In the first session of this two-part series, we will cover lead climbing background, clipping techniques, climber safety & positioning, as well as starting to learn the basics of lead belaying. Participants will be able to mock lead climb at the end of this session. This ensures you can safely practice lead climbing while simultaneously being belayed on top rope.
Part two of this series focuses more on belaying techniques and how to catch falls safely. Participants will get lots of belay practice, as well as getting cofortable taking falls (climber) and catching falls (belayer) . By the end of the course, participants will take the sharp end and lead climb and lead belay with a backup belay.
*NOTE: This course MUST be taken with Part 1 AND Part 2, during the same week. The $80 class fee covers both courses.
