Outdoor project climbing
Want to push your outdoor climbing grade? This course is designed for climbers looking to tackle more challenging routes by developing a strategic approach to projecting. Through a combination of technique refinement, mental preparation, and detailed route analysis, you’ll learn how to break down complex climbs, manage fatigue, and stay focused during attempts. Topics include route reading, developing beta, managing falls, and pacing yourself through multiple tries. By the end of the course, you’ll have the skills and mindset to confidently tackle your hardest projects and progress in your climbing ability. In addition to the indoor we are going to teach techniques to gain easier access to harder routes.
Our internationally-certified and experienced instructors will guide you through the fundamental techniques in a fun and supportive environment. You should have expierence with lead climbing at around 6a or above, and would like to learn how to push your grades further.
Course contents:
- Strategies to Approach a Project: Approaching a climbing project involves setting clear goals, choosing the right project, breaking down the route into manageable sections, and mentally preparing for the challenges ahead.
- Route Reading: Route reading is the skill of analyzing a route before starting, identifying key holds, movement patterns, and possible rest points to devise the most efficient climbing strategy.
- Visualization Techniques: Visualization techniques involve mentally rehearsing each movement and sequence of a climb to enhance focus, confidence, and muscle memory before executing on the wall.
- Memorization Exercises: Memorization exercises help climbers retain specific sequences, holds, and beta, improving their ability to recall important details during a climb and increasing overall efficiency.
- Techniques to gain easy access to harder routes.
Each session includes practical, in-the-field learning, allowing you to apply new skills on actual lead routes under the guidance of experienced instructors.
