The only question I have about this backup position are given the working load of the pulleys and carabiners on the primary point, are these backup carabiners actually necessary? We have all done this practice for decades, yet I have never been able to find a single case where there has been a failure to a rescue rated anchoring system, be it a vortex, terradaptor, or similar device. It seems between the attachment from a primary line and a belay line at a separate point, there is little actual failure potential for the high point attachment.
Thanks
Hi bro, how much cost?
The Spin L1D retails for $184.95: elevatedsafety.com/products/spin-l1d/
Unbelievable
why would you not just build it with the tail end from the clutch?
good question. You definitely could, this is just another option. This option can be a little cleaner and quicker since the system is already built for you. Great for knot passing. A Clutch, Maestro, or MPD are all very efficient, but if you are using an ID or something similar this would be a better option as well since it would be more efficient.
Pretty slick!
Maybe he talk a little faster!!!
Bring that duck up sir
What the total length extended?
This one is the shortest version. It is 31.5 inches. They also come in 59 and 157 inches. This is the preferred "personal-sized" mini-haul for a few of our guys. Meaning something they can just toss on the back of their harness and not know it's there. Really meant for self-rescue or pick-off situations. We dont want to be walking around a job site for a week with an aztec or wingman on us. That said, we utilize the Wingman for our rescue kits, tiebacks, litter bridle, litter attendant, etc, etc.
Hey brother what gloves are you wearing in this video? Been looking for a good pair of rigging gloves with the fingers removed.
What was the first strap you used to connect to the victim?
Great videos! What length lanyard do you use from your harness to your ascender?
Thanks for checking out our videos. That one is a 30 inch CMC dynamic I-lanyard
Great stuff, going to make and do a few of these thing.
That is very good to know. I will remember to bring a rope with me for this. Thank you, Jim
Excellent.
Thanks Micah.
Shackle doesnt appear to be compatible with hard attach points incorporated on many harnesses. Petzl Croll as an example provides a large offset hole at its bottom that allows the ascender to be rotated be a small amount once attached to a hard point so it rests parallel to the body. Harken shackle attached to the same hardpoint would result in the ascender being out of alignment and there is not way to compensate unless a sling or some other additional soft attach point is added between the shackle and the harness. Maybe a swivel on the shackle would help? Its a nice product..to bad I cannot use it on the Petzl rescue harness.
Yes, you're correct. The shackle is made to go directly into the webbing portion and is not meant to be attached to another connector. So it basically just sits in front of that other connector if that makes sense.
What harnesses do you mean? Except of the Petzl Astro I dont know any other harness with a hard attachment point for a chest ascender. Sometimes there is a screelink included but i don't see any reason Not to simply replace this by the haken.
@@Perzyval93Astro Bod Fast Sit
@@spaceaholic Thats one harness, you wrote "many harnesses".I don't know of any other manufacturer with such an unconventional design as Petzl. Strictly speaking, it is almost impossible to get a chest ascender other than the Petzl one into the Astro. The shackle requires such a large lower hole on the chest ascender that no chest ascender that I know of has. And if you ask me, I don't see any reason to use Petzl belts at all. Their patent policy is highly unethical.
Love the device, would this fit on a petzl harness??
Good question, and it depends on the harness. Which Petzl harness are you using, or do you want to use?
Excellent video. I would have loved to been in this class. Thank you Nate and Micah
Excellent. Thanks Nate.
Excellent
cool
Great video.
I wanna take a high angle rescue class with firemen. it would make me feel confident in my capacity to work well in high stress. Although my training is more than adequate.
No T method calculations at the end of the video like the description says?
Hey, the T calculations are the blue numbers on the last slide. May need to pause it to see.
Hey, thanks for putting on a good video. Could you all do a video showing how to attach it to several types of harnesses with the black strap being laced through certain areas on the harness that you would approve?
Thanks for checking out the video, and for the request. Shared this with our internal team and we'll try to put something together! Stay tuned.
@jerryrule7509 - we shared a short video on how to attach the MultiAscend to different types of harnesses on Facebook and Instagram today. Here's the link to the Instgram post: instagram.com/reel/C22vtoVs48b/?. Hope this answers your question.
@@ElevatedsafetyUS thank you for being so responsive. That is with such a part in the industry. Just normal guys helping normal folks.
Thanks for the video! what is the make and model of the harness used during the video with the Ninja MultiAscend?
It is a Skylotec/Climbing Technologies Gryphon. I'm actually just testing it out but it is a very light and functional harness...loving it so far. You can get the ascend version that has the CT ascender in it or just the regular version with no ascender and then install the mulitascend into that. It has 2 straps by the Sternal D-ring to hold any device and the multiascend comes with the U shackle to attach.
