Basic precautions for climbing prevention

Falling is inevitable during the climb. The fulcrum breaks, slipping hands and feet, and exhaustion can lead to shedding. It is very important that we have to find the right way to exercise the shedding so that we can learn how to ensure the safety during the fall.

Cognitive and accept. Whether it is intentional practice or other circumstances, we are at risk of injury or even death when we fall off. We must be aware of any possible happenings to face and accept. We must honestly measure all possible outcomes instead of avoiding them. Only by accepting these possibilities—such as death, injury, or injury—can we fully understand what kind of situation we will put ourselves into. This "consciousness" is very important for quickly making correct decisions. Once we have a good idea of ​​all the possibilities, we can make effective judgments and responses to the crash and control the consequences within a certain range.

Exercise notes. Through the practice of falling, we can improve our ability to deal with falls. Although we are ready to deal with injuries, we certainly want to keep this situation to a minimum.

To practice sinking, you should choose a very solid and reliable course of protection, and there is no raised corner or platform in the sinking area. When starting the exercise, choose a place slightly larger than 90 degrees to reduce the possibility of injury. Then, when you have accumulated some experience, you can practice in a more dangerous situation, such as a vertical rock wall or a shedding with a horizontal swing. The protection system must use a sufficient length of rope - at least 15 meters between the climber and the protector - in order to fully absorb the momentum and cushion it. This piece of rope will be stretched and deformed during the practice, so after a few times, the climber is put down and the rope is rested to restore its shape and length.

If you have no idea about shedding, step by step. Try using the top rope first. Get used to the feeling of hanging on the rope, you can also try to hit the rock wall with your feet, shake it up and down, upside down. Then, let the protector give you a little more extra rope and you fall off after climbing a few steps. Next, the practice led the fall. Simply leave your hand beside the hanging piece at the beginning. Then, over the protection point, climb one or two movements and then fall off. Gradually increase the fall distance.

Keep the correct posture while practicing. Including: The arms and legs are slightly curved, and the arms extend out in the area of ​​the chest to respond to potential collisions. Never grab a rope. Remove light from the rock wall and pop it out. Do not jump too much outwards, because when you bounce back, it is possible to shoot on the rock wall. Pay attention to your breathing and the degree of mental relaxation. If you hold your breath and feel nervous, you may need to practice a few more times during this phase and don't rush into the next step.

For the pendulum with lateral swing, pay attention to handle the relationship between the rope and legs. If you are directly above the protection point, the rope should be between your legs. If you are on the left or right side of the protection point, the rope should be protected in that direction outside the body. Well, enjoy the thrill of flying.
