CalFire takes us from pack-out to the site to full tieback setup. A real look at what it takes to get a system built from the ground up in the field. This is the work before the work.

150 meters up, you don't get a second chance to figure out your escape system.

The PDQ3 is the only self-controlled emergency descent system on the market that puts full authority over descent speed in your hands.

Thumb-activated rope payout lets you manage slack before committing. A built-in anti-panic feature prevents dangerous free-fall speeds, and Sterling's 6mm X-Tec Technora rope keeps it lightweight, packable, and heat resistant.

Your systems don't get dialed on the day of the call. They get dialed in training.

CalFire is rigging, lowering, and running through the kind of complex setups that have to be second nature before you ever need them in the field.

To the crews out there cleaning up and getting communities back on their feet: thank you. Inspect your gear, restock what you need, and stay safe.

If you need help getting equipment, reach out to your rep.

Ryan breaks down his go-to ropes, his preferred lengths, and the thinking behind how he sets up before the climb. Then he puts it all to work. Crane-assisted canopy access, prune cuts, limb removal, and the kind of day-in-the-life footage that reminds you why the right setup matters before you ever leave the ground.

No exterior sill anchor? No problem.

A remote anchor secures your Stealth Personal Rescue System to an interior structural member — a wall stud, heavy pipe, big furniture — for a bombproof tie-off when the window sill can't take the load.

📷 Big thanks to Capitol Fire Training for running through it step by step.

Save this one for the next time sill loading isn't an option.

Capitol Fire Training runs both the Sterling FCX Escape System and the Stealth Personal Rescue System because when the situation demands a bailout, having the right system for the right scenario isn't optional.

The FCX delivers controlled, reliable descent for structural firefighting applications. The Stealth is purpose-built for personal rescue when every second counts. Two tools, fully dialed, ready when it matters most.

This 5:1 haul system is built with Sterling 11mm Sync Rope, efficient to rig, reliable under load, and exactly what technical rescue training demands.

Big thanks to CalFire for showing us how it's built and run in the field.

Movement like this doesn't happen by accident.

The Triad 11.9mm is built for exactly this kind of work, a hybrid kernmantle/double-braid construction that gives you the roundness you want for SRS with the flexibility to run clean through mechanical devices and hitchcord systems. Zero sheath slippage, low elongation, and a low-profile splice that passes smoothly through friction savers so nothing's fighting you on the way up.

Certified to EN 1891 (A) and ANSI Z133. Built to work as hard as you do.
