caption_attribution_description: English: The frog ascending system. This is a sit-stand system using two ascenders, one just above the seat harness and another which rides above and has loops (one large as depicted here or two smaller ones) for the feet. It is also attached to the seat harness as a backup.
context_page_description: Single-rope technique is a set of methods used to descend and ascend on the same single rope. Single-rope technique is used in caving, potholing, rock climbing, canyoning, roped access for building maintenance and by arborists for tree climbing, although to avoid confusion in the tree climbing community, many have taken to calling it "stationary" rope technique.
