Belaying is a technique that protects a climber through the use of rope, harnesses, anchors, carabiners and a belay device. The climber’s partner, the belayer, uses this technique to safely catch, hold and lower the climber should they fall.

Belay Clinic Curriculum:

  • Harness use
  • Climbing knots
  • Tying into a harness
  • Setting up the belay device
  • Belaying technique
  • Safety checks
