This turns me on

There are things that I like from this and things that I don't... I like how you explained your method though. Very clear.

You have demonstrated a Munter, Half Hitch, Overhand, not a Munter, Mule, Overhand. You might like to look this up or ask a guide, as it can make a significant difference. Knowing your knots is important in this game. ;)

How about scenario that he has fallen and has broken leg. Would your system still work or more ropes and people needed then.

Nah, he looks fine... Just throw him 2 cordelettes and let him rescue himself with prusiks!

💯

U can also create/extend the master point on the 2:1 instead of the main line.

This is not a 3:1 or 6: 1 system. Because there is a lot of rubbing through the carabiners. If there were rolls instead of carabiners, that would have been different

How likely is the ice to collapse on you?

Nice video

Brilliant vid, and your enthusiasm is infectious.

Nice rescue dude, you know your shit !

Never make a loop around your hands to pull

He forgot to lock the atc in guide mode when ascending.... be careful guys! good trick with backing up the system with your leg loop while ascending...

Wow, xcellant rescue training vdo. Gr8 skill 2 practice & have in yur repertoire. Alot of basic & advance concepts demostrated. Thx 4 sharing on the internet.

Why are you making this so hard on yourself lol for god sake use your legs to pull him up. You're 90% arms, you should not get gassed when you are safely on flat ground to pull. Maybe halfway up a wall but not when you're on even ground.
