I'm glad you find them helpful! We'll be moving to a bigger location in the new year and will update these videos there as well! Keep an eye out for them!
Glad it was helpful! There are many ways to perform this skill, remember to always make sure you pay attention to the way your instructor teaches it; If it's slightly different always go by what your instructor is teaching you! Good luck hope you crush it!!
Depending on the weight of the person I now know a 1 to 1 is a bit faster and less mess but for the exam i get it. They want to see if you still know how.
Total failure as in, failure of both lines? Then yes, of course...That's the nature of the 2 rope system. If one fails you're good, if two fail...well. But if you're referring to the way the ASAP is positioned inverted in the anchor then no...When the load begins to fall, the rope will pull through in the correct way and the ASAP will engage. It's bizarro world up there...up is down and down is up. Hope that makes sense. If you've got an ASAP give it a try attached to an anchor and pull down on that rope.
Check the 7:00, min mark.... It's pre-installed early, we made a point of saying "kind of thinking ahead here, but just so I don't forget it later." Also I think your CAPS LOCK BUTTON IS STUCK.
@@Pacificropes Do you need a friction carabiner since the Rig is only seeing the weight of one person? (Not a two person load, and well within the capacity of the Rig)
@@arsenkasparian Good question! In this case we're not so much worried about the over loading of the rig per se, it's more in operating the rope over the rolled edge. The technical specifications state that even for a single person load, both the I'D and the Rig require a friction karabiner in an inverted situation. (Similar reason why we re-direct the line coming out of the ASAP as well, it just operates better)
Just like to say these are the most comprehensive up to date instructional video's on the net. Much appreciated 👍

In the event of a total failure of the lowering system, wouldn't the casualty hit the ground the way you did their backup?

@@Pacificropes I guess I was over thinking it. Two connections to the track line to protect against swing hazard right?
@@anardone93 That's exactly right, it's just meant to change the fall line of the lower.
FORGOT THE FRICTION CARABINER ON THE RIG WHEN YOU LOWER THEM TO SAFETY

Great video, by the way...

@@arsenkasparian Thank you sir! 🙏
Cheated with the grillon why didn't you his cows tail as his third point
Cheating or smart? Cows tail works if you want to pick him off it again, if you have the tools use them!
