Interested in learning to Rappel or maybe even Canyoneer?
This rappelling class is a great introduction to rappelling. Have fun and learn how to safely descend a rope! This class is appropriate for any skill level, and we can accommodate families as well. The class could also be used as a stepping stone to the sport of canyoneering – or possibly even climbing or caving (which also involve rappels). We will cover the following skills related to rappelling:
- Gear and Gear Strength
- Fireman’s Belay / Bottom Belay
- Site Safety
- Safety Check
- Communication
- Rappelling Technique and Instruction
- Including Adding Friction Pre-rappel, Mid-rappel and Locking Off
We will spend the morning learning and rappelling on single strand canyoneering ropes using the Sterling ATS descender.
