He’s spent some time in climbing gym. Any suggestions on way forward tks Geoff 11 November 2009 at 12:00 AM #7723 Reply Noobie…Member Hi Geoff, Best advice I can provide is to do a climbing course and become a regular at a gym. Mix with other climbers and join in on any trips. The only issue here is his age. Do you climb with him? 12 November 2009 at 12:00 AM #7724 Reply GeoffMember I can belay him at the gym but not really a climber, I plan on taking him to Perth climbing gym next week, maybe Northbridge ? thanks Geoff 24 November 2009 at 12:00 AM #7725 Reply NumbatMember Does he want to climb on plywood and plastic, or on rock?
