What is the difference between dynamic and static climbing rope?
Dynamic climbing rope stretches when it is loaded, so for a climber this means that when he falls, the rope will stretch a little as weight is applied, making a fall softer and safer. A static climbing rope does not stretch and has its advantages in situations where you need a rope that does not stretch or give, such as rappelling or caving use. A static rope should not be used by climbers who are lead climbing because taking a fall on a static rope can lead to serious injury to the climber or even cause the rope to snap as it does not properly absorb the force it needs to cushion a fall.
How can one effectively utilize ascenders in climbing to enhance their performance and safety?
To effectively utilize ascenders in climbing, climbers can attach them to the rope above them and use them to ascend the rope by gripping and pulling upwards. This can enhance performance by allowing climbers to move more efficiently and with less effort. Additionally, ascenders can improve safety by providing a secure grip on the rope, reducing the risk of slipping or falling. Climbers should always ensure that ascenders are properly attached and used according to manufacturer instructions to maximize their effectiveness and safety.
What do you use to climb on ice?
There is very specific gear for ice climbing. Aside from winter clothes, (boots, jacket, hat, gloves, pants, etc.) ice climbers need tools, too. Generally, ice climbers have 2 ice picks (an adze and a hammer), one in each hand, as well as crampons for their boots. Crampons are basically extreme cleats, that hold/dig into the ice. Ice climbers also need safety gear, such as helmets, rope, carabiners, leashes, and assorted ice screws (bolts) for fall protection.
