How To Climb A Rope For The Tactical Games

How to climb a rope War HOGG style for The Tactical Games
This is the same technique I used when I was in the Infantry in the 82nd Airborne, at Ranger School, during Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS) in 7th Special Forces Group and threw-out my time in Special Operations.
War HOGG Tribe here is how I climb a rope and my foot lock technique. I still saw people struggling to climb a rope during The Tactical Game in both South Carolina and North Carolina 2019. Hopefully this building block technique will have you scurrying up the rope in no time.
War HOGG Tactical Rope Ascending / Descending Technique - In this video I demonstrate a rope climbing and descending technique that could be useful for athletes of The Tactical Games.
This is the way I teach all my students and it starts the building block process for all War HOGG instruction. Start without any kit and build from there. Don't forget to train in the same equipment you are planning to use at the games. My intent is to pass info to the Tacticult Tribe to make you more successful at The Tactical Games
1. Reach your hands up high and secure the rope
2. Pull your legs up high with the rope on the outside of the left foot
3. With the right foot hit the rope with the outside of the right foot so that the rope goes over the top of the left foot and step down with the right foot thus locking the rope with your feet
4. Lift your legs up as high as you can and use the power of your legs to drive upwards
5. To descend, open your feet to control your rate of descent
6. About 2 feet from the bottom of the rope, remove your feet and spread them about shoulders with apart as not to roll an ankle on any rope laying on the ground.
