Have you conquered the top ropes at Central Rock to a point where 5.9 is starting to feel easy and are ready for a new challenge? Learn how to lead climb in our Lead Climbing Class!
Lead climbing is a more advanced style of climbing (similar to what you’d experience outdoors) that involves pulling your rope up behind you (rather than handing from above) and clipping your rope into fixed gear on the wall. The class will consist of climbing 5-6 routes in the 5.7-5.9 range, practicing clipping and lead belaying.
General Information:
- Must be top rope belay certified with Central Rock Gym
- You must climb 5.9 or higher consistently before taking the class
- Must be 13 years of age, or older
- Must have a lead capable harness
- Registration in advance required
- Includes one-month free lead rope usage
Price:
- $80 – Members (FREE for members after six months of fully paid membership dues)
- $100 – Non-members
- If you cannot make a class during the normally scheduled times, we can run private classes as long as we have at least 3 people who want to take the class, but there is no “free” option for 6-month+ members.
