What in the world is Bull Rigging? Those of us not familiar with the term might be picturing grabbing a hold of a rigging configuration by the shackle and hanging on for an eight second ride. As fun as that sounds, it is not Bull Rigging. In short, Bull Rigging is the term used to describe a method or system of rigging commonly used where a crane (mobile/overhead) cannot gain access. Bull Rigging is often referred to as drifting, "tarzaning," or just simply hand rigging. It is often used in concert with other rigging activities such as transferring a load from a structure to a crane hook or vice-versa.

Since 2012, the ITI Showcase Webinar Series has delighted more than 3,500 attendees with hour long training sessions on crane, rigging, lift planning, and other load handling topics. While a lot has changed in the world since 2012, we still haven't quite figured out time travel (close, but sadly this isn't horseshoes). Lucky for you, someone at ITI was smart enough to hit the "record" button (most of the time), and each session (there are even three in Portuguese!) is available (for free) in the Showcase Webinar Archive!
