I'm glad you're OK Sam

My usual climbing partner and I have been ignoring the advice that you should warm up with some practice falling until recently. Along with improvements in our climbing through over coming some fear issues we have both improved in belaying.

I reckon if you want to train up a belayer you need to get them catching you. Initially with plenty of warning, gradually taking bigger falls and giving them less warning until you're giving them no heads up at all. My partner has grown more confident and I've become more attentive with this process.
