Followers Flow: 4/19 (BIPOC Program) and 5/10 (Open Enrollment)

This clinic is for climbers who want to be supportive belayers and competent followers on trad climbs in the Gunks. We’ll talk about strategies for removing gear, re-racking, and giving a good catch. Learn to evaluate risk and ask informed questions about the terrain and style of climbing you are participating in. Just because you’re not leading the climb doesn’t mean you’re not a huge part of the team!

Prerequisites

• Must know how to belay on top rope

• Must have some prior knowledge about traditional climbing

• Must been climbing for at least 1 year
