Great video! Have you considered running the safety line attached to the attendant along the ground rather than through the pully? This reduces the dynamic shock loading should a main line failure occur. G
The Silver "Upper leg" has to be the part that goes into the A Frame Head? and it can not be installed any other way? What are you going to do when the HAD is erected and you want to adjust the device to control the resultant angle? these should be also able to be flipped so that they can be easily adjusted with the device erect.
We made that video right after we got the Vortex and we’re still learning. There was not a lot of information on setup back then. We do use a single pulley for each rope now. Thanks for watching
How can I get into search & rescue? I'd love to get involved in all this. By the way I am SPRAT/ IRATA certified & currently work on high rises for light maintenance & window washing... as you can imagine, the repetition on a façade can get a bit boring. I'm down with volunteering... I'd really appreciate the new experience(s).
Just got the Vortex for my rope rescue team. I appreciate the effort done by the San José Fire Department. Great job, thank you!
Good work men; always use this for refresher!!
That is one glorious moustache!
LOL Exactly what I was thinking.
Good video gents, just an FYI double pulley blocks require two lines or you may side load the blocks and break the side plates off.
I was just going to say the same thing. Switch out the doubles for singles.
Stache Appreciation in full effect!
Good team magnificent guys.
the fireman who is assembling the tripod looks like the inspector of the crazy bird

Bieno trabalho amigo
You guys should just use a single pulley for each rope if your using a double pulley with only one rope it gets a terrible side loading effect

That moustache though
Para ser prácticos ese engendro tendría que estar montado, por al urgencia de un rescate.....
