Self-aid on multi pitch

Self-aid on multi pitch

With Pino Gidaro – Powered by Alpstation

It often happens, during a multil pitch climb, to have to intervene with rope manoeuvres to give a hand to your partner (top rope). These manoeuvres are part of self-rescue skills, that are, a sequence of operations carried out on site and with the only material that we have available during our ascent to resolve a situation that inhibits the progression of the climb.

The manoeuvres that will be analyzed are:

  • Simple and double hoist from first to second rope
  • Junction for the passage from recovery to descent of the second rope
