What Do I Do With This Extra Bullshit??: An Upline Management Classup

You know your harnesses, you know how to get someone in the air, but now you have to deal with uplines. Where do I tie off? What can I do with the extra rope? Our answer is to use it as a tool to enhance your mutual experience in rope with your partner. In this class, we will show different tie offs and give some ideas of how you can use uplines to add to your suspension. We will run through drills to practice uplines and to get your brain thinking quicker and to start to train your brain to think of using rope for connection. Our goal is to create a sense of connection, elicit emotions while still maintaining clean lines for a safe rope suspension.
