Skills & Techniques for Sport & Traditional Climbing BMC
Britain was the birthplace of modern rock climbing for a reason; there`s
enough rock on our perfectly formed islands to last you a lifetime!
If stepping outside for the first time, watch the BMC`s DVD to help you get
the most from our moorland outcrops, majestic mountain crags and wild sea
cliffs. All climbing styles are covered in detail, including bouldering, sport
climbing and single & multi-pitch traditional climbing, with the iconic crags
of The Roaches, Dinas Cromlech and Gogarth having a starring role. When making
your first forays onto the crags, Rock Climbing Essentials will guide you
through the skills and techniques needed for a lifetime`s climbing, full of
fun and exploration.
