Kind of sounds like how i started... My leanings are more for getting together with some knowledgable types and learning and making it accessible for folks to learn something helpful in a practical setting. I can do and replicate hauls etc from books too but im humble enough to know theres lots of different ways to skin cats in various different situations. This is where experienced climbers can really help on these kind of days... For reference, im talking about club settings, as per the topic. |
