Name: Tyrolean Traverse
Type of obstacle: Single attempt
Description: The Tyrolean Traverse is an obstacle where participants must reach the other side by crawling along the rope. The rope is fixed between 2 anchor points. The Tyrolean Traverse may be above water, and only in this situation, participants are allowed to crawl on top of the rope. In both circumstances, you must ring the bell at the end of the obstacle. If the tyrolean is above water, there’s a good chance you’ll need to swim after ringing the bell.
Rules: You need to ring the bell without touching the ground or water underneath the rope. The only situation where your feet can touch the water is if you are crawling form above the tyrolean. Failure to succeed leads to a 30 burpees penalty.
What is the length of the Tyrolean Traverse?
The distance of the Tyrolean Traverse is approximately 20 feet.
How high is the Tyrolean Traverse?
The height of the Tyrolean Traverse may differ from races, plus you must consider the curve of the rope. In general, it’s never higher than 7 feet at the beginning, and you could go as low as 1 foot from the ground in the middle of the Tyrolean.
