Thanks for the help, I am an older guy but very excited over the saddle and climbing method.
Would like everyone\anyone's opinion on climbing class from REI or such. There is an outdoors store nearby that has climbing classes often if there is interest.
Oh and what about a platform\ROS ? Is it a good idea?
“Need” is a relative term but a platform or ROS is highly recommended! Both work, a lot of guys use both depending on the scenario. This is my first season in a saddle. I have a predator platform with a ROS on the way.
If SRT is your preferred method then the climbing class is certainly a good idea. Getting familiar with basic and safe rappelling techniques and knot tying is easier directly from a professional.
