Ropes over a 100m long just land in a bag with top end tied at the entrance. :D

Hello there Alex, I'm a French rope access worker, I'm using the Spark since 2 years now and I'm agree with you on all the points. The Spark is a verry strong and durable descender. I've tortured it with paintings, masonry, fluids in industrial plants, and even in salty environment (with a proper wash after the job he still work great and no rust in it). He's still doing the job. The only bad point for me is the fact that when you do a small ascend on your rope with a fist ascender like a Jumar or else, the hold of the Spark may blocked in the ascender, but this can be avoid pretty easy with a good management of the handle. Anyway, I recommend it. He do the job, and he do it quiet well. 🙂

be good if you did a level 1 mock test video

I am struggling passing knot while ascending, I cannot seem to keep the rope close enough to chest long enough to lock my chest ascender. What could I do, or what am I not doing correctly? Is there anyway I can manipulate the footloop so when I step up I am closer to the rope?

WOW So informative. I need to move some renovation materials up a hill. Your video has helped me design my pulley system. I'm 58 and never understood a pulley system and you made it so clear in 20 minutes! THANK YOU!!

What kind of pulley system? It’s a theoretical 2:1 with a change of direction. The pulley is at the load so it’s an even system and there is only one moving pulley. But with the friction of the I’D it’s even less than that.

Hi, i would make this video much shorter. If you use separate ropes than you victim, you can directly ascend above and start the weight transfer, using just one pulley, you can get him of his ascender, with the help of your weight,while he is attached in two points! And start descending.All under 3 minutes!

Feck both of those ideas off and hire an actsafe 😂

Awesome way of moving casualty, smooth method. A little bit faster than the ''cheat string method'' and also a little cleaner, thanks for putting this vid up.

I am job

Great video Alex. I like this method best when the casualty has descended onto the knots. If the backup line knot is not too low then the rescuer may be able to do the rescue while staying under the knots. 😊

As a standard double deviation should be turned into triple deviation and then passing it doesn't slow down rescue. Great video yet again 👍

As a 118kg man, I usually weigh more then those on the line I need to break into so counter balancing them is easy, this is one of my favourite rescues I need to do.

Volume is really low buddy

I was wondering what length grillon you would recommend. Thanks. I love the videos. I watched them a ton before my rope tech class. Thanks again

What’s it for?

I can't understand: how hand ascender can be useful if the hand are above the ascender?

good man, excellent video

Doing my level 1 just now and your videos are really helping. 🇳🇱

Hi buddy are you still happy with the bag ?

What type of climbing lanyards should I always bring?

It’s so nice and organize and easy to use

Hii can i try this job next year ❤👍💪

Nice video Alex! Alex or someone know how is working with it in big highs for example 160m? Thanks

I had to put my edelrid fuse backup on a loaded rope recently and the rope deformed, making it impossible. Wish I had an asap after that.... Or had seen this video

I like how you avoid saying petzl regarding a descender that would have to be locked

Rope access devices often don't allow for ascenders below the device is the simple answer

Thanks for the video! Have you or anyone you know ever had to rely on the backup to save you from falling? Like have you ever had a descender or ascender fail?

My fav gear is my kernmantle rope and carabiners😂

Love your video, really helpful❤️

Excellent video. Thank you, Alex.

This is all very well demonstrated, however it would be nice to see a version without using your casualties kit. As of course the #1 rule is to take it and use it, but sometimes the reason they’re being rescued is due to equipment failure.

Good to see you again, good coordination and technique Greetings

Which is the best id

This looks better than my grigri.

How many Grillon can you carry with you in the assessment? And please another question, can you carry all the equipment you want with you? Or can the evaluator oppose the being that you have a lot of equipments? Thank you for your answer.

Hi, why you have a black rope on your back?

Maybe your logic is true BUT your CAPACITY TO EXPRESS THINGS SEEMS a lost battle... You cud hardly explain things comprehensively... only you , guess, is getting what you mean.

I have used the Petzl Grillon for so much work,just can’t imagine using something else.

Hi Alex, I'd be very interested in understanding your preparation for the team rescue because I'm doing my L3 upgrade in a couple of months. Great video - you and I have different techniques for the loop rescue so fascinated to watch your method - very helpful 👍

You are a machine. TKS for posting it, the videos are helping me a lot to prepare for my evaluation for Level 3 now in May.

Very good video, tks for share. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I really like your videos. In May 2024 I'm going to do my assessment for level 3, and watching your videos are helping me a lot. I see them and then I start practicing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from Ecuador.

I did the exact same thing to a T 😂.

I see you’ve got a Progress Adjust on your handled ascender!!! What do you think about that setup???

I am a little concerned ... more than 2 Month without a new Video. I hope everything is ok with Alex? Hopefully an extralong hollyday...

I am a rope climbing arborist and I really have a lot of respect for your industry!

The better knot!

Thank you! Those videos helped me a lot in the IRATA L1 courses.
