Ship's Prow Ascent using Petzl Ride and Summit 2 with Trigrest

[@Delbenno90]

What is exactly the benefit of the trigrest? Best

I quot using leashes a few years back and so it's a good way to keep your hand in place wuthout a tight grip, saving energy ans strength. When it's at the bootom of the shaft, it also protects your knuckles from banging on the ice. It also just inspires confidence because my hands feel so secure. Without it, I'd be concerned about my hand slipping off the shaft.

How do you self-arrest with 2 axes? I love this 2 axes style but still haven't figure out the way

[@midi510]

There's no need to, since you always have at least one tool secure to the slope.

How was the ride down? Can't imagine that it was too much fun, what with all that super-hard snow.

We descended another aspect that had earlier and more direct sun. I like going up almost as much as coming down. It was awesome spring corn. You can find my instagram post for that day if you go back to spring. @midi510.

If you watch the Right Sister Chute video, I had to wait over an hour for it to soften up as mich as it did when I skied it. The ascent was super fun, though on very hard neve.
