Pulley systems for outdoor, survival, and climbing

Setting up a pulley is an essential skill that is not only needed in outdoor, survival, and climbing, but these systems will help you in your everyday life.
In this tutorial, I'll show you how pulleys work, how to set them up properly, and how to include various progress capture devices in your pulley systems.
These pulleys will work for crevasse rescue as well as for lifting a heavy mattress up to the second floor.

    Fabio, this was an outstanding explanation of rescue pulley systems. I own a Micro Traxion and Tibloc, but I've never seen them used together like this. Thank you!

    There used together a lot on glaciers for self rescue or rescuing others.

    Hey John, thanks a lot, really appreciate it! It’s awesome to have people from Australia here. Since I’m healed up from the injury I got during the mountain guide course, I’ll definitely do more of this stuff in the coming summer. Is there anything that you’d be particularly interested in?

    @@TakeTheHighground i havnt climbed for 30 years. Did a bit of it. Did my first lead climb at Arapilies in Victoria. Climbed The 3 sisters and various other places. Had kids and never went back to it, but now i have grandchildren that love Clip and Climb a fun indoor activity we have here. So i spoke to my son only last week. I told him i should have always done my climbing/rappelling because it such good fun, keeps you avtive and challenging and im starting up again He said he and the boys would love it. So when we start in about two months, ill throw you some questions Get well soon👍👍

    What would be the most efficient tool to autobelay your second when doing a simul-climb ? Tibloc or microtrax ?

    Hallo Fabio, vielen Dank für den guten Content! Ich habe zwei Fragen. Schädigen die MicroTraction und der T-Bloc das Seil nicht jedes Mal, wenn sich die Zähne in das Seil beißen? Könnte man optional auch die Gardaklemme verwenden? Vielen Dank!

    Hallo Simon, danke für das Lob! Ja, eine gewisse Abnutzung hast Du bei jedem Klemmittel, es gibt auch Seilklemmen, die wirklich nur Klemmen und keine Zähne haben, aber selbst da ist eine gewisse Abnutzung nicht zu vermeiden. Ich würde sagen dass die Abnutzung aber bei normalem Einsatz eher kein grosses Problem darstellen sollte. Ich habe erst ein einziges Seil wegen seines Gesamtzustandes in Ruhestand geschickt, alle anderen sind durch mechanische Einwirkungen an einer einzelnen Stelle oder wegen Zeitablauf irgendwann in die ewigen Jagdgründe gegangen. Gardaklemme geht von der Funktion her sicher, aber Du hast natürlich eine Menge zusätzlicher Reibung im System. LG Fabio

    I'd take that other pulley (Partner I guess) because the way you show it, there's much friction pulling over carabiners, not very efficient... Maybe you don't mind, but there not much weight added, only 56 grams...

    Yes, that’s absolutely a legitimate approach, I think I also mention in the video that per default there is shorter Pulley in the set from Petzl. For me the only thing I wanted to achieve with this video is that people understand the system and know how to build from there.
