Elements of Rigging

$29.00

We caught up with Pat Rhodes to find out what makes up the elements of rigging.

About the Course

Elements of Rigging — Knots and Hitches, Pulley Systems (and their rules), Anchors, Reeving Systems, Highlines, Resultants and Force Vectors. While it is true that “an element” by definition can no longer be broken down, I felt it necessary to keep things as simple as possible without getting into the minutia. There is an art to learning as well as science and hopefully we made the proper jumps from one to the other.

What You’ll Learn

Inside Elements of Rigging, we’ll cover topics such as:

Knots and hitches

Pulley systems and their rules

Anchors

Reeving systems & highlines

Resultants

Force vectors

And more!
