What About Belayers?
Do I need to know how to belay?
- No. They can teach you how to tie into your harness and how to belay using ropes here at LAVC.
- Belayers are always available and happy to give climbers a belay when needed.
- The climbing center uses “Auto Belays” which are systems that can safely lower climbers without the need for a “human” belayer.
