  2. but by having suitably trained people and the right kit potentially peoples lives can be saved within our industry, i carry the kit and belive i have the ability to perform a rescue in many scenarios, ie the scenario from the comp this weekend of a climber unconcious on his acces line or of a climber injured on the edge of the canopy. what do you think would happen if you were unconsious in the canopy with a guy on the ground incapable of performing a rescue
