http://www.climbinggears.us - Rock climbing is a sport
that involves climbing steep rocky terrain. It is a
very exciting sport that involves a lot of physical
exertion and challenge. However, rock climbing can be
very dangerous, if not done properly. There are
basically two kinds of rock climbing: aid climbing
(use of gears like rope, ladders and bolts) and free
climbing (no gear is used except for safety). Other
kinds of rock climbing are: sport climbing, top-rope
climbing, solo climbing, bouldering, traditional
climbing, mountaineering and indoor climbing. There
are certain techniques generally used for rock
climbing: tying in, leading, abseiling, lowering and
others.
