CLIMBING RULESUseful advice and a few tips to make climbing easier and safer:
- Get familiar with the equipment: use only standardized mountain sports equipment (CE sign) & study instructions for use accurately
- Partner check before starting: double-check your knots, harness buckle, belay system, karabiners, snaplinks and the end of the rope
- Let your climbing partner know what's going on: communication prevents misunderstandings, let your belayer know when he has to take your weight on the rope
- Act respectfully: respect other climbers and inform them of mistakes and dangers; always respect areas where climbing is not allowed
- Protect your head
- No rope on rope contact
- Warm up before you start climbing: gymnastics and warm-up climbing protects your joints, muscles and tendons
- Full attention while belaying: the life of your climbing partner is in your hands
- It is strictly forbidden to fix new climbing hooks
