Rope Climb Techniques (S-Method & Wrap Around Method)

How to climb a rope using the S-Method or the Wrap Around Method

[@luucid5734]

Got to give this man credit for climbing a rope like 7 times in a row just to explain how to do it

[@bighotdog3595]

Ye I couldn’t do that

[@RomboutVersluijs]

If you use the technique correct its all its mostly on the legs and they can handle it just fine

[@stoicnotsad]

Naruto didn't work that hard in the whole series except for barking

[@acid_1318]

You’d be surprised. When my Sgt showed me these techniques it became cake walk lol almost no effort is needed.

[@kingbrian3987]

​@@acid_1318was gonna practice this but that walk to some cake sounded better 😂

[@720pchannel]

This was EXTREMELY helpful. Well recorded, well explained. Thanks a lot

[@breezecardenas3941]

I wish KZbin was around when I was in junior high school back in the mid 90's. That rope climb was the toughest thing I had to do in P.E. Any other exercise or run or obstacle, no problem. But that rope climb was like kryptonite to me.

[@rally_chronicles]

Hey great video. The gym i go to got a new rope and I couldn't figure out how to get up. I watched your video and I was able to make it to the top on my first try using the S method. I was surprised that your instruction made it so easy. Great work. 👍

[@tallandiaye7449]

Merci

[@tallandiaye7449]

C intéressant

[@tallandiaye7449]

!

[@KennethMindar]

I thought I wouldn’t be able to climb the rope but using the S way helped me a lot and made it easier

[@jaysenobrien3992]

I tried your technique today and it actually works! I appreciate you showing this video, I never thought I could climb a rope as far as I did today! Thank you!

[@MrTrenttness]

This was great. My wife signed me up for a Spartan Race and I have'nt climbed a rope since I was a kid. This was simple and explained well.

[@gloriab4764]

MrTrenttness how long did it take you to learn to climb the rope for the spartan ?

[@dankmaul2019]

Extremely helpful I honestly didn’t know there was a technique to it 😂 thought never crossed my mind, thank you extremely helpful

[@bosswhale422]

had a dream about climbing a rope using the wrap around method. I never knew the wrap around method, or even how to climb a rope. I just remembered the dream, and decided to find out how to. Really helpful. Thanks!

[@reluctantroy]

Me watching a rope climb tutorial on my recommendations: Psst who needs a tutorial for rope climbing? 5 secs later after the video starts: *What is this wizardry*

[@comradewarnke3917]

lol

[@KevinBooker-ex5zs]

The ropes are durable and just like the ones at the gym. kzbin.infoUgkxTFxba6lNeHrZaHoY_LXe6ZzmMfaipnwu Caution: I bought the 50 feet ropes and they are long and heavy so make sure you have the space (I do have the space). If I was to do it again I would probably get a shorter version as 50 feet (25 feet each side) is a little long.

[@iniesta8856]

Thanks a ton dude. Playing only soccer, I have a lot more leg strength than upper body strength and this showed me how to properly utilize it. Thanks again!

[@JK-ur9qv]

There’s a third method called “Muscle up with raw arm power, minimal friction, and a dream” and it’s infuriating to watch your friend pull it off after you’ve struggled with this for ages

[@flora91161]

Me an aerialist watching you do Russian and French climbs 😭! I love it keep up the good work!!

[@MoPoppins]

Excellent video! You clearly & concisely demonstrated & explained everything-this is one of the best videos on rope-climbing techniques. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You’re an awesome teacher! Thank you! 🙏

[@Andy-ep3hv]

I ship off in a week to MCRD San Diego and I’ve never climbed a rope before. Watch this video everyday other day so I know what to do at basic training.

[@Jonathan-mf3nl]

it’s been a year more or less how’s it going ?

[@joshua-sd5or]

Yeah how's it going man

[@patrickchin8820]

Outstanding demonstration! Was able to easily apply these skills at my last OCR. Thank you!

