What will we learn?

On this course you will learn to:

• Apply indoor lead-belay and lead-climbing techniques to outdoor rock
• Build anchors on fixed hardware
• Return at the end of your session without leaving any of your equipment behind (often called “cleaning” the route)
• Abseiling on a doubled rope
• Inspect fixed sport climbing hardware and anchors before you use them
• Recognise the most common sport climbing mistakes and easy methods to mitigate them
• Make intelligent decisions in the outdoors.
  BONUS – as part of this course you will learn about the humble prusik loop – a very simple, extremely useful piece of climbing equipment that not many sport climbers carry or even own. You will learn just how useful it can be in all sorts of situations, and as a special thank-you for signing up to this course – we’ll give you one to keep!
