The ropes are durable and just like the ones at the gym. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTFxba6lNeHrZaHoY_LXe6ZzmMfaipnwu Caution: I bought the 50 feet ropes and they are long and heavy so make sure you have the space (I do have the space). If I was to do it again I would probably get a shorter version as 50 feet (25 feet each side) is a little long.
Myiphone5 Experience or not, you should ALWAYS tie a knot - good practice keeps people alive. If you were taught by a qualified teacher, they would have insisted you tie a knot - so why not do that after your training?
Incorrect. "Top rope climbing (or Top roping) is a style in climbing in which a rope, used for the climber's safety, runs from a belayer at the foot of a route through one or more carabiners connected to an anchor system at the top of the route and back down to the climber" (source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_rope_climbing )
Top roping simply means that the rope is above the climber and the phrase has been used for decades regardless of where the belayer is standing. However, when the SP(S)A was formed there had to be a syllabus, and distinctions crept in that weren't necessary before. That's when the phrase "bottom roping" emerged.' SPA is a nation qual in the uk for outdoor single pitch crags. Just read up on it, looks like just a U.K. thing. '
How do you guys distinguish between a climb where the belayer is at the top of the route vs at the base of the crag? Coming from an Instructor point of view it is useful to have clear info (top/bottom roping)

Its also good practice to orient the carabiner so that the screw gate mechanism screws down (screw DOWN so you DONT screw up)
He didn't tie a knot at the end of the rope...

Hard to concentrate.. Tiffany is too much a distraction!
I hope she doesn’t tie her knot like that for lead

@@zatharigo7815 cause her stopper knot is too far from the fig 8...
First :o
This is a bottom rope technique, top rope involves the belayer being above the climber!
