Overview

Rock climbing is a sport where someone uses his hands and feet to climb up a rock or an artificial climbing wall. Rock climbing is a very difficult sport because you need to have a lot of strength. Rock climbers must know how to use ropes, carabiners and harnesses for their own safety. In the 1880s rock climbing was recognized as sport in England.

Free climbingis where the climber’s own physical strength and skill are relied on to do the climb.[1] Anchors, ropes and protection are used to back up the climber, but are only there in case of a fall and are not actively used to help the person do the climb. Boulderingis climbing on short, low routes. Because people do not climb very high, they do not need to use safety equipment.

Solo climbingis when a climber climbs alone, without somebody belaying There are several ways to climb solo.The first is roped solo climbing, which is climbing by yourself with a rope backup in case of fall. Free soloing is climbing alone without the use of any rope or protection system whatsoever. Lead climbingis used when the rope is not on top yet. The person must tie the rope to their harness and then climb up the wall. On the way the climber puts the rope through a carabiner every few metres. Here the person at the bottom must also use a knot or a securing device.
