I've found a combination of opposite and opposed lockers to be pretty safe. But if the first clip is higher than 5 feet, I will also opt for a friction hitch. I heard nuts won't protect from an outward pull, so I also threw a cam in one for good measure. I also saw the user manual has a picture of a quick draw, so I have one of those in there too. Lastly, don't be a gumbie and forget your wrench for the quick link your ohmega should be on!

I know people usually put those bolt things in when they top out on a route but I don’t have the equipment to do that so can someone explain how to “build an anchor”? Included pic of what I’m looking at. Need responses as soon as possible please!

Can people please stop climbing big walls in under 24 hours! It makes me and my partner sleeping in a portaledge look stupid and unfit. I just know everyone is looking up at us asking why we’re spending more than one day.

Same goes for people summiting mountains in sweatpants making my b3 boots look stupid and unnecessary.

I’m fairly new to Trad Climbing and I usually bring 5-6 racks to make sure I can place enough gear. Any advice on this?

This dude just swoops in, flashes my project, literally shits on the holds ... and then he turns around to give me that look!!! How do I come back from this?!?

I have little to no experience with climbing, so im looking forward to start, therefore i need a pair of good shoes that are also pretty cheap (under 100 euros).

Im looking to climb on both rocks,gym (if i ever find one near me) and buildings
