Sinopse

Crag Winds Defy tackles the critical yet often misunderstood aspects of climbing safety, focusing on rope and anchor systems. It bridges the gap between theoretical physics and practical climbing, highlighting how a deep understanding of dynamic forces and material properties can significantly reduce the risk of accidents. Unlike rote memorization of techniques, the book emphasizes critical thinking and informed decision-making, crucial in unpredictable climbing environments.

 
Did you know that even a seemingly simple knot can drastically reduce a rope's strength? Or that anchor selection varies greatly depending on rock formations and loading scenarios?

 
The book’s structure systematically builds from basic rope mechanics to complex anchor systems and real-world applications like lead climbing and rescue scenarios. By using experimental data, accident reports, and expert opinions, Crag Winds Defy offers a rigorous analysis of climbing safety. It's a valuable resource for climbers, instructors, and safety professionals seeking a science-based approach to minimizing risk in this exhilarating sport.

    Her first night in a Tanzanian tent began with a prowling lion’s roar. Will the savage terrors open her eyes to an unseen world? 
    Sue Tidwell lived in awe of Africa’s extraordinary wildlife. After years spent appreciating the animals in her imagination, the tenderhearted American hated the idea of joining her husband on a big game hunt. And getting attacked by blood-sucking tsetse flies the moment she stepped off the plane gave no hint of the mind-blowing change of perspective in her future…  
    With her initial animosity turning into curiosity as they breathlessly tracked dangerous beasts, Sue formed a surprising bond with their young, female, government-assigned game scout. And as she became entranced by the tales and wisdom from the Masimba Camp crew, she was humbled by the mystery of the vilified safari and the people who relied on it for survival.  
    Supplementing her own experiences on the elephant-rutted roads with local insights and scientific research into conservation efforts, Tidwell explores how her preconceived beliefs sluiced away under the deluge of reality. And with an evocative narrative peppered with self-deprecating humor, vivid imagery, and over ninety photos and illustrations, you’ll emerge forever changed by the truths this greenhorn found buried in a rugged and romantic landscape. 
    Cries of the Savanna is an unflinching and passionate memoir. If you like awe-inspiring adventures, truth revealed through laughter, and life being stranger than fiction, then you'll adore Sue Tidwell's brush with the wild.

    Rugby Was F***ing Better When -...

    According to legend and a cursory look at Google, rugby was created in 1823. When William Webb Ellis allegedly picked up the ball, and ran with it, rugby was born. How true this is, we don't know. But what we can almost guarantee is that no matter how the game started, even after just one day of the sport being invented, some people will have said that it was better in the f***ing old days.
    As progressive as rugby has become (both on and off the field) many feel that rugby 'yesterday' was better than rugby today. But do the stats back this up? Do the ill-informed opinions of the book's author back that up? This book examines various aspects of the game, and judges whether rugby's best days are behind, or ahead of it.
    Let the debate commence . . .
    Hilarious, off-beat and (surprisingly) insightful, this is the perfect gift for rugby fans all around the world.
