Sport Climbing: 2020-12-19 - 2021-01-02

Whether you are rather new to the world of rock climbing, or you want to tighten your grip on this amazing activity, our sport climbing camp is the place for you to be. The main focus on our sport climbing camps is on high quality climbing. As such, it is aimed primarily at climbers with some experience, we are not pushing fit and motivated beginners away though. Anyone with the warrior mindset and the will to push their limits qualifies very well.

 

What is sport climbing, actually, you may wonder. Well, it’s a form of rock climbing in which the climber’s main goal is to climb a route at the top of their physical, technical, and psychological abilities. Yes, it is as complex as that. In order to be able to focus on the maximum performance, the climber ascends a route that is protected with permanently fixed bolts and anchors - no gear placement (that is trad climbing), just clipping quickdraws.

 

For us, the people at Rockbusters, sport climbing means much more than that. When on a climbing trip, we want to eat, sleep and breathe climbing. Join us for a week or two at one of Europe’s best climbing destinations to see how easy it is to become a climbing junkie. Immerse yourself in crimps, sidepulls, undercuts, tufas, gastons, cracks and dihedrals with us… These are not bad words. With our top coaching and crags selection you’ll find out pretty soon what are these and how to use them. Our approach is guaranteed to boost your technique, mental skills, improve your strengths and fight your weaknesses.

 

  • maximum quality and quantity of climbing
  • individual approach to your needs and level
  • one-on-one coaching
  • video analysis

 

We’ll teach you all you need to know about the equipment. How to choose the best set and correct number of quickdraws for a particular route, what is the best belay device for you, what types of shoes and what sizes go best for different types of climbs, what is the best harness for sport climbing, how long a rope should you get and what diameter, what is a sling for, how to make your personal anchor, what type of carabiners do you really need for sport climbs? All these and more questions will be answered for you naturally in the course of this breakthrough trip.

 

We will go through all safety and technical details so everyone is able to do as much climbing as possible and enjoy climbing with each other. We will push you to achieve more during your stay, arming you with all the necessary techniques and safety measures before you try anything new.

 

We will pay big attention to, and refresh all safety procedures and skills one necessarily needs to handle 100% to stay reasonably safe and enjoy pushing the physical and mental limits when sport climbing.

 

We need just a week’s time to turn you into a confident leader of any sport climbing routes and make you a better climber overall, no matter your current grade or level. We will show you all the sport climbing tricks you may use to stay safe and to be happily trying routes beyond your comfort zone.

 

Our top coaches will be with you every step of the way helping you to master the following:

 

  • What equipment you need and how to choose it so you have the best climbing experience while staying safe
  • Technical climbing skills like how to belay, set up top-rope and lead climb (depending on your level)
  • Climbing calls and communication so that you can get your message across to climbing buddies
  • Movement skills to help you climb more efficiently
  • Basic understanding of outdoor risks so you can make it home safely every day
  • Cleaning the anchors so you can retrieve all your gear
  • Leading sport climbs technique
  • Work on balance so that you climb in a more efficient way
  • Time on slab and vertical ground to improve footwork for better climbing
  • Overhang work to build strength and confidence so you can take on tougher climbing challenges
  • Red point and on-sight attempts so you can tackle new climbs more easily
  • Personalized coaching to break through mental barriers

 

This course is a great way into climbing culture. It’s intense for sure, but this means you’ll develop your skills quickly and progress way faster than you thought possible. Join the Rockbusters beginner climbing courseNovice and you’ll quickly reach new heights and be ready to take on epic routes you could only dream of.
