Welcome to the World of Bouldering
The New Sporting Craze!
Bouldering is a form of free climbing without ropes or harnesses that
can be performed both outdoors and at indoor climbing
gyms.
Bouldering consists of various problems that are
graded
according to the difficulty of the problem. Each climbing gym has their
own way of grading climbs, be sure to check on your first visit to a new
gym how they display different grades.
Safety
Bouldering does not use ropes or harnesses like rock climbing - instead
there is cushioned flooring for climbers to land on. The lack of ropes
means that climbers have full range of movement and do not need a
partner to assist them, making the sport more accessible.
Always make sure to read or watch the safety information provided by
climbing gyms.
