Excellent, I really love that you have new videos now. I could watch rescue all day,( and perform some too) Lovely content, thank you. Jim H. Portland, Oregon.
Awesome video! Found the differences between IRATA and SPRAT interesting. I'll hopefully be going for my L2 this year so really good to see the 2 approaches demonstrated clearly 👍
So he mentioned about keeping the casualty straight hence the rescue line on the sternal, but now you are one only one point by putting the 2nd rope on the same point. Why not using the back D? I'm really under the impression that the casualty is on one point.
Yeah there are definitely a couple schools on thought on this. According to IRATA, "everything between the harness and the anchorage must be doubled" Many consider the d-rings on the harness to be inherently redundant. I'm typically of the school that separating them is best practice, so in many ways I agree with you. An alternative would be to tie some "bunny ears" at the end of your rope and lengthen an ear to reach the ventral d-ring to make it extra redundant. Using both the sternal and the dorsal have never been ideal for me because if you lose one line the position of your casualty drastically changes, which could cause further injury to the casualty (especially if they're already injured.) Hope this helps (:
Question? what about not using the hand ascender and the foot loop and just making a foot loop and holding it to pull up the 3 to1? FD rope tech asking
If I understand you correctly: instead of installing my personal hand ascender on the tail rope of the 3:1. why not just hold a loop of rope and step in that? I see no reason why not, assuming your boots are not contaminated with anything that could damage your ropes (: There are definitely short cuts if you're missing gear!
Hey there! If you can come to Vancouver BC, Canada to check us out we'd be happy to accommodate training for you! Alternatively you can use this link to locate an IRATA Training Centre anywhere in the world! irata.org/course_venue_map

Cam is a very casual looking causality. Great Videos!
Thanks! He knew he was in the great hands of our training manager Josh, and had nothing to worry about but lunch!!
