Thank you so much for hanging out with me today. We hope you have enjoined our featured presentation…. sounds like the movies right? Anyway, there is a lot of talk as to what are the most important ingredients in making a dual trackline highline. In Pat Rhodes’, Horizontal Systems, he include 3 major divisions…
Highline operations are one of the most dangerous and most difficult vertical rigging solutions out there and because of the tremendous stress highlines put on anchors, I have included some principles that must be included in the construction of highlines.
And so it is with this list of principles I want to list the equipment used in this video module and why…
So while nothing really happens without the GEAR, it is also true that nothing happens without Talent. These two together ingredients (Gear and Talent) are vital, without Knowledge and Skills… there is no Strength to the system. So while I can’t really do anything about the Skills or Talent portion of the equipment, I can help with knowledge and gear… so here is our RRG-RLA Rescue and Rigging Manual. The manual should bring much clarity to aspects of systemology and how NFPA 1006 and NFPA 1670 come into play… Peace on your days! Lance Online Education and Membership
