Top Rope rigging

This course will give you all the technical skills to set up Top Ropes outside. A Top Rope is where the rope is above you at all times when your climbing. Its a really fun and safe way to get into outdoor climbing. On the course I teach you some of the same skills I teach people wanting to become instructors.
