This tutorial video covers exiting an aerial silks belay loop by climbing up completely above it to untie it. This exit works from an s wrap or a z wrap belay, and it works best with a belay loop that’s fairly small. We often use this exit to exit from a knee belay but it works from other belays as well.
We always teach and explore this exit from the ground first, to understand the supports and what is possible. This tutorial covers tips for teaching and understanding this aerial silks transition.
