Command Task-2 — Cantilever over Red — How I’d Brief
No far white within plank length. You must cantilever. Two subordinates, one rope.
Obstacle
Start white slab. Red ground for 9 feet. Finish white is a small stump. Your longest plank is 6 feet. A blue post is within reach — people can hold it, material cannot rest on it.
Colour reminders
- 9-ft red gap.
- Blue post — hands only.
- Finish stump white and small.
Helping material & load
- 6-ft plank
- 4-ft plank
- Rope
- Tolvi
Load: Rifle-shaped dummy (awkward length)
What the GTO is waiting for
Do not freeze. A 5-second look is composure; 20 seconds is panic. Write the brief you would spit out.

A complete brief (for comparison)
Steal the structure — aim, resources, sequence, roles, colour, fallback — not these exact words on the ground.
- Aim: cantilever from our white, catch the stump, then convert to a supported span.
- Resources: I am the counterweight with A; B receives on the stump; rope as guy; dummy last.
- Sequence: set fulcrum on our white, slide 6-ft, B crawls, lash, then dummy, then I cross.
- Roles: A counterweight, B receiver, I on the beam first.
- Fallback: if stump is too small, B sits astride and belts the plank with rope before the dummy moves.
