Event info


Welcome to the advanced ropes course !

This course is taught by the wonderful Eddy Young from Youngs adventure solutions and is intended to teach members the skills they need for sea cliff self rescue (although these skills are applicable for all ares of climbing)

The course features skills such as:

  • Ascending a rope safely
  • Descending ropes safely
  • Abseiling with an injured climber
  • Assisted pulleys
  • Tying off belays plates
  • Lowering past a knot

meet at red brick at 6 am (I know I'm sorry 😭) where we will make our way to dancing ledge in Swanage for a sick day of safety and skills

course cost to you is £25 (this has been heavily subsidised), we will supply transport to and from Swanage and all the gear you need. All you need to bring is yourself, warm clothes, lunch and a can-do-attitude. Also feel free to bring your own gear if you want to learn more about how your own gear can be used (such as ascenders, tiblocs, roll n locks etc)

This is the Intermediate day session so this is intended for members who can lead belay, and have some rope skills such as lead sports, basic abseils etc (not intended for people who can't belay or have limited ropes experience as you likely won't get much benefit from this course, thank you)

Any questions? feel free to give me a shout, Peter, Safety & Skills
