Limb walking

[L14M]

depends how windy it is but yea, so it's a balance thing yea.

 

and yea i have someone to teach me, i'm at college, but there is 27 people climbing at once(in the college arboretum) so some of us end up under the radar, and tend not to get noticed, but i reckon with a bit more practice it'll come easier

 

once again cheers for the tips guys

L14M, I just read my post again and it sounded like I was taking the mick. It wasn't meant to sound like that!

 

It's just something I always think about. I used to find it really hard walking along roof joists and stuff because I was always looking at the ground 9 feet below. It was only when I got it in my mind that as long as I could walk on the ground without staggering or falling over, then there was no reason I couldn't also walk along floor joists without falling over. In a tree with things to hold on to and a rope for protection it should be safer than walking floor joists, but the brain doesn't always see it that way when everything is moving around.

it's alright i assumed you wern't taking the mick buddy.

 

thanks for the advice

Liam, if you are going under the radar, then do the opposite and be the first one to ask for more instruction from your tutor, that is their job. You are there for the reason of learning, make them teach you!

 

If you can hook up with any of the locals off here, then that would also be a big step in the right direction... do some real world climbs with real world climbers.

 

Come on guys... someone take the lad out on a limb!

It's a little far for me to come for a recreational climb, but i'm sure some one on the forum will happily take you out for a climb. regards western
