EXPERIENCED CLIMBER Belay tests If you are an experienced climber and have belayed before, you must complete a Belay test and registration before using the climbing wall. The tests are 15 minutes, and you will need to demonstrate that you can put on a climbing harness correctly, tie into a rope with an acceptable knot, and then belay someone safely up and down the wall, including arresting a fall. It is preferable if you can bring a partner (who need not have any climbing experience) who will do a short, easy climb while we observe you belaying them.
Once you’ve passed the belay test, you can use the climbing wall unsupervised. Belay refresher session Book a 30-minute refresher session if you have belayed before but would like to refresh your memory before committing to the test. You will need to bring a partner (who does not have any climbing experience) to enable you to practice these skills.
Please note sometimes individuals require more than one refresher, depending on knowledge retention.
