A no experience necessary technique session aimed at beginner climbers who would like to get to know the centre, or experienced boulderers wanting to learn to supervise under 16’s or use the auto belays. Sessions last an hour and a half and include a safety brief, bouldering safety and techniques, supervising under 18’s and the use of the tower (auto belays)!
One of our enthusiastic instructors will give you a tour, teach you the basics of bouldering and show you how to use the auto belay towers safely. After this session, you should feel comfortable using any of the climbing facilities at Flashpoint Cardiff.
