Poll on two rope technique.

[Mick Dempsey]

It has been a while since this was introduced, I’d be interested to know what sort of proportion of pro climbers are using it.

Votes are anonymous, but feel free to enlarge on your vote if you feel like it.

 

Personally there’s no directives or legislation here (that I’m aware of) so I don’t.

I didn’t want to be absolutist about it.

As you're so fond of pointing out, this is a false dichotomy.

I’m not sure it is is it ?
It’s not a statement it’s a question .
I don’t think you can have a question as a false dichotomy that is based upon fact ?
....could be wrong though Jo ? I’m relatively simple if I’m being honest 🥸

And no the hell do I use two ropes unless I feel I fancy a fresh one that hasn’t been trodden into the mire by my ace Groundsman (and I mean that , just in case he’s reading this) like a Frenchman doing the ‘pigeage’ .
Two rope schmoo rope I say !!
But I feel for the buggers out there restrained by contractual obligations in their works and that have enforced unnecessary health and safety paradigms [emoji1306]

You said it was anonymous Mick.

I voted, and the ‘almost never’ % went up, which could blow my cover if the HSE are monitoring this.

 

I have contacted my legal people.
