So there i was on holiday, climbing around a tree, looking around and thought it would be a nice tree to do some practice competition climbing in, so i decided to set up some targets in the tree. I didnt have much of a clue about comp climbing, apart from what i've seen, and that is you go around to specified targets, strop in, shout clear, and hit the target/bell. then move onto the next.
So i came down, looked around for something i could use as targets, found some plastic flower pots. Thought great, that will do. put some string on 5 of them. Went straight back up the tree. found 5 spots for them.
Got to the top, started the stopwatch, and away i go. First run was just under 10mins . Which i was well happy about, thought it was gunna be more like 15-20mins.
Think i might invest in some proper bells, etc for that tree next time im out there. Anyone know a good place for some cheap bells?
Anyway, here are a few pics. and before anyone mentions, there wasn't a good photo of me at target 3, that's why it skips from 2 to 4. Enjoy.
