If you’re a climber you SHOULD do a self rescue skills course. How are your self rescue skills? Be honest with yourself.. Are you already lead climbing but feel you could benefit from the knowledge of some Self Rescue Skills, for you and your partner if that worse case scenario ever occurred? It could be how to safely get yourself into and out of a sea cliff climb, or how to rescue a fallen and injured leader or second from a multi-pitch crag. Our Self Rescue Skills Course for climbers is something that every climber owes it to their partner to do and it will be the best money you ever spent if god forbid anything ever happened.
General topics covered include:
- Abseiling into a sea-cliff safely
- Getting yourself up a fixed line
- Descending and ascending past a knot on an abseil rope
- Hoisting a stuck/injured climber
- Escaping the system to perform a rescue/get help
- Getting a casualty off a cliff
We run these courses in Pembrokeshire or Snowdonia, and can easily (and would recommend) extending this to a two or three day course..
