For those that think the caption is wrong, They aren’t calling the knot a Prusik knot, they’re just saying that the prusik cord itself has an unlosable knot. Just put 2 and 2 together I think petzl knows what they’re doing 😂

So an observation and question on why does the climber connect the cow tail to the rope above the reverso? Why would this not go back into your rack?

[GeoffreyGonzales]

can loose that by dropping it easily, especially with gloves

[Chris-Wernette]

The Machard is also known as the “French prusik”

[icewarm]

well i dont understand what and for what this is done.

[nedbu]

Is that a gibbs knot connecting the two ropes!?

[DanielsanTVs]

Lol not even using the knot in the caption hahahahaha

[shaneburkhart]

You didn't have to climb that mountain to show us the knot G.

[dylanagli]

I’m surprised there arent more comments addressing how sketchy that anchor is? Zero redundancy with skinny cordalet? Is this normal in the mountains? I would not trust my life to that…😂

I mean rapping without a prussik is half the fun 😉

Io ho fatto 700 Cascate di Ghiaccio e mi calavo sempre con il ATC della Black Diamond e Manchard perche va molto meglio del Prusic 😁👍👍👍
Io mi calavo sempe uguale come Fa il Signore qua nel Video identico gia 20 anni fa

[mfiordi]

Cool. But that’s not a Prusik. Social media manager has to take some climbing lessons.

Can i use the altitude harness for rock or tree climbing?

[randomizednamme]

Not a prussik. Not a knot. Not unloseable (seriously why didn’t you modify this to clip to a carabiner or gear loop instead of girth hitching). Also seems like a bad idea to have only visual instruction?
