Fast Rope Training

[itsequalsthr33]

That looks to fucking cool

[1341551]

stupid question but how much does all their equipment weight that they have on??

[bennienetter]

@1341551 looks like it's not complete armor...so maybe around 45-50 pounds extra.

Mr101AA are you retarded? can you fastrope better than them? and actually you do stand up to fastrope!

[littledevilchris666]

this isnt fast roping anyway its swarming

[osakakokujin]

Mr101AA your comments are silly man. Give them marines some respect!

[weWILLskate]

That's the k-bay base? I used to dick around on the obstical course on the other side

[Mr101AA]

@cypressslipper we don't sit we duck walk. But who cares right? I guess you should leave the fast roping to the ARMY then huh?

[cypressslipper]

This was the first time most of these Marines ever went down the Rope. I'm laughing at most of them, but try to encourage them some to. Mr101AA, your a fag. These guys were better they're first day in the fleet then you will ever be. Just cause they're Marines! Enjoy your shitty life watching youtube and making comments and yes. We do stand up to fast rope out of helo's. We don't sit down and go like a bunch of Donkey's. Like Mr101AA sits down to pee!

[Mr101AA]

I would expect the Marines to train more profficiently. I guess I was wrong. If I posted this video I would take it down because you guys look like crap. The Blackshirts would be having a heart attack watching this. I don't know what kind of Helo you would be standing up in when exiting.

P.S. Your guys are sliding down that rope like they are going to fall or die.

[Orangebike666]

I feel like these videos make the height seem small even though from that height it still makes you woosie at first sight.

[scotty3341]

is this an air assault course?

[zer0dahero]

nice training but they are training wrong. A about 2 feet Just before you hit the ground, you MUST let go the rope and get away from it. If they do it this way from a actual bird, they have a surprise coming when the rope recoils on them, knocks them down and the next guy lands on them. train as you fight, huah?

[DOSDestroyer]

@zer0dahero

It is the U.S. Military.

[zer0dahero]

@DOSDestroyer it appears to be so. This is probably the very first time thie guys are doing this and its very probable they are doing it for fun and not cause it's their actual job to fast rope. In the US Army. we tend to train soldiers on tasks who's job isn't to do said tasks just so they get a taste of it. So they look like crap training. Air assault units train this taks much differently than shown here.

i know you haven't said this in 4 months, but just so you know fast roping isn't the speed of it it's the type of rope with and how it's made and it's training to. speed comes later.

I hate to be a grammar troll but please correct our comment because no one can read it thank you.

[MotoXYZ450f]

The point is to do it properly, not fast. fast rope is just a way to ascend from a certain height that's faster then rappelling.

[MotoXYZ450f]

It's a Training video dumbshit, obviously they have no experience doing it or they would call the video professional fast rope. It's people like you that piss me off if your going to leave your opinion somewhere think about what you fucking say first. from your vocabulary I can tell you aren't very intelligent (Obviously) my point is if your going to say something as dumb as you did, read it over, dumbass....

[TheHardGainer]

That looks wicked but it must be so much scarier once your up there.

[Q3HackerPolice]

We were forced to climb ropes in our last PE session and when coming down the 5m rope, I tried to fast rope without gloves and got massive rope burn on my hands.

[intelegens]

90ft...That is the height of the rope!

[frictionless1]

See the you tube video of the frictionless descender. Search for j-arms. This rappelling device will revolutionize the sport and rescue applications. There is always an easier solution.

[killer246]

how much ft is that? i bet its taller than it looks

[PCXPBOY]

i would land like the third guy... lol

[ghostbuster2007]

same lol
