Abstract
A training apparatus for fast-rope training includes a platform-supporting structure having one or more containers and at least one platform configured for use in fast-rope training. At least one attachment is provided for attaching a fast-rope. The platform-supporting structure is supportable by a surface. The at least one attachment is located higher than the platform and spaced laterally from the platform-supporting structure such that the at least one attachment overhangs the surface so a fast rope can hang from the at least one attachment, past the platform and toward the surface.
Claims20
A fast-rope training apparatus comprising:
- a platform-supporting structure comprising a plurality of containers;
- at least one platform configured for use in fast-rope training,
- wherein the platform-supporting structure is supportable by a surface,
- wherein the at least one platform extends outward from the platform-supporting structure such that the at least one platform overhangs the surface, and
- wherein the plurality of containers are pre-fabricated containers each having its own structural integrity prior to construction of the platform-supporting structure.
A fast-rope training apparatus comprising:
- a platform-supporting structure comprising a plurality of containers;
- at least one platform configured for use in fast-rope training;
- and
- at least one attachment for attaching a fast-rope,
- wherein the platform-supporting structure is supportable by a surface,
- wherein the at least one attachment is located higher than the at least one platform and spaced laterally from the platform-supporting structure such that the at least one attachment overhangs the surface so a fast-rope can hang from the at least one attachment, past the at least one platform and toward the surface,
- wherein the plurality of containers are pre-fabricated containers each having its own structural integrity prior to construction of the platform-supporting structure, and
- wherein the at least one platform comprises at least one skid;
- and
- wherein the skid comprises a generally horizontal bar running parallel with the adjacent edge of the platform, the horizontal bar being lower than the platform surface and spaced laterally outward from the platform edge.
A fast-rope training apparatus comprising:
- a platform-supporting structure comprising a plurality of containers;
