CLIMBING - CREATION (MOSELEY)

  • Climbing the slab requires co-ordination of arms and legs
  • Once at the top we have to abseil down
  • Keeping close to the wall is good technique
  • Need to push with the feet and stretch up to reach with the hands
  • Can I remember how to do a figure of 8 knot
  • Must push with right foot to get over this overhang
  • OK got my hands in the right position but where to put my feet is the question
  • I wish I hadn't looked down
  • If I could just get my left foot over the ridge I'd make it to the top
  • Excellent climbing technique using
  • This abseiling is great fun - perfect technique
  • How do I get out of this...... Oh yeh straighten my legs
  • Bouldering demonstration
  • Using features is important if you want to get to the top.
