This is your moment to polish those suspension line skills or to get a first view into how to lock lines.

We will practice locking off on carabiners, rings, and bamboo. We will also try the most common suspension line attachments on harnesses. You will get some tips on efficient lifting techniques. In this hands-on class, you will practice locking lines both under light and heavy tension. Bring your suspension line questions!
