Rappelling Workshop

Rappel Training Course

Overview

Rappelling is not only used for descending from multi-pitch climbs but also for quickdraw placement and retreat in lead climbing. While it's a convenient technique, many accidents occur during rappelling. This workshop will help you acquire the proper knowledge and skills to rappel safely.

If you want to practice rappelling in an outdoor field, you can do so at our Lead Climbing Beginner Practice Sessions.

Held monthly. Please check each month's event page, our Event Calendar, or our social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter).
