... the figure-Eight follow through [is] actually the exact same knot as the figure-eight on a loop, except for how you tie it. Instead of tying it with a loop, you first tie a figure eight into the rope and then run the end through your harness and then you "follow-through" to complete the knot.  1, record 1, English, - figure%2Deight%20follow%20through

Figure-eight followo-through. This variation of the figure eight loop is widely used for climbing for tying on to the rope and for anchoring non-climbing member to a team. A stopper knot should be added.  4, record 1, English, - figure%2Deight%20follow%20through

Figure eight follow through. There are two versions of this knot; each has a different function. One allows you to join two lines; the other permits you to create a loop of any size in the end of the rope. It’s a bit slower to tie than a bowline, but just as effective.  5, record 1, English, - figure%2Deight%20follow%20through

The French concept "assuré" designates the member of a climbing team who is attached to the belayer by a rope. This person is usually referred to as the "climber", who is belayed. However, "climber" is a much broader concept designating anyone who climbs.  1, record 2, English, - SANS%20%C3%89QUIVALENT%2FNO%20EQUIVALENT

When individual performances are inhibited by the presence of others, the Ringelmann effect is said to have transpired. The implications in sport are evident: individuals’ performances should decrease as the size of the team in which they are competing increases.  2, record 4, English, - Ringelmann%20effect

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 2 CONT

Ringelmann noticed that, as you added more and more people to a group pulling on a rope, the total force exerted by the group rose, but the average force exerted by each group member declined. The Ringelmann effect thus describes the inverse relationship between the size of a team and the magnitude of group member's individual contribution to the accomplishment of the task.  3, record 4, English, - Ringelmann%20effect

Effet Ringelmann: Effet découvert par Max Ringelmann. Ringelmann a réalisé une expérience où il demandait à des jeunes hommes de tirer le plus fort possible sur une corde, seul, par deux, par trois ou par huit. [...] Les résultats ont montré que plus le nombre de personnes augmente, moins les efforts individuels fournis sont importants.  3, record 4, French, - effet%20Ringelmann
