Video: Bad Belaying!

How are your belaying skills? In climbing and mountaineering, proper use of belay devices is the cornerstone of the belay chain. The belayer holds the life of his partner in his hands. This task requires as much attention as it does training. The climber’s confidence in his belayer has a major effect on his performance. It is important to remember that a good climber should also be a good belayer.
