That was excellent. Why do we not see more of these videos from TCIA? Very well done.
This guy is really good👍
that retrievable redirect blew my mind how easy and simple it was
he’s very articulate and knows his shit.. please more videos with this guy explaining it, he does it in a way that’s easy to get.
thanx👊🏼
Great Info, love the pulley throw line trick, was my golden nugget. Be sure to use a load rated e2e that is tested as a sling not just friction, if it’s old and warn out, don’t use it, if it’s old but not warn just hanging around spare, check the date on the material life span, if that good you are golden. But as a cheap easy redirect it simple to use and understand. Well done great presentation.
Same. That would *never* have occurred to me.
The first canopy anchor shown with the ring is my favorite. Substitute the ring for a Quickie for a midline attachable option and easy advancement of your system.
Call me skeptical but I can't bring myself to tust the quickie 😬
There's the possibility that the pin can come out (even though some people don't believe it)
We've been using quickies for a couple years now. Never had an issue. But I do understand the anxiety of the pin coming loose. On the contrary, a rope runner has multiple pins and and adjustable parts, yet it's faiulre rate is designed to be below .01%. Always inspect your gear!
I like the idea of the quickie, after seeing this video I tried the ring, and I really like it, but changing/moving the anchor point kinda sucks. I'll have to test your method next time I'm out. Thanks!
Quickies are great, but I wouldn't be setting them remotely. You need to be sure they orient directly which isn't easy to spot at height
Late to the party, but this is extreme quality. Epic video!
Awesome video; highly useful instruction. Thanks for making this available!
Wow!! A ton of great info. Thanks!
Ryan, nice info. Always learn something from you.
Awesome!
Great stuff Ryan! I've never seen a pulley installed with a throwline. Try a Lov2 instead of a rope grab for redirecting with your weight on the line. It installs easily on a weigted line, and will descend when needed. The Rescucender will fit larger ropes, but requires the system to be unweighted for removal.
Thanks for the tip!
Love this brother, thanx for the info wish I could have made this one.
Thanks!
Amazing
That was rich! Thank you
Canopy anchors seem best suited for deciduous trees in most cases. I can't help but think that you HAVE to use a basal anchor when ascending large firs and some other conifers.
The throwline pulley trick was excellent. I skipped past the Petzl Eject.
Learn a lot ,thx. BTW, what is that rescue center up there ? Thx
cool blacked out sleeve tat
SICK BRAHHH!!!!!!
FUCK!
I owe you TWO! 🛹 🌊
What friction hitch is that?
hey does any body know what the name of that blue rope was the rope he used to retrieve the xstatic rope??
Samson True Blue was my guess. It's a 16 strand I think. It's real soft and knots well.
@@numchuckkiller nah that's not true blue I have a true blue . That was like a light blue color true blue is a darker blue good guess tho
When using the floating ring how do you get it down safely? When I try it it works great but when I retrieve it the ring stays up in the tree until all the rope goes through it. The rope falls down and the ring falls down. It won't be long until it comes down in some bushes and I can't find it anymore...
I've lost a Quickie in a hedge with that method. Try using your throwline. It takes a little longer to retrieve, but controls your gear on removal. Just attach the throwline on the climbing side, and pull on the release side to remove your rope. You may need to isolate your anchor with a throw weight in order for the ring to drop down.
If you have a spliced eye on your line, it may get snagged on your hardware. The climbing side needs to be pretty smooth for this anchor to retrieve easier.
Hope this helps Randy. It's one of my favorite tie ins.
Keep a metal detector on truck (joking)
@@justinmckibben4534, Chainsaws are great metal detectors. Haha
This is the most complicated subject matter for me. Being overweight at 5'10" 247 is it recommended I even go up in a tree ?
I've had bigger guys up a tree. Just dont tie in to the same point the squirrels are tying into and you're fine.
that rope wrench looks slightly different than the isc one?
Pretty sure its the notch flow, if you were still wondering
Awesome presentation
