when i competed in the ACT schools climbing comp last year I saw some shocking belaying, and saw someone hit the grouund (this is top rope stuf) form a way up. I think the problem was It was one the guys who organised and had a big ego so no-one wanted the ensuing argument from " uh dude, your belaying sucks"
In fact the whole thing was annoying, (mainly a lot of dudes with huge egos shitting everyone off_) except chriss webb gave out the prizes, but we didn't get to see him climb |
