Sinossi

Cave Gear Guide offers a comprehensive look into the world of speleological equipment, emphasizing the critical role that standardized gear plays in caving safety. Unlike general outdoor sports, caving presents unique challenges, requiring equipment specifically designed for extreme underground conditions. The book addresses the vital need for cavers to understand and adhere to international equipment standards, moving beyond the assumption that any outdoor gear is suitable for cave exploration. One intriguing fact is that many accidents are directly linked to equipment failure or misuse, highlighting the importance of proper gear selection and maintenance.

 
The guide progresses logically, starting with the historical evolution of caving gear and moving through core concepts like load ratings and material fatigue. Individual chapters then delve into various equipment categories, such as ropes, helmets, and lighting, providing detailed overviews of relevant standards and testing protocols. This approach bridges the gap between technical specifications and practical application, ensuring cavers of all levels can make informed decisions.

 
Ultimately, Cave Gear Guide aims to promote a culture of safety within the caving community by providing a solid foundation of knowledge.

    Due to the difficulty to find a job in his city, Goran chooses the type of career that changed his life. He started to work on a cruise ship in the hospitality industry in 2013. He has three contracts in three different cruise ships. He considers this experience the most difficult but also the most valuable that life has taught him. Working on a vessel requires huge sacrifices like being miles away for more than half a year from family and friends, working with different nationalities and cultures, brutally heavy pace of minimal ten working hours every day and often even more without normal sleeping hours but on the other hand a piece of relaxation that makes it very special such as travelling to various attractive world tourist destinations and creating unforgettable friendships and adventures. Because of his soccer dream, he left the cruiser in 2016 together with Elizabeth from Peru (back then his girlfriend, today his wife) and since 2017 they live in Munich, Germany. From the first day spent on the ship, during all the rich experiences and adventures until the last disembarkation, through magical Peru and a special proposal on the beautiful Machu Picchu to the current life in Germany, he continues to explore new places and shares his soccer passion. Ship life inspired him to write this book and motivate people in achieving their biggest goals because he strongly believes that everything is possible if the person really wants it.
