It is now official. Rock Gibbs is the youngest certified SPRAT technician having passed his Level 1 evaluation this morning on his 18th birthday, June 30, 2022. Rigging for Rescue principal, Mike Gibbs, hatched the plan with Rock several months ago and a SPRAT training and evaluation was scheduled accordingly.
You have to be 18 years of age to be evaluated for a SPRAT certification, so Rock now has the novelty of being at worst tied for the youngest certified SPRAT rope access technician ever.
Happy birthday, son. And congrats!
