Personal, ladders to get me to the first branch if I can't reach it from the ground, climbing line and working strop...and get climbing...I think throw lines and big shots are great if your going for SRT but other than that it's just a case of getting your harness on and pulling yourself up the thing matey

Personally I would look to secure a job before leaving...iv never been but looked into it and been offered work...the reason I didn't go was I couldn't fund the flight as it was too short notice but what you will find, a company will help you with your visa, help set up a bank account and help find accommodation mate...alternatively you can do what my cousin and her partner did, saved up 5k between them, landed in NZ, brought a car and traveled bouncing from lodge to lodge untill there money ran out lol
