Offset/Highline Rescue Workshop – RTR

Offset/Highline Rescue Workshop

Tuition: $1750

For years, emergency rope rescuers and rope access technicians have asked for a training program on temporary rigging employing elevated rope tracking elements. The OFFSET / HIGHLINE RESCUE WORKSHOP is just the type of program where these elevated options can be explored in detail. The program looks at subtle, yet fundamental differences between the use of high-angle offsets and drooping and/or reeving highlines for canyon/industrial locations where abundant high anchors are plentiful. Therefore, this is NOT a program that explores highly tensioned spanning elements (like the Kootenay Highline System) where high- or full-strength connections are mandated at either end, but rather only a look at other low-tension highlines that can be used over gaps with higher anchorages. The OHRW is not an extensive highline workshop like the Advanced Skills Rescue Workshop (that program focuses on 100% highlines and the Kootenay Highline System).
