I have done a small amount while working with experienced arbs and would like to learn it properly, so will look at getting a cs41 course booked.

 

I'd like to have a good knowledge and some practise before doing the course, and its not likely to be soon.

 

How good is the course, does it cover just the absoute basics, box ticking for employers?

 

Any good online resources or videos?

Currently I'm only lowering smaller peices, I'd estimate upto 40kg. Todays example using a couple wraps to lower it from in the tree. Two wraps was too much, I was hoping it would run smoother.


Ofcourse with a groundie you wouldnt wrap for this size,


I should also get proper rigging gear rather than old climbing rope. I do have a steel carabiners though.

It's a basic Box ticking certificate with some good information. (Not actually done it mind but have read the syllabus, spoke to people that have)

 

Being mentored and time to practice is the only way to becoming good at rigging
