About this listen

Are you interested in rock climbing, but don’t know where to get started? Or do you want to just learn more about the sport? It can be overwhelming trying to get your head wrapped around the different equipment, types of climbing, and techniques used. But the thing about the sport is you’ll improve dramatically once you've familiarized yourself with these basic concepts.

I’ve been climbing for over a year and I currently climb V4 and 5.11.

From a written perspective, it was organized well and easy to understand.

For me, however, the information presented was very basic and oriented toward someone who is considering trying climbing but has little to no experience. Someone at V0-V1 and 5.8-5.9 level of climbing may get more out of it.

Because the information was so basic, it would be easy for anyone to find the same information on climbing vlogs like sendedition.com or climb.com without paying for it. Which is probably my main driver for rating it overall at 3 stars instead of something higher.

Very Basic
