French Cave Diving Stretcher

Back


April 13, 2008, BOURG SAINT ANDEOL, ARDECHE THE FRENCH AID SPELEO PRODUCED A DIVING OF EMERGENCY For almost 3 years, the French Caving Rescue work on a new generation of diving stretcher. Our desire is to make the hyphen between caving and diving, so we are naturally parties to a stretcher. Using this basic element, we did it evolve to intervene further and further and more and more profound. Today, this stretcher corresponds to our needs. Its lightness enables it to be used in very siphons away from the entrance. The diving technique has evolved rapidly in recent years-democratization recyclers, use of gas for deep diving, to go further and further. The use of these techniques in cave diving pushed us to create a concept to intervene in these new configurations. Since 2 years, we made many years in different cavities. The last Baume des Anges (Vaucluse) has served to validate the complex dives (use of gas-based oxygen and helium). We evacuated one victim on 450 m with a low point at -54 m. At the moment, the French Caving Rescue is the only one who can perform this type of evacuation. An exceptional diving: 1400 m distance under water, more than 4 hours of diving for the victim and his 6 companions.
