IS CLIMBING DANGEROUS? | Partner Check

You will often have asked yourself a question about this sport... but how dangerous is it?! The answer might surprise you. Climbing isn't as risky in itself as it potentially is.
Obviously, we are talking about climbing walls hundreds of meters high under our own power but, if we have carried out all the preparations and checks correctly, we can eliminate the potential danger.
One of the fundamental steps is the partner check. This step is fundamental because it still happens when we are completely grounded and safe. It is not to be taken lightly because obviously mistakes can be varied and could lead to harm or finding oneself in very uncomfortable situations.
Checking each other allows us to avoid errors of distraction or poor execution of the main steps, knot, harness, correct positioning and use of the gri gri, etc.
Climbing is certainly an "extreme" sport but certainly, with today's equipment and the maintenance of both outdoor and indoor routes, it has become a sport that anyone can practice safely.
We hope that this video can help you review and remember what you need to do before lifting your feet off the ground so that your climbing is risk-free and above all more peaceful.
