The Indoor Climbing Manual by John White
Climbing indoors has undergone a revolution. Indoor walls are no longer seen as simply a means to help climbers develop skills and get a bit fitter for ‘the real thing’. These days many climbers prefer them, opting for the security of bolt-protected, weatherproof climbs. And why not? Excellent climbing facilities have sprung up everywhere, from primary schools and universities to massive, purpose-built centres offering hundreds of climbs and dedicated training facilities. And some climbers are buying the holds from specialised companies and setting up walls at home. The Indoor Climbing Manual is an authoritative and comprehensive guide, steering the reader through the variety of styles, skills and techniques needed to master the climbing wall, and includes: - An introduction to the equipment required - Top rope climbing, lead climbing and bouldering techniques - Advanced techniques and training to improve your climbing - Guidelines on how to climb safely and prevent injury - Tips for the transition from indoor to outdoor climbing - An overview of competitive climbing
packed with pictures of diverse climbers..and with practical advice on holds and equipment * Outdoor *
John White has made over 100 first ascents and has spent the last 20 years passing on his experiences as a mountaineering Instructor.
