What equipment do rock climbers use?
|
Rock climbers need equipment that is both lightweight and strong. They wear a helmet to protect against rock falls, sturdy shoes to grip the rock face, and tight clothes that will not catch on the rocks. They drive spikes into the rock and attach ropes to them using clips called karabiners. | Rock-climbing equipment must be chosen with safety in mind. |
