This week we have a chat about the only three things you need to follow in the ICOP. Take a listen and let me know if you agree.
This week we had a chat with Wayne Russell our NZ lead trainer on what bit of kit does he need to have on his harness. Was a bit left of field for me. He can’t survive without a Pod Bag.
This week we chat about assisted aid climb. I have seen this assessed in some level 3 assessments, but I can’t find it in the TACS. Should all level 3’s be trained and assessed on this? Do you agree that it should be added or not, let me know leigh@5thpoint.com.au Stay safe
This week we have a chat about if a level 3i should be able to train 8 level 1’s without an assistant. Let me know if you agree or not Leigh@5thpoint.com.au Stay safe
This week we are having a quick chat about anchors and anchorage. what’s the difference and how it fits in with rope access. We have found that using these terms make it easy to describe parts of the system and how it falls into IRATA ICOP to comply. it also helps work out where and when the 2 points of connection starts and stops. If you want to get in touch, drop me a line @ Leigh@5thpoint.com.au Stay safe.
This week we take a look at a new bit of kit from Rig Board. If you ever needed to draw a rigging plan on a white board and couldn’t tell the difference between a descender and a back up, this is the bit of kit for you. great in training and planning of jobs. check them out at https://rigboard.shop/ Tell them Leigh sent you. :-). Stay safe.
