Zyrofillica 1st Gear August 7, 2010 Share August 7, 2010 (edited) i only climb women. lol especially those with big hand holds. on a serious note, i recommend climb asia. Google it. they have their own facilities and conduct beginner courses all the way up to pro level courses. Rock climbing... hmm if u have big tummy, weak arms weak fingers... forget it. I find that for this activity, you need to be agile, have great upper body strength (especially the fingers!!!) i didnt really enjoy it as much as it is a sport where u must have great discipline to put yourself into a rigorous strength/agility building regime in order to be a good climber. but as an activity, its quite fun to see how far you can push yourself. i would describe artificial wall rock climbing as more of a discipline/technique oriented sport. if u not the fit type, prefer more adventurous outdoor settings and less technique oriented activity, check out via ferrate at kota kinabalu. this one is a must go! http://www.mountaintorq.com/ Edited August 7, 2010 by Zyrofillica Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
