Below are two YouTube videos for you to watch. Khalipa gives a great tutorial...most of which ya'll have heard us discuss when we've worked on rope climbs before. The 2nd video is good to watch because the instructor is discussing what to do with the other person as an example.

Keep in mind Khalipa's recommendation of wearing tall socks or a shin guard. Odds are you'll get some skin burns without them, using this technique. The way I personally do it...the rope is always outside my legs and thus no burn.
