History of Abseiling, rules, equipment and details of Abseiling

October 23, 2021 By Live Sports

Abseiling is a sport and recreational activity in which participants descend a rock face using a rope. It was originally developed in Europe in the late 19th century in order to provide safe access down cliffs for naturalists, treasure hunters, and alpinists. As the activity grew in popularity it became an international pastime that is now practiced worldwide.

The first time, the games got popular in the United States, and then in the United Kingdom. The USA created the rappelling terms and both are understood, but, the sport is preferred correctly.

A short history of Abseiling sports

In the nineteenth century, before the advent of the modern abseil, people climbed up a rope to places where they could then dropdown. As a result, they had to climb the rope back up to get back to the top.

The source of the term rappel in reference is attributed by Roger Frison-Roche circa 1944, to the technique. It is a sport that starts with A.

Charlet devised the technique during an unsuccessful solo attempt of Petit Dru in 1876. In 1879, he managed to earn the summit of the Petit Dru in the company of two other hired Chamonix guides.

Abseiling Equipment

The sports Equipment consisted of an abseil rope that was attached to the rock by a carabiner. The abseil rope was then tied to the climber’s waist and a second carabiner was connected to the rope so that the rope could be lowered by the climber.
