Awesome information, do you sell the command packs for trench/ confined space rescue?

Good work! 👏💪

Excellent

Hey, fairly new to the tech rescue world. Bit off topic here but I’ve been climbing rope with percel prussik I’m just curious what product is that that you’re using instead of percel prussik? Looks mighty handy!

Tranfering the casualty from the white rope to the green rope (casualty's backup) in a real scenario it will create an enormous stretch, it would be better keep the casualty in the same rope, the white one, when you are transfering to the descender, it will be more stable in real scenario.

Cool video man nice one

The only question I have about this backup position are given the working load of the pulleys and carabiners on the primary point, are these backup carabiners actually necessary? We have all done this practice for decades, yet I have never been able to find a single case where there has been a failure to a rescue rated anchoring system, be it a vortex, terradaptor, or similar device. It seems between the attachment from a primary line and a belay line at a separate point, there is little actual failure potential for the high point attachment.

Thanks

Hi bro, how much cost?

Unbelievable

why would you not just build it with the tail end from the clutch?

Pretty slick!

Maybe he talk a little faster!!!

Bring that duck up sir

What the total length extended?

Hey brother what gloves are you wearing in this video? Been looking for a good pair of rigging gloves with the fingers removed.

What was the first strap you used to connect to the victim?

Great videos! What length lanyard do you use from your harness to your ascender?

Great stuff, going to make and do a few of these thing.

That is very good to know. I will remember to bring a rope with me for this. Thank you, Jim

Excellent.

Thanks Micah.

Shackle doesnt appear to be compatible with hard attach points incorporated on many harnesses. Petzl Croll as an example provides a large offset hole at its bottom that allows the ascender to be rotated be a small amount once attached to a hard point so it rests parallel to the body. Harken shackle attached to the same hardpoint would result in the ascender being out of alignment and there is not way to compensate unless a sling or some other additional soft attach point is added between the shackle and the harness. Maybe a swivel on the shackle would help? Its a nice product..to bad I cannot use it on the Petzl rescue harness.

Love the device, would this fit on a petzl harness??

Excellent video. I would have loved to been in this class. Thank you Nate and Micah

Excellent. Thanks Nate.

Excellent

cool

Great video.

I wanna take a high angle rescue class with firemen. it would make me feel confident in my capacity to work well in high stress. Although my training is more than adequate.

No T method calculations at the end of the video like the description says?

Hey, thanks for putting on a good video. Could you all do a video showing how to attach it to several types of harnesses with the black strap being laced through certain areas on the harness that you would approve?

Thanks for the video! what is the make and model of the harness used during the video with the Ninja MultiAscend?

Looking pretty awesome, I must try one soon.

💪🤩

Very important information, thank you. Jim

Do the rollers actually roll/spin?

Good job sir

Going to play the Devil's Advocate here, since I own both my own Wingman and AZTEK, and also have access to a CMC CSR 4:1cd kit at work. NFPA ratings, especially to say that something is "G" and has an advantage over other things out there in the market can be misleading. I would agree that from a mechanical advantage perspective, the Wingman would out-perform a CMC CSR pre-rigged kit (only during the hauling process). On the CMC CSR kit the ratchet is placed so that you must operate the haul as a 4:1cd, and when you stop hauling on the CMC CSR, the ratchet engages and you get 4x strands supporting the load. Conversely, while on the Wingman the ratchet is actually placed on what I would call a 3:1cd... Only when you send the 8mm cord down to the last travelling pulley of the block at the load, & then route it up again through a final change of direction on an additional pulley does it then become 5:1cd during the haul... However that is only during the actual act of hauling. Once you stop hauling and rope stops moving, the Wingman is supporting the load on only 3 strands of 8mm cord, similar to what an AZTEK would be doing if you "pinned" the blue ratchet Prusik at its corresponding blue block (& when you do this on an AZTEK, the MBS drops from a "G" rated equivalent of 36kN MBS down to 30kN MBS for "manufactured systems" and/or "auxiliary equipment"). The NFPA "G" ratings are misleading because there are a number of performance categories that different types of equipment fall into. The actual block of the Wingman has 45kN written on it. So for a pulley, a swivel, or auxilliary equipment, the assembly of the block exceeds the "G" rating MBS of 36kN. As does the block of an AZTEK, which lists their MBS right at 36 kN. So you would think that the entire kit as a whole (either a Wingman or an AZTEK) would meet the "G" rated specs to an MBS of at least 36kN at all times. So why is it that on the AZTEK when you pin the orange Prusik it is 36kN MBS and when you pin the blue Prusik it drops to 30kN MBS? The answer must be that the strength of these pre-made jiggers is based on the strength of the 8mm cord or the ratcheting mechanism, & how many strands of this cord are supporting the load at any given time. That begs the question, "How strong is the 8mm cord?" I would assume that the 8mm cord being used in all these various kits out there have similar breaking strengths of somewhere between 12-15kN. I find it interesting that CMC sells their AZTEK as "General Use" while Rock Exotica & Sterling Rope do not. However their blocks are identical. So you would think that CMC is using stronger 8mm cord perhaps than Sterling, but its the exact opposite. The 8mm cord tensile strength of CMC's AZTEK is 12kN while Sterling's is 15.6kN, yet Rock Exotica/Sterling AZTEKs are not labeled as "NFPA G". So, with the 8mm cord in the Wingman, if only 3 strands are supporting the load at rest in a 5:1cd Confined Space configuration, is it still behaving on "G" rated performance levels? Or is my though process way off-base on this?

Hi, if you put a Z into a micro traxion above a Grigri, then you have a great 2 to 1 ascending device and can switch to descend in seconds.

Epic!

Pretty snazzy, I would like two please.

incredible!!! need more content from you guys!!!

Very well done.

Is hard to get in Indonesia 😭😭😭

Excelllent

Would these be safe to wrap around a tree? Meaning, using only one of these to connect from the arness, around a tree, and back to the arness?

How did you attach it to your harness

Well done.
