3. On the victim’s rope, the rescuer installs

a foot loop in counterbalance on the

ASCENSION handled rope clamp.

4. In counterbalance on the foot loop,

the rescuer prevents the rope from

running through the CROLL and raises

the victim. They remove the CROLL

and take up as much rope slack as

possible in the RIG descender.

5. The rescuer, hanging on the RIG,

removes the handled ascender.

They install a braking carabiner and

accompany the victim to the ground.

Release and evacuation

of a victim on a CROLL

Rescue from below by a team

member with their own equipment.

The rescuer must carry out a risk

assessment before responding and

verify (among other things) that the

victim’s ropes are in good condition.

The counterbalance system is used

to transfer the victim onto the

descender.

The rescuer ascends on the victim’s

safety line.

1. The rescuer transfers themselves

to the RIG descender, tethers to

the victim, and moves the ASAP

up above the victim.

2. The rescuer puts a second

connection in place. They can

then remove the equipment

that is in the victim’s way.
