Sport climbing involves lead climbing techniques- in which one person usually leads first
as others follow the same path.
Once the climber has finished their climb, they will belay (exerting tension to the
climber’s ropes to slowly guide them down) back to where they began their descent

Ice Climbing Equipment (new)
A Crampon: is a traction device that is attached to footwear to improve mobility on
snow and ice during ice climbing
Ice Axe: an axe used by climbers for cutting footholds in ice, having a head with
one pointed and one flattened end, and a spike at the foot.
Ice Screw: a threaded tubular screw used as a running belay or anchor by
climbers on steep ice surface such as steep waterfall ice or alpine ice during ice
climbing or crevasse rescue, to hold the climber in the event of a fall, and at
belays as anchor points.
Rope: there are three primary rope systems used in ice climbing: single rope,
double rope and twin rope.
The single rope system, which is suited for straight climbing routes, is the most
commonly used rock climbing system in the world.
Also often used in climbing is the double rope system which is a more flexible
system than the single rope system.
Lastly, the twin rope system, which uses two twin ropes in a single rope
system, is used for longer multi-pitch routes
