You'll have a quick climbing assessment to identify strengths and weaknesses to start the class and then get some hands-on practice dialing in more technical movement on the wall.

Description

Join us to learn the fundamentals of Sport Lead Climbing and begin a new chapter in your climbing journey! In this class you’ll learn rope management, belaying a lead climber, how to take and catch a lead fall, and about the equipment particular to Lead Climbing. This clinic is designed as an indoor introduction to Lead Climbing and is structured to teach you everything you need to pass the Peak Lead Test. This class is great for any climber who has mastered top-rope belaying and is ready to unlock the rest of the gym by lead climbing!

Cost: $60 for members | $90 for guests

Number of Participants: 4

Additional Notes: Lead climbing is inherently more dangerous than top rope. Participants should be mentally and physically prepared to take on that risk.

Top Rope Belay certification at Peak is required for this class.

This class is for ages 16 and up. If you are between the ages of 13-15 and wish to take this class please email instruction@peakexperiences.com BEFORE signing up. Thank You!

2 Session Class

Session 1: Climbers will learn and practice the skills needed to lead climb and belay in the gym.

Gear and Rentals

Participants will need a harness, climbing shoes and a belay device for the class. It is recommended to take the class using the belay device you plan to mainly use to lead belay. If participants need any of this equipment, we have harnesses, shoes, and ATCs/Gri Gris for rent at the front desk.

Participants are welcome to use their own dynamic climbing rope if they have one. If not, no worries! Peak will provide dynamic climbing ropes for the class.

Lead Testing Info

Participants may take the Lead Test starting the following day after taking the class. We require waiting at least one day after receiving instruction before testing as this allows time to ensure that all the information from the class was retained.

No appointment is necessary for testing. Just let the front desk staff know upon arriving that you would like to take the Lead Test.

Participants may independently take the Lead Climb Only or Lead Belay Only Tests if they choose. Testing lead belayers will need someone to climb for their test. Climbers need to be already certified to lead climb or simultaneously testing.
