Learn to Lead Session

Are you interested in learning to lead climb? Well this is the session for you!

This session will cover the gear required for lead climbing, lead climbing skills, and lead belaying skills. You will need to be a competent top rope belayer before coming on this trip and attendance at our weekly MUMC Monday Night Climbing trips is preferred.

Once we have taught you the basics, we will then supervise you practicing in groups of three (climber, lead belayer, and top rope belayer). After this course we would suggest you continue to practice for a while before booking into your lead assessment at Urban Climb.

Gear requirements: You will need a lead climb compatible harness, these are not able to be hired at Urban Climb but can be hired from MUMC. All other gear is optional and can be either hired at Urban Climb or we will bring along for you.

Note: This session does not include any assessment for Urban Climb or the MUMC Climbing framework. This is only a skills session and the assessment will need to occur in your own time. 

Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions.

** There is no cost for this trip although you will need to pay gym entry. Urban Climb has $20 entry for MUMC members, $24 if it's your first time.
