Any climbers here?

I'm worcestershire. I believe there's an indoor wall in Worcester city centre so I might go there one day and see how it goes. I guess indoors and bouldering is the place to start?

Not a climber, but done it a few times. My local gym has a wall, which is always handy.

Great fun, and some good phys.

Bouldering is great fun and you can just go do it without the need for any kit which is certainly handy. Most you need is a chalk bag, toothbrush, shoes and crash mat for the great outdoors.

Keep your fingers crossed for good weather, off to Dartmoor or Portland to try outside climbing this Sunday!

So to the already climbing peeps, anyone now of some holiday companies for climbing? Want to go to the states or somewhere equally nice.

I know of some people that went to Spain over the summer, said they had a fantastic time.

You looking for big wall climbing or normal climbing?

My uni club goes away about once a month to different places in the UK, can't make the next one though as I'm busy for Guy Fawkes night

Def not big wall, a few pitches at best.
If I'd found this at uni it would be great but that the way of things!

In door 6b done on friday, plus a big fall. Leading up a 5a, quickdraw at my feet, clipping in at 2 foot above my head so too much slack. Should have climbed up so wasn't stretching and was stable, came off and dropped to head height, swung and kicked my belayer in the mouth!
Couldn't untie the rope from my harness, my hands were shaking from the mega adrenalin dump.