I also swapped my Petzl Astro for a CT Gryphon a while ago. The decisive factor for this was the ability to use a chest ascender of your own choice. Another big advantage is that the belt has slightly less padding. Nothing is missing, but the belt is less stiff and puts less pressure in tight situations. Above all, this means that the belt fits much better in the gear bag.
Looking pretty awesome, I must try one soon.
💪🤩

Very important information, thank you. Jim
Do the rollers actually roll/spin?
Yep, they roll
Good job sir
Going to play the Devil's Advocate here, since I own both my own Wingman and AZTEK, and also have access to a CMC CSR 4:1cd kit at work. NFPA ratings, especially to say that something is "G" and has an advantage over other things out there in the market can be misleading. I would agree that from a mechanical advantage perspective, the Wingman would out-perform a CMC CSR pre-rigged kit (only during the hauling process). On the CMC CSR kit the ratchet is placed so that you must operate the haul as a 4:1cd, and when you stop hauling on the CMC CSR, the ratchet engages and you get 4x strands supporting the load. Conversely, while on the Wingman the ratchet is actually placed on what I would call a 3:1cd... Only when you send the 8mm cord down to the last travelling pulley of the block at the load, & then route it up again through a final change of direction on an additional pulley does it then become 5:1cd during the haul... However that is only during the actual act of hauling. Once you stop hauling and rope stops moving, the Wingman is supporting the load on only 3 strands of 8mm cord, similar to what an AZTEK would be doing if you "pinned" the blue ratchet Prusik at its corresponding blue block (& when you do this on an AZTEK, the MBS drops from a "G" rated equivalent of 36kN MBS down to 30kN MBS for "manufactured systems" and/or "auxiliary equipment"). The NFPA "G" ratings are misleading because there are a number of performance categories that different types of equipment fall into. The actual block of the Wingman has 45kN written on it. So for a pulley, a swivel, or auxilliary equipment, the assembly of the block exceeds the "G" rating MBS of 36kN. As does the block of an AZTEK, which lists their MBS right at 36 kN. So you would think that the entire kit as a whole (either a Wingman or an AZTEK) would meet the "G" rated specs to an MBS of at least 36kN at all times. So why is it that on the AZTEK when you pin the orange Prusik it is 36kN MBS and when you pin the blue Prusik it drops to 30kN MBS? The answer must be that the strength of these pre-made jiggers is based on the strength of the 8mm cord or the ratcheting mechanism, & how many strands of this cord are supporting the load at any given time. That begs the question, "How strong is the 8mm cord?" I would assume that the 8mm cord being used in all these various kits out there have similar breaking strengths of somewhere between 12-15kN. I find it interesting that CMC sells their AZTEK as "General Use" while Rock Exotica & Sterling Rope do not. However their blocks are identical. So you would think that CMC is using stronger 8mm cord perhaps than Sterling, but its the exact opposite. The 8mm cord tensile strength of CMC's AZTEK is 12kN while Sterling's is 15.6kN, yet Rock Exotica/Sterling AZTEKs are not labeled as "NFPA G". So, with the 8mm cord in the Wingman, if only 3 strands are supporting the load at rest in a 5:1cd Confined Space configuration, is it still behaving on "G" rated performance levels? Or is my though process way off-base on this?
I could be wrong here but I believe that the CMC and RE are identical in every way other than CMC submitted "theirs" for NFPA certification while RE did not. There for even though both are identical (other than labeling) and both have equal ratings RE cannot mark theirs as "G rated"
Hi, if you put a Z into a micro traxion above a Grigri, then you have a great 2 to 1 ascending device and can switch to descend in seconds.
Epic!
Pretty snazzy, I would like two please.
incredible!!! need more content from you guys!!!
Thanks! We're working on it!
Very well done.
Is hard to get in Indonesia 😭😭😭
Excelllent
Would these be safe to wrap around a tree? Meaning, using only one of these to connect from the arness, around a tree, and back to the arness?
How did you attach it to your harness
His harness has a gated attachment, he can open up that D ring, place equipment and then close it.
Well done.
nice but on a stone edge like that id def recommend something more heavy duty
Not trying to be rude, but you shouldn't have both your Y's attached, and they would be sideloaded if you fell.
Good job 👍🏽💛🌹👊🏾
What if you don't have an asap? Is there a substitute for it?
Unfortunately, right now there is no substitute. It is the only product that will reliably catch on a tensioned line.
Excellent video
Great to see you Kirk! I knew you were involved in the Wingman from the first second I saw it, and remembered that excellent attendant jigger!
