In Japan there is a unique rope access technique.

We are rope access specialists in Japan and our single rope technique allows peopleto move freely yet safely in the air.

I’ll explain the background of our SORAT technique.

・The SORAT technique was developed and improved as we conducted long-term and thorough building inspections and maintenance.

・The SORAT technique is used by building inspectors, not by construction workers.

・We use only one main rope and it doesn’t require any backup ropes.

・To reduce the risk of cuts, we always try to re-blay or deviate a rope.[m1] 

・We connect to test anchors and have 3 attachments (at least 2 attachments when a descender or one connector of a double lanyard has to be detached[m2] ), each having an independent, safety tested anchors.

Having 3 attachments, rigged with 2 anchors, is a fundamental standard of SORAT.
