Abseiling Stag Weekends
If you like the idea of throwing yourself off the side of a wall on your stag weekend, then you are going to love this stag weekend activity. Abseiling is an activity that climbers and cavers use to get quickly, easily and safely down from a pitch. Although not strictly a sport in itself, abseiling is certainly great fun.
What better way to celebrate an extreme stag weekend than by chucking yourself off a vertical wall attached to a rope which you’re sure isn’t thick enough to hold your weight. Once you’re in that gravity defying position, standing horizontally on a wall the only way is down and its up to you to descend as fast or slow as you like.
Why choose Abseiling for your stag weekend?
Abseiling or Rappelling is not actually a sport but more of a technique used by climbers to descend using a fixed rope. The reason it is a stag weekend favourite is that it is so much adrenaline fuelled fun, not to mention pant wetting, nail biting and bloody dangerous. Perfect!
Still haven’t convinced you on how much fun abseiling is? Well here’s what John from Bristol thought:
"Oh my god this rocks! I don’t even like heights but once you take the plunge, not physically but mentally, and you’re dangling 30 foot in the air with only a rope as your friend it certainly puts the wind up you. It was so scary I loved it and just wanted to do it again and again… like a human yoyo."
A dangerous technique such as abseiling requires specialised equipment and gear to ensure safety and minimise risk – including ropes, descenders, carabiners, climbing helmet, gloves, knee and elbow pads etc. But we won’t bore you with the details as on this stag weekend activity you will get expert tuition on navigating the wall, leaving you free to worry about how on earth you’re going to get down in one piece.
Abseiling stag weekends separate the men from the boys and guarantees an adrenaline fix - perfect for building up a thirst.
