We didn’t need to book in advance. Just show up and they’ll get you in. The earlier you arrive the more likely you’ll avoid any other groups.

a hot knife cuts well and leaves a good finish might need a bit of tutting up with a lighter but works well, knife docent have to be sharp just hot enough to melt through the rope

Use a red hot knife to cut synthetic rope. Then touch up the loose edges with a lighter. BTW, were you toking when you filmed this? LOL

Hi Please don’t think I’m picking or judging you. As I’m not. I’m just very confused. I’ve just done my level one course on ski servicing and was told the 88/90 degree angle is only to be done on the side edge and the the base edge is set with a bevel/ useing a guide and a file @ 1 degree I’m still learning my self just wanted to clarify if I’m wright or wrong? Thanks

I have heard the tail should be at least 5 times the diameter of the rope.
@AdventureSchoolVideos Жыл бұрын
That’s probably a good rule of thumb. If dressed we’ll, these double fisherman knots aren’t prone to slipping much at all so shorter tails is likely not a significant risk, but five times the diameter on this 7mm cord is is only like 1.4 inches so not too bad.

When do you use the 88°and when do you use the 90°?
@AdventureSchoolVideos2 жыл бұрын
A 90° would be preferred for a less experienced skier or when not planning to ski too aggressively. A sharper bevel like the 88° would be for aggressive skiing or when skiing on icy or hard snow. If you try to use the 88° less aggressively, it will hook up too easily. and if you use the 90° on ice or aggressive skiing like racing, you won't have as much edge control or bite. Of course these are preferences and also depend on your size, age, skis, and all other variables. Some skiers tune to the .5° and can tell a difference.

Thanks Tom. I’m not a pro, but I’m glad my experience learning how to do this and sharing has helped you.
Sometimes we view hermit crabs as scared and isolated creatures who hole up in our shells at the first sign of danger or discomfort. However, hermit crabs deserve a second look. They’re remarkable creatures who adapt to the incredibly harsh environment of tide pools with grit and resilience. Hermit crabs carry a protective shell with them to keep them safe, yet they have the remarkable courage to leave an old shell they’ve outgrown behind for a new one. This requires them to not only take the initiative to seek out new shells but to leave the security and comfort of a known shell and venture into an unknown but potentially better shell. They don’t always get it right and need to find a different shell, but they’re not scared ti try. We can learn a lot from these little guys. What she’ll are you hiding in right now? Are you looking for a new shell and when you find it will you have the courage and fortitude to leave the old shell you’ve outgrown behind to move into the new one? Change is hard and scary for us, but the courage of the humble hermit can be an inspiration for us all to seek out a better life and leave old habits, relationships, careers, or identities behind. #change #adventure #adventureschool #hermitcrab #courage #makeithappen

Question: I picked up a "Hot Knife" for cutting rope. Do you know if the end will hold up as solid as the method you are using. The cut has much less melted material holding it together. ( I know very little about working with rope.) I have used electrical tape to hold the rope tightly together as another viewer has suggested. None of my arts and crafts have had extended field use. Thanks for the video. I am going to install an anchor point in the ceiling of my office to practice with. (Looked to be how you are doing it) Plus I can practice all the climbing knots while watching video at my desk. Thanks again. 😀👍
@AdventureSchoolVideos2 жыл бұрын
Great question. My experience with hot knife cutting is that they'll work well to get a clean cut, but if you're using the rope for anything other than around the house, you'll want to seal further up the rope than just the surface. even just a 1/4" is good, but sealing in any loose ends will ensure you don't get fraying or separation from the sheath and core. A heat gun will work, but if you don't have one, just use a lighter like I did.
