A practical, hands-on course for experienced climbers who want to take their safety skills to the next level. You'll learn how to problem-solve real scenarios — from escaping the system and assisted hoists, to abseiling with an injured partner and dealing with common crag emergencies.

Ideal for trad and multi-pitch climbers, this course focuses on efficient, adaptable techniques using the gear you already carry. Build confidence, improve your decision-making, and be ready when things don’t go to plan.
