It can promote health, be fun and exciting, and increase adrenaline ..... Nothing can bring such benefits as rock climbing. Although it is an adventure project with the title of "devil training paradise", as long as it is properly guided and equipped with safe equipment, everyone can safely enjoy this lively and radiant sport! The following is the basic knowledge of climbing beginners that I have compiled for you. Welcome to refer to ~
Basic knowledge of rock climbing beginners Types of rock climbing
Make a climbing plan
Indoor rock climbing can be done in rock climbing clubs, indoor rock walls and even at home in climbing wall.
Benefits of indoor rock climbing:
1. Indoor sports gyms and indoor climbing clubs are more convenient. The indoor fitness space in the urban area can already meet the daily training needs, and there is no need to go far to the suburbs for training.
2. It provides a safe and controllable environment for practice.
3. Training does not need to consider weather factors;
4. If the area where rock climbing is needed is far away or there is no rock climbing field at all, indoor training and learning rock climbing will be a better choice;
5. Indoor training ground can provide equipment rental;
6. Design different climbing routes for climbers with different learning abilities and levels.
Outdoor rock climbing
Outdoor rock climbing, although the weather is not as stable as indoor, can enjoy rock climbing, fitness and more open space in nature. Outdoor rock climbing is divided into several categories.
Bouldering:? This requires the least time and equipment. Basically, bouldering means climbing close to the ground without ropes. You only need to climb as high as you can jump, and there is no risk of serious injury. Beginners can move back and forth parallel to the rock, and horizontal climbing remains parallel to the ground, so the required strength and sports level are not high. Bouldering only needs climbing shoes, a cushion (to cushion jumping or falling) and maybe a little magnesium powder.
Pioneer climbing:? The route was marked in advance with several expansion nails and pendants. When climbing, the quick lifting piece is buckled into the lifting piece to become a protection point, and buckled into the main rope to protect itself. Climbers need to operate while climbing.
This kind of pioneer climbing is the most popular in Europe, especially in France. Safer than traditional rock climbing, it can reduce the influence of psychological fear on rock climbing, so as to go all out to break through the physiological limit and challenge the highest difficulty. In addition, the pioneer climbing method is more convenient than the top rope protection in the route with large angle or large lateral span, which can make the climber easily return to the falling place after falling and practice the difficulties repeatedly. Because of this way, rock climbing has changed from an adventurous and exciting sport to a safe physical training, so pioneer rock climbing is called sports rock climbing.
Traditional rock climbing: Traditional rock climbing is a real adventure. Traditional routes have almost no fixed anchor points. Traditional climbers need to find protection fulcrums in cracks, caves and other places on their own climbing routes when they are pioneers, and then remove these fulcrums from the rock wall after climbing.
Traditional rock climbing is a form of rock climbing that pays equal attention to protection and climbing. It has the philosophical thought of "protecting the natural shape of rock wall while exploring the unknown" and has great adventurous spirit, so it also needs richer rock climbing experience, personal ability and cool head.
Other types of rock climbing, such as rock climbing, ice climbing and rock climbing, are not listed here. Please pay attention to more advanced technical stickers for children's shoes interested in advanced learning.
Rock climbing difficulty level
According to the degree of the most difficult route, the difficulty level of rock climbing is divided. This paper briefly introduces the classification system of route difficulty and danger. Different mountaineering types and countries have different grading systems. In the United States, Yosemite National Park's decimal scoring system is the most commonly used difficulty level classification. The most commonly used difficulty grading system is the free climbing grading system proposed by the Sierra Club in the United States at 1937, which is called Yosemite Decimal System (YDS).
Rock climbing difficulty level
Level a
Walking on a rocky slope, you usually don't need both hands to help balance.
assistant
Climbing on steep slopes, sometimes by hand, but beginners and inflexible people don't need rope protection.
Three levels
Climbing a steep hillside is quite dangerous after falling, so it is often used in your hands. Better get the rope ready.
Totally good.
You need some climbing skills. Most people think that rope is necessary, because if you fall, your life will be in danger. The average climber needs protection, and the protection point is easy to find.
Piati
It is necessary to use ropes and protection to prevent the serious consequences caused by falling, which requires special climbing and protection techniques to varying degrees. Starting from this level, it is called "technical climbing".
The fifth grade is initially divided into 10 grades according to the difficulty, which is called YosemiteDecimalSystem (or YDS. Yosemite also translated Yosemite in the form of "5.0", "5. 1" and "5.2"-0.10). However, with the progress of climbing technology and equipment (climbing shoes, magnesium powder), YDS has become an open level, so there is a subdivision level of "5. 1 1", and each "number level" after 5. 10 is divided into four "letter levels" according to the difficulty. Now the most difficult route in the world is probably 5. 14c or 5. 14d.
Level 5 difficulty subcategory
5. 1-5.4 Easy
Climb the steep part, there is a big protection point.
5.5-5.8 medium
This requires strength and climbing skills.
5.9-5. 10 difficulty
Not suitable for beginners, it needs skills and hiking shoes.
5. 1 1-5. 12 is very difficult.
Not suitable for beginners, it needs skills and hiking shoes.
5. 13-5. 15 is very difficult.
