The rest of the trips this term require proficiency in Single Rope Technique (SRT). So, coming to these sessions will give you a chance to go on trips this term without having to wait till next year. *Sessions* *will run every Wednesday from 1 – 4 PM at Prince’s Gardens (the park in front of Ethos) starting Feb 8th*. The following skills will be taught at your pace: 1. Ascending (prussiking) 2. Descending 3. Change-over (changing from ascending to descending mid-rope) 4. Deviation (by-passing a karabiner that deviates rope from obstacles) 5. Rebelay (switching to another rope at an anchor point) You don’t have to stay the whole duration or come to every session. They will be tailored to what you know. Most people take about 2 sessions to learn all the skills. Please join our WhatsApp group to get any immediate updates about the training sessions: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GQWF1ZlOVTk54ofa808IME Yours till I fail to rotate a shark, Kevin
