    I would like to say _Thank You Tom_ for sacrificing some expensive gear for the cause. And awesome video as always Ryan. 👍👍

    Approved. Keep breaking stuff that belongs to other people. Thanks for donating, Tom.

    Even the boring break tests are fun. And Tom is a great guest, with really interesting stuff to say.

    Tom seems like the kind of guy i'd love to have a conversation for hours with about his experiences

    I watch your videos for a long time, but I think I never saw comparison between different types of Bowline knot (especially ordinary vs. rethreaded Bowline)

    Rope rescue gear has gotten so much better over the last few years.
    I never tied into the litter system with a 4-1. I tied a short length of dynamic to the Jesus ring and attached using my grigri then figure 8 the tail to my harness. Pickoff strap from harness to Jesus biner. Than Aider/ladder to adjust up and down.
    Worked well especially for climbing above the litter/under the harness to negotiate lips/ edge etc.
    Love seeing continuing evolution.

    thank you tom. It really is important to break normally used gear because it gives us all a better idea on how things break and what to watchout for. especially in situations that are not some bs hidden set of standards.

    Awesome test! Seeing the outcomes ( slippage in this case ) gives me so much more confidence in the equipment I use. Thanks!

    That also appears to be an original version of the AZTEK Pulleys. The newest version have that becket "beefed" up, since around the same time CMC put NFPA "G" rated AZTEKs on the market.

    Just another recommendation for Tom's book. It's a little gem. I study it often in the hope that I'll never need to use the knowledge within it.

    Could we see a drop test of the personal edge kit side of the AZTEK? Its ability to arrest a fall with a bit of slack in the system has been a discussion on my team recently. Keep the rescue content coming, thank you!

    I'd love to see a comparison with the Edelrid Kaa, basically a set of fours, but with webbing on it

  • @napalmholocaust9093
    @napalmholocaust9093 25 дней назад

    Much rather have the camming block and tackle just around for heavy deer. Mine is a 5x 3inch pulley with an extra bolted on but I still struggle when white tails are approaching elk in weight.
    I've never climbed with gear (even if I should've) so I can only apply this to other things.
    Would like to see softer, thicker steels with a greater plastic deformation range tho, sagging over time is better to me than all this sudden catastrophic failure.

    I have the Green version of the emergency Rappel belt that Tom is wearing if you would be interested in testing it. I am very interested to know how it actually performs in standard belt loops like they seem to suggest it should be used.

  • @slowgold20
    @slowgold20 27 дней назад

    Using a set of fours for knot passing feels like cheating. Really does make things so much simpler!

    Please can you put a figure 8 vs a rethreaded bowline (or bowline on a bight)?!?!?? The bowline is easier to tie and untie and the rethreaded should be as strong as the figure 8 from what I was tought doing Hugh ropes course's. Thanks

    10 years? Must be taxpayer money. My plane I fly to Alaska from California along the coast is 67 years old! Cool toys though.

    • @moshrom
      @moshrom 28 дней назад

      That's the standard for all soft goods, often sooner if used. I guess (and hope) you're not doing climbing and rescue stuff with ropes? I also guess your plane is mostly structurally aluminium which doesn't degrade as textiles do? 😊

    • @sportenapfeltorten2095
      @sportenapfeltorten2095 28 дней назад +2

      Naaah
      textiles degrade by just existing, but especially by being subjected to UV.
      And they are hanging people from that who die if this break's so using it 10 years is actually pretty economic.
      Manufacturers say to replace a lot of the life supporting textiles just afer a few years.

    • @dgoodman1484
      @dgoodman1484 27 дней назад +1

      How much UV light do you think a rescue rope gets in ten years? Doubt they store it in the sun! lol

      @@dgoodman1484 I think you should watch some more of Ryan's content, he have videos on old gear, worn gear and gear that's been in the sun. But sure, it's your life on the line. Stay safe!
