Climbing Tools: Rappelling in moderate to high winds,

Another top-tip - not unlike your tip at the end is to make a "rope bomb" - wrap the rope up into a ball from ends to anchor then chuck it over. Works well.

First off, nice video Mike. Two things to add; one thing I've found when throwing a rope down is throw the half of your lap coil closest to your anchor first and then the ends down second and they will carry the top half down off of ledges and such. The other thing is if you are using the "holster method", make sure the rope comes off the top of your coil inside your sling and out of the front of that sling loop otherwise you may fight tangles all the way down.

Being rather windy here in Scotland and wet and muddy, I have found that stuffing the rope into a bag the same way as you would stuff a throw bag for water rescue works well. The bag is slung below the climber on a sling, we use it in canyoning as well.

Good videos Mike keep it up.

I skipped from 3:20 to 14:10, so I did recover almost 11 minutes. I figure, why rappel when there are wing suits?
