We use the Rig to work on Climbing Towers and set/reset routes. I also have one to use while working on our roof. Thx for the video.

I use 10mm dynamic ropes so I can use them for climbing and rappel..Would it be bad to use a dynamic on this device?
@PEGASUSRESCUE4 жыл бұрын
definitely, this device is only designed to be used with 10.5-11mm static rope
@ALRinaldi3 жыл бұрын
Agreed; if you want a device designed for that, you can get a Grigri, but there is info on semi-static rope on the device. See below. Always check the tech data on the Petzl site if you want to do something oddball; it may or may not be kosher. www.petzl.com/INT/en/Professional/Static-and-dynamic-tests-on-the-RIG?ProductName=RIG www.petzl.com/INT/en/Professional/Primary-uses-of-the-RIG?ActivityName=On-site-rescue#CT-177-5

Here I am wondering wether to get the ID or Rig for installing lamps or the rig itself. Me finding an American channel. "You can take out your gun, transition to long gun, do whatever." 🤣🤣🤣 Besides that: I find it very helpful that you actually use it so I can get a feel for it.

When you pull the lever too quickly, such as after a faster descent over a window opening, and you release it, does the rapid descent stop immediately?
@PEGASUSRESCUE7 ай бұрын
Yes it will stop immediately as soon as you release the handle.

whats the difference between this and the petzl exo? thanks
@PEGASUSRESCUE5 жыл бұрын
The Exo is designed as a last resort emergency evacuation device, it uses a smaller diameter Kevlar line, considered to be a one time use. The Rig is a descent device used for controlled descents using an 11mm diameter static line.
@willastle96235 жыл бұрын
It's also probably worth noting some research has been done into the effects multiple descents have on kevlar, and multiple uses of kevlar line *seriously* weaken it (75% strength lost after 100 descents, this was done when cavers were considering alternatives to nylon LSK ropes) which is why it's designed as a disposeable item. If you decide to use it it's also worth bearing in mind it's obviously got no shock absorption whatsoever. The reason behind the kevlar use is because the Exo is designed for firefighters baling out of buildings (obviously, risk of the rope getting rather toasty as well as the fact they won't have time to put edge protectors in), so kevlar is great because of it's very light weight and abrasion resistance. It's definitely not as suitable for anything over than abbing out of burning buildings as, say, a rig or even a stop.

How is this compared to the Petzl Stop?
@PEGASUSRESCUE2 жыл бұрын
Hi, The Petzl Stop is famous for slipping and has to be tied off to lock it, while the rig can be locked off with the handle, much more reliable.

can you invert on this rig?
@PEGASUSRESCUE4 жыл бұрын
Hi Joshua, yes you can invert on this rig, but can be a little tricky to control with weapon at the ready. However it is possible. I will work on doing another video to show how this can be done, and some of the challenges it creates, and ways to overcome them. Hope this helps.

Arborist here, dont know what you tactical goobers are talking about- I use petzl (and other european, japanese and american gear) daily in a very harsh operational enviornment. Petzl equip performs amongst the best. That said, the trick is done by the wizard, and not the wand.
