SUMMARY:Learn to Lead @ St Peter's
DESCRIPTION:Hey Everyone!\n\nRaine\, Cornellius and I (Amelia V) will be ru
 nning a Learn to Lead at Sydney Indoor Climbing Gym at St Peter's this Fri
 day 28th of March at 6:30pm.\n\nYou will need to be comfortable top rope c
 limbing as minimum experience. Lead climbing experience is not necessary. 
 This means being able to both climb and belay comfortably and competently 
 (you don't need to climb hard grades\, just be comfortable climbing/belayi
 ng!). However\, if you've lead climbed before and just want some more prac
 tice and pointers\, or to get your St Peter's lead pass\, we'd love to hel
 p you out!\n\n\n\nWhat is Lead Climbing?\nSome definitions for those who a
 re unsure:\n\nTop roping is how you normally climb in indoor gyms. The rop
 es are already set up\, and all you need to do is climb whilst your belaye
 r takes in the slack as you go. If you fall\, you hang in the same spot.\n
 \nLead climbing is a bit more complicated. When you go climbing outdoors\,
  the ropes aren't already set up. So\, the climber will have to put up qui
 ckdraws along the route to clip the rope into as they go. If you fall and 
 you're above the bolt with the quickdraw\, you can fall a few metres. In i
 ndoor gyms like St Peter's\, the quickdraws are already in place. For outd
 oor climbing you'll need to carry them with you and place them yourself.\n
 \n\n\nWe will be teaching how to lead belay with two devices: GriGri and A
 TC. You'll be placed in a group of three and doing "mock leading" where on
 e person will top rope belay you\, and the other will be lead belaying you
 . St Peter's does not allow leading with ATC so only mock leading will be 
 allowed with this device\, which is still good practice for outdoor trips.
  If you're competent with a GriGri\, you can do your lead test and move fr
 om mock lead to lead climbing and belaying. You are not allowed to lead cl
 imb without passing a test from the gym staff.\n\nWe can also teach how to
  clean anchors if we have time.\n\n[caption id="attachment_18275" align="a

 nstead of a second quickdraw.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCost\nNote that all attendees w
