Climbing techniques – assisted hoist

Climbing Techniques | | February 1, 2011 4:59 pm

If you find yourself in a position where your second is completely stuck, this video from MLTUK provides useful instruction on helping them out with an assisted hoist.

Assisted hoist from Steve Long on Vimeo.

Watching videos or reading climbing techniques is not a substitute for proper instruction. Climbing can be a dangerous activity. We would always recommend that you seek out professional instruction before attempting any of the techniques that we demonstrate.

This video is from Steve’s ‘Self rescue for climbers DVD’. Available from his web site: Safety Steve

It's good to share!
