Vorwort 2012.Indd =gj]ogj\ Creative Technology. We’ve pulled out all the stops for 2012. The new EDELRID collection combines innovative engineering, made in Germany, with outstanding creativity. We feel that this is the best EDELRID collection yet. ÓÍ 2012 sees the introduction of our patented DuoTec technique, which ËÓ marks a further milestone in innovative rope manufacturing. The two new additions to our Entrance Line feature this technique for ÌÓ making bi-colour ropes. Needless to say, both the Viper 9.6 mm and the Boa 9.8 mm are manufactured in accordance with the stringent ÌÍ bluesign® standard. ÌÑ With the Cable Vario, EDELRID is once again setting new standards for via ferrata safety. It’s the first ever via ferrata set where braking resis- ÍÍ tance can be individually adjusted according to the weight of the user. This development is going to revolutionise the future of via ferrata sets. ÎË EDELRID’s new ice tools cover all aspects of winter mountaineering. ÏË Their intelligent, modular design means that they can be adapted to suit all routes and conditions. ÏÏ EDELRID helmets go from strength to strength. Two new models, ÐË Shield II and Zodiac, continue the winning formula of innovative tech- nology, attractive design and outstanding comfort. ÑÓ Climbing shoes have formed an important part of the EDELRID portfolio ÑÍ for two years now. 2012 sees the addition of four new models. The Sigwa is a top-class shoe with superb edging stability and optimal sensitivity ÒÓ in the toe area. ÊÓÍ The EDELRID developers have designed a completely new product ran- ge: alpine rucksacks. Two new technical packs provide a secure, positi- ve carry and a raft of sophisticated features. As you would expect, they benefit from EDELRID’s unique design for instant brand recognition. EDELRID clothing incorporates casual, comfortable styling with robust climbing-specific detailing. The new range includes several pieces in technical performance fabrics. See, for example, the Commander soft- shell pants – an essential item in anyone’s outdoor wardrobe. We’re proud to present such a comprehensive collection of innovative products and look forward to a successful 2012 season. =gj]ogj\ ~ ħ æxuurshvduhhfrðiulhqgo|åð eoxhvljq hvshfwlqjwkhhqylurqphqw Quality and safety are the key to making responsible and innovative fhuwlhg high-performance ropes. EDELRID has been following this maxim for the past 149 years. Our ropes and experience in manufacturing them are the heart and soul of our long-established brand. urshv To further extend our quality and safety standards, we have been working with bluesign® technologies ag from Switzerland since 2009. We are the first rope manufacturer to adapt our ropes to meet the tough demands of the bluesign® standard. The bluesign® stan- dard is the most stringent environmental standard for the produc- tion of functional textiles. It is independent, internationally recogni- sed and based on the five principles of sustainability. These include resource productivity, emissions protection, safety at work and con- sumer protection. The bluesign® standard’s goal is to follow these five principles throughout the whole textile manufacturing chain. EDELRID has set new industry benchmarks for innovative and su- stainable rope production. All the materials used to make our ropes are bluesign®-approved fabrics. We can therefore guarantee as few pollutants as possible without making any compromises in terms of functionality, quality and design. Our ropes carry the bluesign® pro- duct label thanks to their combination of certified source materials and our advanced rope production facilities in Isny. The bluesign product label is a sign of quality. It guarantees an eco-friendly ma- nufactured product that is low in pollutants and safe for heath and the environment. As such, we have responded to consumers’ natural demands for safe, environmentally friendly and sustainable products. Ë eoxhvljqħ Three years of bluesign® allow us to draw on in-depth experience of sustainable rope production. By converting all our rope production to the tough demands of the bluesign® standard we were able to make the following efficiencies when dyeing sheath yarns: ī ËÝÏËĕ ī ÝÑÒĕ ī ÝÏÌĕ ī ÝÏÌĕ rqyhqwlrqdourshsurgxfwlrq eoxhvljqħfhuwlhg surgxfwlrq For EDELRID this represents a further step towards a sustainable future. We have consistently pursued the task of pushing forward sustainable rope production so that we can continue to inspire trust in the future. We do not consider these measures a virtue, but a na- tural response to demands of the modern world. As the inventor of the kernmantel rope, we continue to set new stan- dards. We can now confidently say that our ropes are eco-friendly. eoxhvljqħ Ì FmjÜ;qfYea[ÜIgh]kÜ PgmjÜGYkkagf GjgÜCaf]Ü The newest manufacturing technology and a highly elaborate finishing process are the characteristics of the Pro Line.

V Praze, dne …....................................... podpis diplomanta Evidenční list Souhlasím se zapůjčením své diplomové práce ke studijním účelům. Uživatel svým podpisem stvrzuje, že tuto diplomovou práci použil ke studiu a prohlašuje, že ji uvede mezi použitými prameny. Jméno a příjmení: Fakulta/katedra: Datum vypůjčení: Podpis: Poděkování Tímto bych chtěl poděkovat především doc. Jiřímu Balášovi Ph.D. za odborné vedení při práci a Ladislavu Žákovi za umožnění tvorby v lezecké oblasti, dále své rodině za podporu během psaní závěrečné práce i celého předchozího studia. Abstrakt Název: Posouzení validity hodnocení klasifikace obtížností v nové bouldrové oblasti. Cíle: Cílem této práce je posoudit validitu klasifikace obtížnosti výstupů při boulderingu v nové oblasti. Metody: Ověření klasifikace obtížností prováděl soubor šesti mužů a čtyř žen. Hodnocení probíhalo během jedné kontinuální návštěvy skal s individuální dobou odpočinku mezi problémy. Lezci klasifikovali 10 výstupů okamžitě po dokončení jednotlivého výstupu a individuálně, bez možnosti radit se o svých odhadech. Navrhovaná obtížnost výstupů pro klasifikaci se pohybovala mezi obtížnostmi 12 až 17 IRCRA. Výsledky: Průměrné hodnocení klasifikace obtížnosti cest vyšlo o 0,89 bodu IRCRA vyšší než prvotní návrh s výskytem drobných rozdílů mezi muži a ženami. Vliv výkonnosti lezců na jejich hodnocení obtížnosti je statisticky nevýznamný.

    10 MELLOBLOCCO ®10 10 years of Melloblocco ABOUT MELLOBLOCCO ® “Melloblocco ®, international boulder meeting”, is the largest outdoor bouldering meeting in the world. The idea was born in 2003 and in 2004 its first edition was organized by the Lombardy Mountain Guides, , President Ettore Togni and promoters Nicolò Berzi e Michele Comi, then by the Valmasino Municipality, Major Ezio Palleni, and recently by the Valmasino Tourist Association, President Giacomo Sertori. The meeting takes place on the many boulders scattered in Val di Mello and Val Masino (in the province of Sondrio, in Northern Italy), in a beautiful natural scene, only 140 km north of Milan. Every year new areas are added, where the participants feel the unique emotions of bouldering with the best world specialists, trying together to solve boulder problems of all difficulties. In order to motivate the strongest male and female athletes, a bunch of new problems are selected every year – based on their beauty and high or extreme difficulty, each associated to a money prize which is shared by the few who send the problem. All participants who have enrolled in the Melloblocco ® may try to send the money-winning boulders and all of them may win pieces of technical gear or clothing offered by the sponsoring companies during the event closing ceremony. During Melloblocco ® concerts, exhibitions parties and video shows are a great opportunity for climbers to share their passion and chill-out. The media, too, take their opportunity to take pictures, share views and to interview the strongest boulder specialist in the world. SOME FIGURES ON MELLOBLOCCO ® Melloblocco ® takes place every year during the first week-end of May.
