Cs38

[dsearle]

I have my CS38 soon. Im just wondering if anyones cone across a document showing the actual procedures before. I mean the system used to tie at the bittom of the pole, how to attach them to your harness etc. Ive practiced but don't want to fail so something like ive described would be really useful. If not I may just draw my own (although I can't draw).

 

Cheers

Hi mate when and where are you taking yours? im at Reaseheath on the 2/2/15 - 5/2/15

 

Also they will teach you the way to do it all so dont worry, you have a choice of how to do it, someone will climb, you can ask them to put up a second line as a safety line if you wish, or you can wait for them to have the "accident" then use whatever tools you have to get up there and help them, or throw line and then ascend you way up (you wont be marked down for asking the climber to add a back-up rope, this just shows you are being cautious day to day + its easier) as it will be done as if you are a groundy

 

first part of the course is about the climbing, how to limb walk, rigging point for your main line, all the basics, then you will get taught about the rescue side, bit of first aid, dealing with trauma wounds, then how to attach them to you and how to get them down the safest way, just remember if you are gonna take something off, always put something on first, always make sure they or you are connected by atleast 2 points at all times during the rescue

 

Most of my knowledge of rescues comes from a Coastguard cliff rescue past, its slightly different in the arb world but in general its the same
