4 - Gearing Up



In a gym the equipment you need are a belay device, harness and rock shoes. The first step in putting on your gear are your rock shoes. Some prefer to wear rock shoes without socks. Alternatively, basic running shoes can also be used.

You will then put the harness on by putting your leg through the loop and shifting it so your waist loop is belt level. Properly tie the strap through the buckle two times, the strap should extended a little less than three inches from the buckle.

The belay device should be clipped on the side of your harness on a loop.