[@o0oitzJimmy]

Always used the Wrap Around in the Corps, never done or tried the S Method. Great advise btw.

[@jeebandash758]

This video helps me a lot...Thank you sir..bcz of ur video I am selected in odisha excise constable...so again thank you very much...🙏🙏

[@jeebandash758]

This technique is very good and thanks for the video. By using this technique i got selected in excise constable..Many many thanks 🙏🙏...

[@quityourfuckincryin]

Just glad you're on our side. Action figure bro.

[@KidBiggums]

Watching this as I sit in ROM awaiting training at Brown Field. Thanks for this!

[@MCR_Slays.559]

Lol, I’m going to an Obstacle Training Ground with some friends today and I’ve never been able to climb the rope 🤣. I knew the theory of the S method but I could never actually do it! This will help a lot! Thanks!!

[@FezeeGoldenStriker21Vader]

Who else is watching this at bed?

[@মনপুরাএকটাদ্বীপেরনাম]

😃😃

[@Ghostysti]

[@Shalashaska016]

27 years old and Ive wanted to learn how to do this most my life so THANK YOU!!!

[@PurpleBox89]

....guilty.

[@devendrasinghshekhawat2184]

Thanks a lot gentleman , the S method actually worked for me .... Kudos to you !

[@allanlabrie]

This helped me a lot in my gym class. Thank you !

[@Epicaroo]

I’ve tried wrap around and struggle with it. I will try other method. I am a beginner but excited about this explanation. Thank you.

[@antonioschioppa5669]

I tuoi video mi hanno aiutato tantissimo a imparare la salita alla corda per superare una prova concorsuale...💪💪Great

[@blacksheep_edge1412]

I learned the wrap around method in boot back in '96. The instructor here completely loses his wrap on the climb and reapplies it after crunching his body towards his hands. When I was instructed on how to do it, we kept the wrap and only loosened the hold to move our legs up. It makes locking the rope back in place that much easier and quicker, should you start to lose your grip with your hands. Only someone who has spent an incredible amount of time in the gym getting muscles like this man, can completely let the wrap go and make it work.

[@SoldierDrew]

Same here and also graduated Sand Hill Infantry School, Dco 1/19, in 96. Drill Sgts Taurez, Swanson and Allen. Our C.C. was Bennet. Graduated Sabalauski Airassault School end of same year. Wrap around method was the strongest lock for me and it functions exactly as you describe.

[@alexanderthegrape5641]

Really well done Makes me wanna practice now Thank you

[@merdemoiii-7589]

I got AIC in a week and so I was worried about the rope since I’m assuming for the IPA I can’t fail the rope and I literally just did it at the o course at like 5PM lmaoo watching your demonstration helped so much, wish me luck boys

[@chris7570]

Man thanks for the detailed technique video! I have struggled with rope climbing since boot camp I still can’t get it right. Gravity will not allow me the time to practice! I recommend the Garmot boot

[@howardbaxter2514]

Finally a video I actually need recommended.

[@shitboxcentral]

I’m assuming this will require a lot of pull ups

[@aprilkuipers2461]

I was able to do it at my last OCR and I can't do a pull up at all. The S technique is great!

[@rithe07]

"Only 6"

[@bufferbuffer7320]

No, as you are supposed to push with your legs instead of pulling with your arms

[@bufferbuffer7320]

@@rithe07 Is the average every male adult should be able to do, at least.

[@ashc4167]

Random Guy on YT I can do 26 pull ups max and I’ve climbed rope with no legs just swinging a lot lol the rope was higher and I’ve slid down and got rope burn every time smh

[@fedorkalu8319]

Thank you. Indeed helpful. Watched it not for military training but for mountain climbing.

[@arivaisanen4561]

Great - it took only 40 sek from the beginning of the video to see how to do it. Thanks. Normally guys talk 15 mins first - love their voices.

