Thief uses rock-climbing gear to raid iPhone 4 warehouse
climbing equitment ofr a low price?
dose anyone know where i can get climbing equipment for a low price my bro and i Love rock climbing my dad just says we have to get the stuff by ourselves
Look for sales at REI, Campmor, Sierra Trading Post.
NEVER buy used climbing equipment (especially ropes, slings, and carbiners)...you don't know the history of a piece of equipment that you are staking your life on.
Like I said in your other question - check out your local Boy Scout council...they may have a climbing program available.
And use the spell checker!

Rock Climbing Equipment
What kind of equipment is necessary for rock climbing?
I am interested and would like to get some info on how and where to go. Thanks.
It always good to start off in a gym. This way you can rent the essential gear before you make any major purchases and you can get in shape for climbing and learn technique. The first thing I`d buy is a pair of climbing shoes, then i`d go with a harness, carabiner, and a belay device.

How to Do Indoor Rock Climbing : How to Warm Up for Indoor Rock Climbing
An Introdcution To Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is one sport that many people fall for. Lots of individuals are interested in this activity that continues to enjoy popularity. People of all ages are curious of what they can get from this rock climbing adventure.
There are various aspects in rock climbing that might attract different individuals.
The athletic types might very well be challenged by the exhilarating activities involved. They might enjoy the obstacles, the twists and turns. There will also be lots of walking, thus, the body will definitely get a work out.
This can also encourage people who love nature. This is one way to go outdoors and appreciate the many wonders of nature as you travel your way up the rocky slopes.
Those who are seeking a change of scenery or who simply want to be stimulated, rock climbing will be helpful. It can awaken your mind and spirit. The heights can give you that effect.
The Basics of Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is one exhilarating sport that can require a lot from your body and skills. As such, the first thing to consider is to get the proper training to prepare you to what lies ahead.
Today, there are man-made rock climbing walls that you can use to train in the metropolitan areas. It is also a perfect alternative when the weather is bad.
These indoor rock climbing walls can help you learn the various climbing techniques. The safety is also ensured by the rock climbing experts who will keep you in their watch and supervision.
Each wall is constructed and designed to resemble the natural setting of a rock environment. There are also different levels of difficulty so you can improve your skills step by step.
Some people even get addicted to indoor rock climbing as it is very convenient and fun. Just make sure that this alternative has its own purpose, but nothing can compare to the real outdoors. There are many more adventures to enjoy in the outdoors.
Some Rock Climbing Tips
Here are some tips that you can keep in mind so you can learn how to make the most of your opportunity to explore the outdoors.
1. Find the right location when you do outdoor rock climbing. Not all rocks and slopes can provide the optimum setting for the rock climber.
Make sure that the rock can be traversed, either vertically or horizontally. This is why it is best to have an experienced guide wherever you go so that your efforts won't be futile.
2. It is equally important to find rocks that are stable and solid. These are the ideal rocks for your climbing endeavors.
3. Choose the locations that have favorable weather conditions. It is also good to stick to a location where trails already exist.
4. Most people think that rock climbing is very dangerous because of the danger of falling. However, most of the injuries that will be encountered are due to straining of the body parts.
As such, you must do the right warm up and stretching exercises to prevent the injuries on your tendons and muscles.
5. It is also very important to undergo proper training before taking on a serious climbing activity. Train your balance skills as this is useful when you go around the various surfaces.
Some people work on growing large muscles. However, it is your overall strength that will matter most. Your limbs must be able to sustain strains and your fingers must have enough strength.
6. Some people will enjoy going to areas that aren't crowded to enjoy more privacy.
However, going in large groups or being close to other people will be more of an advantage during emergency situations. It is easier to get timely help when there are many companions.
7. Rock climbing equipment is also a must to ensure the safety. There are specific rock climbing shoes that will give you the right grip especially on slippery surfaces.
Helmets are important to protect your head from falling debris when you climb. It is also a good way to avoid unnecessary bumps and bruises to your head.
Conclusion
Rock climbing is one cool activity that you can learn and indulge in. Just take the helpful tips above and you can ensure your safety and fun.

Rock Climbing Equipment
How do I go about becoming more serious about rock climbing?
I have rock climbed once and really loved it. The first wall that I climbed was a 5.10 and I scaled it with no problems.
I have since been wall climbing many times but I want to take it outdoors. I live close to the Alberta Rockies so location is no issue.
1) How do I go about starting outdoors. Do I have to learn how to lead?
2) What equipment do I need to invest in.
3) Can you think of any resources that might be able to match me up with someone who is looking for a climbing partner.
4) Do you know of anywhere that might be good for a beginner in the Alberta Rockies?
5) Anytips that I should know?
Much Appreciated
First off check out mountainproject.com it will give you tons off great info on routes and other stuff. If your looking to go outdoors and lead bolted routes this is what your going to need:
1 dynamic 60 meter rope
probley at least 9 or 10 quick draws (the carabiners attached by a sling)
belay device
2 slings or webbing for anchoring
more carabiners
chalk and shoes
a partner
a Guide book to your local climbing area
a instructional climbing book (Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills)(this taught me everything i know its the climbers bible)
a helmet if you plan on doing any crazy and dangerous routes
When i started outside i tried to stick to easy safe routes althogh a was a relitivly good climber. Know all the basics and how to do everything before you get up on the wall.
my tips are to not do anything stupid. Know what your doing before you do it. know your limits. have fun.

Should I join an indoor Rock Climbing gym ? Is it fun ?
Will have to spend some money, about $30 for the beginner course and spend money on equipment etc. Hope I done give up halfway. The gym is in a shopping mall near my house. I'll be going alone. I just want to get out of the house and get a new hobby. Is it a good sport for loners like me ?
Nothing wrong with it at all. I enjoy it both individually and going with a group. Granted, I'm 37 weeks pregnant at the moment so no climbing walls but it's good stress relief. If you're really not sure you want to invest, see if they have a trial membership and if you can rent your equipment. Most gyms have that. Good luck!
