Which term describes the man who remains on the ground in a rock climbing pair?
Belayer
What are the different types of rock climbing?
There is leading (when you clip in to quick draws as you climb higher), top roping (when the wall runs to the top of the wall from your belayer and back down to you), bouldering (shorter wall and no rope), free soloing (no rope at all climbing 30ft +), Deep water soloing (climbing with no rope over water), and multi-pitch (climbing more than your length of rope by having the belayer climb up and clip in higher on the wall and alternating belayers)
Indoor Rock Climbing Basics?
More DIY videos at 5min.comIndoor climbing affords opportunities not found outdoors. The weather is constant, no wind can kick up and blow the climber off the rock, safety harnesses and pulley systems help return fallen climbers to the floor without pain.The basics of indoor rock climbing are simple. For gear, a harness, capris pants are cooler than long pants and afford knee protection, carabiners, a belayer (usually a person), helmet, chalk bag and rock climbing shoes. For the beginner who is not sure whether rock climbing is a sport to be continued, gear can be rented at most gyms.The gym staff will help the beginner attach and fit the harness properly and show him or her to properly attach the carabiner to the rope. A belayer acts as an anchor. If the climber falls, the belayer will lower the person safely to the floor.The "rock" or "cliff" is typically 20 to 60 feet tall and has hand and foot holds attached to its surface. It sounds like the climb has been made easy, but do not be fooled. Strength, skill and agility are still needed to climb.Indoor climbing is a fun, healthy way to fitness without the danger inherent in climbing outdoors. Bring friends and family and see who can climb to the top first. For children and teens, climbing builds character, confidence and strength. They are more apt to try new things and to achieve goals in life.
