Need a rope

then I can teach my girlfriend to Belay. Then I can go climb whenever and have someone to belay. 

Would be really cool to get her climbing too.

My climbings improving

went to my local wall last night and wanted to really focus on my footwork after reading this article (below). It really made a difference! I found myself having controlled placement with my feet, starting to use the outside and heel, rather than just plonking it down anywhere.

5a to 6a is starting to become a good level of climbing for me, depending upon the holds (my fingers can’t quite manage a full route of crimps or slopers just yet!) I also took my first proper fall so I may even start trying out harder grades just because!

Can’t wait to get back outside on the leading again though.

Looking forward to my adventure in the German alps. Bought my rucksack today so one step closer. Gonna be a week of climbing on a glacier.
