Oh My GOD
Her hand got burnt by passing rope, how could this be possible ?
I guess a pair of leather gloves could help, do not you think SO ?

In reply to:
I never thought belaying was important and climbers could get hurt like that but now you opened my eyes to reality.

not to turn this thread into a little fire fight but WTF???

aren't you the accident searching yahoo and supposed expert on search and rescue blah blah.. oh wait you're just a fucking troll

rope burn is super easy to get once the rope starts slipping.. especially with the smaller rope diameters.

In reply to:
IMHO, if you plan to practice falling, make sure your belayer has a Gri-Gri.
your humble opinion is what makes for lazy ass belayers who think they don't have to lock off every time and are ready for a fall at any time.
you should only practice faling with a gri gri? How about you learn to catch a fall.. anytime.. any where.. thats your job as the belayer. should NEVER have to say a damn thing.. what if she'd slipped in the same spot and didnt say anything? If you can tell exactly when you're going to fall every time then you aren't trying hard enough

can we please please PLEASE have kill files back

edit: Mal i agree. "Take!" /wait for tension and "lower" Anything with multiple words and non-standard gets confused, lost in the wind, unheard through a roof.. Simple, direct commands carry over to multiple belayers and situations.
