There are a few styles we will discuss: a 'gunslinger'\, a futo (or bound leg)\, and a hip harness. At BRE\, we will discuss the elemen ts important to creating the lower body harness such as risk profile\, w hat is comfortable (or uncomfortable)\, and the purpose of the harness t o help to decide which type of harness to chose. We will also cover a pa ttern for a suspendable hip harness\, a gunslinger\, and a futo if time allows. But more important than the patterns\, we will discuss why/how a nd placement choices.\n\nIf you missed the earlier classes on single col umns\, frictions\, and connecting rope\, come right at 3pm so we can go over those skills again. If you'd like to help TA (and help a newer grou p learn some of the skills)\, please reach out!\n\nFor those who want to drill or learn their single columns\, here are two of my favorite tutor ials: \;https://vimeo.com/143109618 \;(Shay w/ a larks head SC) and\nhttps://crash-restraint.com/ties/66 \;(Topologist's Somerville Bowline).\n\n\n\nAnytime during a Boundless event\, please feel free to opt out of the facilitated activities and tie in the designated areas (g enerally the back half of the club).\n\nBring your rope\, safety cutter\ , snacks\, and your water bottle. Dress code is something you can tie an d/or be tied in. If you are staying for the event following BRE\, please bring something you can change into. Generally\, Sanctuary has a 'dress to impress/make an effort' dresscode for most evening events.\n\nWhat i s the Boundless Rope Experience?\nWe aim for:\n\n A learning and labbin g environment to teach one another and explore rope in community\n An i nvitation to make new friends who are interested in rope\n A body neutr al and welcoming event for all\n A sober\, fun\, and potentially sexy ( but not sexual) space\n Embracing all types/genres of rope without judg ment so long as practices are consent-forward and mitigate risk of injur y\n\nEvery month\, MxBliss will facilitate a class with the aim of spark ing conversation/debate\, sharing information\, and encouraging explorat ion. While framed as a series\, you are free to drop in at any time in t he series. Except for the Suspension Class\, no pre-requisites for labbi ng. Also\, a tying partner is not required for any of the classes as mos t technical skills we are covering can be self-tied.\n\nBoundless Rules: \n\n All partnered rope must be prenegotiated prior to any play/labbing /scene\n Uplines must be reinforced (reinforced jute or hemp) or synthe tic (Posh\, nylon\, MFP\, or other rope rated for marine\, climbing\, or rescue)\n Normal Sanctuary rules about prohibited play: i.e. No neck r ope\, breath-\, race-\, rape-\, or blood-/scat-/wet- play\n No mind alt ering substances during Boundless.
