*FULL* Climbing Rescue Skills Training Day

Hey everyone,

In April a group of trip leaders (Amelia V, Amelia K, Linna & Emily) attended a Climbing Rescue Skills Course with some funding from the uni and the club, and now we want to bring those skills back to everyone!

We will head outdoors to Narrabeen Slabs and cover as much as we can, with a focus on the skills required for “Level 2 Climbing Trip leaders” and multipitching skills. Please see the following document for an outline of these skills:

UNSWOC Trip Leader Skillsets

Anyone with “Level 1” climbing skills who are looking to upskill feel free to sign up. Include in your sign up comment a detailed outline of your skills and a link to your Facebook (preferred) or phone number and we might give you a call if we have questions.

Bring any gear you have, particularly ascending/descending stuff, prusiks, pulleys, anchor building material in addition to regular sport climbing kit. Don’t forget food, water, sun protection, warm clothes etc.

You will at least need the following items (which you can rent from the club):

• harness
• helmet
• climbing shoes
• belay device + carabiner
• sling + carabiner
• prusiks (2x)

PS if anyone is available to help out with the training feel free to send me a message

Cheers,

Amelia K, Gabriel D
