Rock Climbing Equipment and Gear
Rock climbing can be a simple as using an exercise wall in a gym or it can be an outdoor adventure where you tackle one of nature's great natural walls. Whether your passion is free climbing or aid climbing, rock climbing is a challenging sport that requires the right gear with the right fit.
People have engaged in climbing as a recreational sport since the early 1700s. The use of a rope in mountain and rock climbing started in the mid-1800s in Europe. Today, the sport of rock climbing is a bit safer and much more scientific due to the introduction of specially engineered climbing equipment, clothing, footwear and other state-of-the art climbing gear. Rock climbing can be dangerous, physically challenging and very exhilarating. Make sure that you have the proper training and gear before you climb your first rock wall.
RockClimbing.com is a very useful resource for locating great climbing locations and climbing clubs.
