Rope Rescue Techniques


The Personal Skills Rescue Workshop (PSRW) is a 7-day course with no prerequisite required, although should not be mistaken for a beginner program.  The PSRW is for those that can’t get enough time over the edge or on the ropes and is designed for the serious rope rescuer wanting to improve their personal rope rigging skills.  

This class is sponsored by Ropes that Rescue (RTR), a comprehensive rope access consulting firm and comprehensive rope rigging school like no other.  RTR provides Rope Access Training courses in a small class setting for intensive one-on-one training at surprisingly low costs!


What People Say about the PSRW:


Physics and Safety in the Vertical Realm: This class is considered by previous students to be the most interactive and enjoyable.  The PSRW begins with simple, yet valuable, lessons on physics and safety in the vertical realm.  Then the fun begins with multiple rope stations to keep practitioners busy all day.


What You Will Learn in the PSRW:


This course sets the standard for technical rope rescue training and is an NFPA requirement for anyone who is part of a rope rescue team. It builds on high angle skills learned in Technical Rope Rescue applications.  

  • Valuable, yet simple definitions for belays, self belays, conditional belays and conditional self belays and how these differ in their engineering.  

  • Proper orientation on personally carried gear such as ascenders and descenders, self belay devices, Purcell prusiks, the all valuable AZTEK kit and other items essential to safety in the vertical realm

We move into practical and fun-filled days where multiple one-on-one rope stations keep the practitioner busy throughout the day.


What’s Included in Class:



  • Personal Knotcraft Skills:

    • Students learn the difference and the risks associated with the various types of belays including belays, self-belays, conditional belays and conditional self-belays  

    • Very strong emphasis is on knotcraft as students are tested throughout the course on their ability to tie under pressure and proficiency in knotcraft, which is required to SAVE LIVES IN URGENT SITUATIONS!


  • Find the Patient in the Wilderness:

    • On the final day of the PSRW, students will work together as a team to discover, medically treat, package and extricate a patient hidden in a secret location in the wilderness.