[@StarlightDragon]

Thanks. I hadn't climbed ropes in a long time and I remembered it was something like this, now I remember the S method clearly. Good video

[@dopeymark]

That's the best rope climbing instruction I've ever seen.

[@sammas7440]

I did the wrap around method, but that was 40 years and 50 lbs ago. Thanks for the memories.

[@rolls_8798]

"But before we get started make sure that-" Was totally expecting him to tell us to subscribe. pleasantly surprised. subscribed.

[@bullinachinashop901]

Best explanation video I've seen, I definitely want to get this obstacle done at my first spartan race

[@Angieraquell]

Woo game changer!!! As soon as I watched this video I tried it and it worked like a charm.

[@bca-biciclindcuaxel7527]

Thank you for the video ! I am a cyclist and runner and I want to do Spartan Race too ! This video was great ! Respect from Romania !

[@GeneralDischarge]

Great vid. If anyone is looking for more we teach the inboard s method as wrap around.

[@anubis63000jd]

I was swimming with some friends, and we were making efforts to climb a 25ft rope swing up a tree. I have no training, but someone pointed out I was using my feet. I explained (on the rope) "Yeah.. It makes it so I don't need my hands as much" Then, showed them both my palms. "No hands." Turns out, I naturally use the S method. Thank you, I wasn't a 100% sure how to explain it. Also, it's not pleasant to use S method barefoot. Rope burn is an issue. I have never tried, but I assume wrap around is equally problematic for the top of your foot.

[@phobiccentaur4062]

About to join the royal navy and needed this thanks alot 👍👍

[@tylerross9706]

I just climbed a rope for the first time tonight thanks to this video. Thanks!

[@Retired_Retard]

I learned the wrap around method in at MCRD in 1971. Nobody used the J-hook method back then. Now it looks like the J-hook method is preferred. It is good that they still let you use the old school method. New is not always better.

[@kaylee2480]

Im so glad I found this before I went to Basics

[@violinoscar]

In the video it is said that it's not allowed to change methods at the top as this means releasing the lock and putting oneself at risk. The 'S' method releases the lock at every stage of the climb. As demonstrated; lift legs, lock, push with legs. Then repeat. It seems that this method puts the climber at risk at every stage. Am I right or am I missing something?

[@Vince-ko9bj]

I don't know how to climb a rope so thank you for posting this!

[@aba192]

S Method for the win I nailed this today with it, all the way to the top

[@DEVILxMAYxCRYx5]

I needed to learn this cause the rope climbing was the only thing I couldn’t do during the spartan race .

[@grantdunn88]

watched this video last year and i saw a rope at the gym and remembered the stuff from this and did it easily.

[@spacehuntress]

Im watching this video after watching Physical 100

[@humpfrey3277]

who tf disliked this video bro dude explains it all perfectly and its filmed good plus the dude climbed a rope like 9 times in a row tf you mad abt

[@richardbrown9138]

Robe climbing is one best exercise you can do for yourself! Great Video.

[@SimonM5]

I've been looking for these for ages thankyou👍

[@martyblack7151]

I was an Army Ranger and Trained with Force Recon...they are total bad ass. I went through Stage 4 Aggressive Cancer and believed God to survive it and promised God I would be in ultimate shape Run 10 miles do 20 pull ups 100 pushups and 100 sit ups and climb a rope 5X in a row....I was up to 5 pull ups 3.5 mile runs 75 pushups 80 sit ups. Before Cancer I weighed 187 pound dropped down to 105 lbs...God is so awesome he really cares about us if we speak positive and believe that he is helping us. I said the whole time I survived Cancer for 6 mo and beat it. Proverbs 18:21 Mark 11:23-24 and Romans 10:9-10 Doctors say I am a walking miracle! This video helps out a lot! Thx Rangers lead the way!

