Trad 101 – Gear

Trad 101 – Gear, 6:30pm, Law Building, Wednesday.

Hey everyone. If you’ve thought you’d like enter the world of traditional climbing (or you already have and could add your input or pick up some tips) here’s the perfect training sesh – Gear. Sign up below.

The cams, nuts, hexes, offsets, tricams, ballnuts, bigboys, slings and handjams that hold you on the wall are the most important part of staying safe while t-radical climbing.

I’ll cover

• Why Trad Climb? (The fun of it and the places you can climb)
• Trad Gear
• Hexes, nuts and cams, how to place well and what to avoid

The next sesh the week after will cover how to build trad anchors (ie. 3 or more piece anchors)

I’ll post which room on the facebook event by 6:30pm!

Cheers,
Brendan
