We are thrilled to unveil the details of the inaugural Australian – Just Get It Done! – Rope Access Challenge, promising to be an event like no other! Set against the backdrop of breathtaking setups, pulsating lights, and energizing music, this competition promises to be a spectacle like no other.

Drawing inspiration from acclaimed arborist competitions and the internationally renowned GRIMP rope access events, plus the added “Just Get It Done!” touch of colourful lights, good music and a celebratory atmosphere, this challenge aims to shine a spotlight on the extraordinary skills of rope access technicians across Australia.

Fastest Lady in Town

Fastest Gun in Town

Rookie of the Year (L1’s with less than 1000 hours logged.)

A Blast from the Past (Owners, Directors, Managers who no longer work on the tools OR technicians over 50 years of age.)

Note: Participants in the Blast from the Past category do not require current IRATA qualifications; however, they need to pass a basic competency test on the day if their qualifications have expired.

Manoeuvres

Competitors will showcase their skills through a series of exhilarating manoeuvres, as well as straightforward up and down the ropes, performing work-related tasks such as using an impact driver to put in screws, hand tools to replace nuts and bolts, hauling a bucket of water, and testing an anchor point.

Don’t worry if these tasks sound daunting; a crash course on all of the above will be provided during the pre-start toolbox talk meeting in the morning. We want all participants to feel confident and prepared as they tackle these challenges head-on.

Camaraderie & Community

This event isn’t just about competition; it’s about camaraderie and community. Just like the spirited gatherings witnessed at arborist events in Queensland and Victoria, the Australian – Just Get It Done! – Rope Access Challenge fosters a sense of unity and support among participants.

It’s a platform where industry brands come together to sponsor and support these exceptional talents, and where audiences gather to witness the incredible feats performed by these skilled professionals.
