Abseiling camp blog post by Lucas & Vitya!

Hey guys,Lucas and Vitya here! We will be talking about the abseiling that we did in camp!
So, basically abseiling is an activity that we climb down a wall with ropes attached to us so that we don’t fall and we wear a helmet,harness and gloves for safety. We have reflections that could be similar and might be not, so here are the reflections:

Lucas’s opinion/reflection: This is my first time doing abseiling. It was confusing when I first heard about abseiling but then I saw how it works. It looked very fun and exciting, Carsen (My friend/classmate) told me not to be nervous because you have all these ropes and safety gear. So i did it! It was a little pressuring but it was very fun! I tried it again and it was an amazing experience falling from three stories. I wish i could do it again, it’s also training for safety if there was an emergency. It was awesome fun!

Vitya’s opinion/reflection: This is also my first time doing abseiling too! When Allan (The instructor) said that we have to climb down a wall with a rope. I was kind of scared a bit. But then, when I finally done it, I wasn’t scared. Doing it was very fun when I’ve done it, but when I haven’t done it, it was scary. It was a great experience doing abseiling, it was very fun and exciting.

Abseiling blog post

 

As you can see this was one of the camp activities and this was called Abseiling. We had to put on harnesses, helmets and big dirty gloves.We had to go down from the 4th floor and in the beginning it was scary but in the end everyone had fun. Some people went twice on the Abseiling. It felt quite high when you stand at the top but then you just go down and you end up being fine and having fun. When you are near the bottom someone will be there to hold your waist and get you down safely. We think everyone was scared when you had to go down for your first time and we had to go down backwards to get to the wall so you could get down. We think everyone should try this out, even adults so you can have as much fun as we did.