[@splatman7300]

I have zero intentions of climbing a rope any time soon, but this was helpful in my writing of a character trying to climb a rope

[@estherloveschickens9075]

Thank you! I have to climb a rope in a couple days for JROTC

[@AyushBisht20]

This was definitely Helpful, thank you,Sir 😊

[@parshuraamsannake9033]

Very useful information for beginners thanks

[@willhoneycutt2475]

Thank you this helped so much. Now I climb the rope easy now !

[@mhzanas9585]

Fact : No one explains better than marines

[@HarryPotter047]

Simple. Concise. Well explained. perfect

[@pushpalathagh1328]

It helped a lot before knowing these techniques i struggled a lot that's blisters on lrgs and hands but after using these method i have climed it 5 times in a row

[@abroamg]

Nice technique! I never figured out how to use my bottom half for climbing effectively so I don't use my legs

[@bobbyhill4118]

I can already climb ropes, I’ve been able to climb them ever since the 5th grade, but I wanted to see more techniques. I can wrap my legs around the rope or just pull with nothing but my arms and leave the legs dangling.

[@curiousme4737]

Wow cool method....I am of 5th class still I can do it!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you very much bro

[@nightmare69metalmatt52]

I'm a tree climber seen this method used never learned it till now see this vid an put my rope in a tree and was very happy with the results of this vid much love to the armed forces God bless

[@EmpressofChrist]

Watching this to prepare myself for the spartan race

[@shandy_6733]

thanks so much for sharing this tips ! i was called to firefighter physical test but dont know how to climb rope

[@kkooloo5781]

Very informative video .Covered all the points✌from England ♑

[@DanielSuh]

I prefer the wrap around method but the S-method is more practical when training for the Spartan race. The wrap around method is hard on my bare skin (leg) when doing it wearing shorts. Thanks for the sharing your technique!

[@fadedcametowasted9647]

God his chest arm and leg strenght is amazing

[@cutzz1928]

You mean back core and bicep?

[@dionishyseni8336]

Thank u man this gon help me flex at school

[@battlechampnik]

It was extremely insightful.

[@sum_kent08]

Hey mate. Australian digger here. We prefer the first method. But I can't master it. My boots keeps slipping when trying to lock it off. Any pointers?

[@thatadhdman3842]

I’ve gotten the technique down and everything and I have the strength to climb it, only issue I have is i’m not the best with heights and it’s a pretty high rope but i’m going to practice every day until I can do it.

[@davispetit1312]

I bet u took Marines back to memory lane. In 1989 we had to say, "Platoon 1095 Senior Drill Instructor Staff Sergeant Van Ordin. Uhh-Rah😎❤😎

No need for CGI this man's the whole package

[@marine102192]

Nice web belt...

[@saravananparaiyar]

great...thank you.i like "s" methode.

[@joshuaherring7246]

This was really helpful i didn’t know that climbing rope was mostly core

[@ravenleader5618]

Excellent tutorial.

[@tytsam72]

The first one is 'J' method instead of 'S' as mentioned here. Please correct if I'm wrong.

[@kirantulsie2056]

Wrap around method looks badass

[@MilitaristTurkcu]

Thanks for the examples,sir!

[@zacarribuffet8882]

Straight up couldn’t do the wrap around in bootcamp. Had to do the J hook/S method. And I never learned how to properly come back down

[@aegg9915]

Have you tried the Royal Marines knee method? Definitely quicker than these two ways.

[@adrianrutkowski8601]

Thank You Officer !

[@semmozhibharathi4270]

I am 14 and I went to climb rope . I did nothing *embarassed* I'll try this tomorrow for sure.👍

[@technicalmir2814]

This is so helpful thank you dir

[@newCoCoY6]

Any tips on baseline safety on rope thickness and on how many consecutive pull ups I need to be able to do before attempting this climb?

[@IO-zg8md]

Solid demo. 👍🇬🇧

[@manuelp6791]

Man this a big help for boot camp now I can practice this. I still haven’t left for boot camp but I will soon

[@Marlonhernandez777]

Question, what is the size of the rope,can i practice with any rope. Just asking for a friend
