  1. hi mate, it would help if you knew the following, but if not you will be shown how to do them on the course. Also make sure you feel comfortable climbing in spikes. clove hitch, running bowline, timber hitch, and cow hitch you should only have to do a tip tie, a butt tie, and a balance, then abit of lowering from a pole. hope this helps mate.
