His third adventure of the bravest ever played last Sunday Adventure Club hand over hand into the airy heights of cobweb-thin wires.
The Vote was decided: we drive to the climbing forest Darmstadt, which is advertising itself already on the home page with "The adventure in nature." And that being the intrepid adventurer nothing for us, we thought, and were all very excited. In the climbing forest to Darmstadt, and not in much closer ones, such as in Four home we are way down because there Nelli had a coupon. Good for you!
With some delay we were there, then about 11 clock, it's bustling with excitement, we had red spots on the face and at first everyone had to go to the bathroom. After we paid, we got our equipment handed out a fancy helmet, in which one could almost smell the sweat of the previous climbers, a climbing harness and safety rope (Cowtail). Then we went to the "Assessementparcour," a practice course, where we previously a briefing in the safety techniques and equipment received. For the fuse in the obstacle course then everyone was responsible, but it should be noted that even a small child would have the processes to remember: never be disengaged entirely disengaged only a rifle, then the other with the other hand, and the carbine are in opposite directions engage the safety rope, easy easy. After we had to laugh first and crinkly as disadvantageous for the boys of the chic harness squeezed the soft tissues, we went off.
After the practice course was our introduction over and we were allowed to go alone. accepted the recommendations of our coach, most of us courageously as first a red course. The scale: blue = easy, red = medium, black = hard as just skiing. And although we knew that one is assured and can actually pass anything, except perhaps that you get tangled up and either hanged or breaks a foot, we had (at least I) really scared.
For shorter people, ie people with 160 cm height, the Hangeldinger were also some really super far apart. There were loops, rings, tree trunks and a thousand other things, where you shimmy, climb, swing, slide, balance or could teeter. All in all a very exciting and unusual mode of locomotion. In particular, the arm and shoulder muscles were strained because they tended to cling and move too much force on the arms.
After the blue / red was followed by dark red course, there were even a Spiderman-experience, it swung from a rope in a net and had to climb it. At the end of each course, a cable slide led him back to safe ground, that latch-up and then screaming for huiuiuiiii in a beautiful arc below. A few of us completed then another red course, at the End of one of the biggest challenges was waiting, there was no zip lines but leaving it attached to his carbine on a rope, then daring should just jump down and hope that you will catch. Trapping worked with a technique similar to a seat belt when stress comes, there's a lock. Nevertheless, it was really a giant overcome simply to jump from about 10 meters from the tree and hoping that it will stop.
Meanwhile, many were already on the Black course. There were so exciting challenges such as the X Crossing, the climbing bars, the Hangelsprossen or the Giant Swing (which no male sex organ is meant). For some, a bad decision, as it turned out. When I finished the red and Nelli was asked from below, as it is, and whether I should come up, they shouted "Come Neeeeeiiiiin not high, it's hell ..." or something like that. The problem: When you were on the course, there was no turning back. Sink or swim, so to speak. Well, actually, my decision was clear, the black not dare already before but Nellis almost hopeless position at 15 meters altitude then encouraged me to stay down. As it turned out to be only thing in hindsight is probably a bit embarrassing. But not as embarrassing how crying and trembling from a Camp Type abseiling leave. That's why I stayed down, and I stand by it, yeah.
The very tough to load the death made obstacle course, we went right in the black again ne floor up, there were another 4 stations in the district, but which could also omit. Kalle, Saad, Filiz, Rachel, Flo and Moritz (I've forgotten anyone?) Ventured there anyway. From below, one could look great in their faces distorted by fear and apathetic staring, wide-open eyes. It looked at least not like fun.
moved there then some, all, fortunately harmless to injuries. Isabel burned his Fingers, because you slipped a rope from his hand, Moritz had nasty yellow blue purple green black spots on the upper arm of steel cord, a few bruises we all experienced.
frightening was the fact that you are always caught, how the zubrüllte "You're doing great! You can do it! Exactly! Chaka!" At times they came before him, like a seminar on team building or something. But even if the now completely transfigured romantic sound, it was good that we were not alone, because it was always someone in front of or behind someone who could cheer up if the power went out right in the obstacle course or we were afraid.
went extremely entertaining After five hours we returned to Mannheim to end the day then grilling for Saad in the yard. Conclusion: A very nice, hard day, thrill and adrenaline included. Great fun!
