Man, I want to see more videos from the channel. Does the totem hockle the rope like a rescue 8 does? Also, is that paracord on your saddle?

So you would use this as your progress capture when hauling a patient?

Looks interesting, but if you fell unconscious, you're doomed, right? Gotta have gloves all the time with these devices, or you're fried. That's why I don't like them.

????? that does not make any sense what so ever. That's why you set up auto blocks (aka self belay) or ask for a fireman belay. Gloves are not for breaking!!! If you are unconscious, or lose control of your break hand the glove won't help you break. A big big mistake to assume gloves are to help dissipate the heat. Whatever descender you are using, know to rig it with the right amount of friction for every rappel. That has nothing to do with the use of gloves.

If you fell unconscious gloves aren't going to save you...your comment makes no sense

@@mustafacancelebi1I'd say your answer does not make sense. My sentences present two separate ideas, it's just your mind is connecting them illegitimately. And of course, gloves ARE here to dissipate the heat, to protect hands, obviously.

@@VisinskiRadoviBeograd You are the one whose answer does not make sense. You said "gotta have gloves all the time with these devices or you're fried. That argument suggests, you rely on your gloves to brake. You picked the wrong guy to fuck with. As a chemical engineer, I can assure you gloves CANNOT DISSIPATE HEAT UNLESS YOU ARE USING THERMALLY INSULATED GLOVES. It helps a little bit to protect your hands. It is not the same thing as to dissipate heat. Try rappellling with not adequate brake with your rappel device on a 300 ft rappel, (with your lovely gloves on) and let me tell what happens to your hands. I agree with you that it helps protecting your hands from dirt and friction, but without proper braking gloves don't help with your rappeling.

@@VisinskiRadoviBeograd your subjective ideas (which is wrong by the way) in regards to safe rappelling does not mean anything to me. Gloves protect hands for sure. Rubbing against rope, or any sand it helps. But, it is not a means of controlling speed as you rappell. Your original sentence was "gotta have gloves all the time. Or else your hands will fry means you suggested that's the only way to protect overheating, which is wrong. Totem, Critr, ATS or any similar device which has various friction settings allow you to add friction on fly so you keep your descent rate. Try keeping canyon mode (aka fastest mode, lowest friction setting) on a 75, 100 m descent and with your glvoes on. And let me know if your hands are fried or not. Gloves help protect your hands from scratching, or drying etc. but that's it. You tie a hitch (prusik or kleimheist) in case you go unconscious. if you go unconscious during descent, help me understand how on earth your gloves would protect your hands? You will be dead or seriously injured anyways going unconscious on rope as you descend. Let's not even get into fundamentals of heat transfer. I'm a chemical engineer with a phd. Stop the bs.

I see that you're using Aztec here. Rock E. and CMC have the same size double pulleys but with the gates opening while the swivel is attached to a carabiner. Would you use it or you deliberately use this one?

I would also recommend using the steel carabiner since Tibloc is made of steel and it will quickly wear out the aluminum.

@@CelynParry my bad. Tibloc is in fact stainless steel. I guess that makes sense, don't really see titanium used anywhere else in climbing gear.
