Intro to Trad Climbing

• Internationally certified mountain guides Rob Coppolillo and Marc Chauvin will teach you the fundamentals of trad climbing in this 8-week online course offered by Climbing Magazine. From placing/removing gear and proper belay techniques, to how to make an anchor and manage a stuck rope, Intro to Trad Climbing takes the guesswork out of exploring traditionally protected climbs. If you’re a sport climber who wants to add a new dimension to your climbing, a gym climber who wants to explore all that your local trad area has to offer, or a seasoned climber who just wants to revisit the basics, this course is for you.
• Combined, IFMGA guides Rob Coppolillo and Marc Chauvin have more than 75 years of experience rock climbing, guiding, and teaching climbing all over the world. They are also the authors of the just-released The Mountain Guide Manual (Falcon, 2017). This course will walk you through catastrophe knots, making trad/alpine quickdraws, belaying the leader and the follower, managing risk, and the right way to place gear to best protect your partner and yourself.
