Develop Lead

What you’ll learn: Our instructors will teach you proper lead belay technique, then go through the details that make a lead climber: smooth, efficient clipping, clean rope management, and how to fall safely and with confidence. Each skill builds on the one before, so you’ll be ready to lead and to catch your partner when they do.

What it leads to: When you complete the class, you’ll have the knowledge and skills you need to earn your Legit tag.

Prerequisites: Discover Sport Climbing (or equivalent proficiency testing) and the ability to climb 5.10 (orange tags) consistently without falling or resting on the rope.

Cost: $100 for members, $135 for non-members
