climbing/bouldering - indoors/outdoors

Pix · Post by **Pix** » Thu Apr 09, 2015 8:57 pm

Hello,
I would like to meet new people who are interested in going bouldering (in-and/or outdoors).

Also for rope climbing (top rope). I can belay you as well, if you are not heavier than 60 kg or so

(with GriGri maybe up to 70kg)

If you want to meet up, leave a message!

cheers,

Nadine

Hi!

Yes, the weather is getting better now! In Finland I have only done indoor bouldering and climbing, but looking forward to go outdoors this year! I even have some guides.
Some climbing centres have weight bags to attach to yourself so you can belay a heavier person.

Yes, the good weather came early this year. I started outdoor bouldering already a month ago. Gladly Helsinki has many places with easy access.

I tried those weight bags, but I don't feel very confident in lowering someone who is for example 20kg heavier than I am.

Then it can also be a question of having a different belay device with more friction... or slightly different technique... but it's possible

Helsinki has outdoor bouldering places? You need to tell me more!

Thanks! That's great

Some of those bouldering places are more like climbing! I don't think I'd do them even with a couple of crash pads!
