Rappel and retrieve: HMS Screw Link Webbing Retrievable Anchor

Подписаться 46

50% 1

In this video, we demonstrate how to use an HMS screw link as a retrievable anchor. We'll find a suitable anchor that allows the webbing to be smoothly pulled around it. After completing the rappel, we'll pull the line. As the line passes through the carabiner, the knot captures the screw link, allowing it to be retrieved down to the ground.

Can work nicely! But if the carabiner get stuck between the rocks you loose the carabiner, the webbing, the quicklink and the rope.

Absolutely, you’re right! It’s always a good idea to be mindful of those sneaky rock traps. But don’t worry, in a number of scenarios, our trusty setup can slide through without a hitch.

@@brasshalffull Aggree, it's a very useful skill you shared.

It's a bit hard to see how this works in the video. I think I got it, but I'm unsure. It would be helpful to show in detail how this is set up and how it works, especially how retrieval works. Perhaps show it on the ground first with close-ups from different angles illustrating the role that each piece of equipment plays in making the technique work safely. That would help folks unfamiliar with the gear and the technique get a clear understanding of what's going on.

Thanks for the feedback! We couldn’t show the entire technique in the video because it really requires in-person training for full mastery. There are many nuances that need careful attention. We believe it's best to learn this specialized technique hands-on rather than through a brief online video. We’d love to have you join one of our classes. Hope to see you swinging by soon!

no backup (prusik) on the rappel?

@johnnycigar3240 4 дня назад

It's a lot quicker to get a fireman's belay from whoever is on the ground. The prusik is nice to hold slack while you load your device though.

@brasshalffull 4 дня назад

Great observation! No backup or prusik on the rappel this time because we're focusing on organic assets, not traditional mountaineering techniques. Think of it as going back to our roots.

If the carabiner or screw lock hits the ground, or a ledge on the way down, it has to be retired because it may have cracks inside. That’s if it doesn’t get stuck in the anchor. Why didn’t the video show the sling pulled free and being safely retrieved?

Absolutely, gear maintenance and regular inspections are crucial. The carabiners used are made from extremely robust machined aluminum that offers exceptional durability and reliability. Though, as always, safety comes first-so make sure to inspect your gear regularly! As for not showing the entire process-our inner filmmakers are still learning the ropes. Thanks for the feedback!
