Bouldering Tips & Etiquette
- Learning how to fall safely is an important first step in learning how to boulder. Landing feet first and with your knees bent will help prevent injury.
- Don’t break your fall with your arms or hands. No straight arms when falling on your side.
- Use a spotter to make sure your landing area stays clear. More advanced spotting techniques can help prevent injury when falling from an awkward or overhung position.
- Never climb underneath other climbers.
- Never climb with your bare feet.
- YES! to down climbing before jumping off the wall.
- Don’t cut in line. Treat others as you’d like to be treated and make new friends!
- Don’t leave gear in the fall zone. Makes sense, right?
- Don’t climb a route that crosses a route with someone already on it.
- Avoid running or screaming
- Help one another out. Prevent others from walking under other climbers to avoid potential injury.
