When I was six, me and my family visited my brother on his summercamp. They were abseiling off a wooden tower and I wanted to try it, so they let me have a go. I guess that was the first time I did anything to do with ropes and stuff. Then over the years I went to the climbing gym a couple of times, mainly bday parties or school holiday daycare. Always had lots of fun at them. Anyway one day I saw a BD harness at Paddy Pallin on sale for $40, so I bought it and next day went to the climbing gym and got a 1 month membership with my brother and have been climbing ever since! |
