There’s a lot of things to learn when you’re first starting to climb. One of the best ways to learn the basics is to climb indoors where there will be plenty of people who can show you the ins and outs of climbing. It’s also safer compared to outdoors as well. It’s pretty hard to show a lot of these basics just through writing so I searched online to find the best free tutorials. I’ve found many but only a few of them are decent. The following mini series is one of the best ones I’ve found. Most of it is climbing in general rather than bouldering but if you’re starting out, you’ll learn some good info whether you route climb or boulder.
- Climbing Gear
- How to Tie a Climber’s Knot
- How to Belay
- Climbing Techniques
- Climbing Holds
- Bouldering (how to land, how to spot, V grading system)
- Lead Climbing (clipping)
