Giving voice to your needs or desires might be difficult in some situations, in or out of rope. Whether you need to express consent, share a concern or just indicate that you want to continue, we all have ways to speak without saying a word.

Let’s talk about race, culture and rope. Whether you want to discuss the fine line between appreciation and assumption or just want to hear perspectives on building more inclusive and welcoming events, this is a candid discussion to center marginalized perspectives and share space to build better communities.

This arms-out chest tie is based on a Japanese cord used to pull sleeves out of the way. This upper body harness affords the ability to suspend from front, rear or side attachment points suitable for pairs or self-suspenders and all body types.

This class is about what happens between the load and the hard point.

We will discuss different types of suspension equipment and options to attach to overhead hardpoints. We will review materials suitable for main support uplines and discuss their different risk profiles. Finally, we will demo and tie along a series of yokes and hangers with and without carabiners.
