IM interested in maybe starting climbing Ive had a taster session but Im not sure it was so hard any encouraging thoughts?

its expensive, but very very very good fun and well worth the £100 is you will spend on kit! best bet is go to your local indoor climbing centre and try finding someone to climb with (or take a mate!) and hire the gear first until u know 100% that its summit you wanna pursue - then you can buy your harness, climbing shoes, nuts, hex is slings, tapes, cams.etc etc etc!! :)

As Dave J says your local indoor climbing centre will give you a good idea if you like it or not. If you do you want to look round for your local climbing club, details probably in the indoor centre. You get to meet people, do not have to spend a fortune on gear as you share the club stuff and best of all you go to the countryside every weekend!

start off at a rock gym, if u ike it then buy the equipment and do it for real

Its a great great way to stay or get into shape. l takes some work but is def worth it. Most climbing gyms have climbs for everyone & every ability so start with the easy ones & work ur way into the sport. If u want to go on trips & climb outside or climb ice then it can get really expensive but a good starter kit for the gym would be shoes & a chalk bag. A good set proly run u 100 bucks then u could get a harness if u really like the sport nd dont want to rent the gyms stuff anymore. Just stick with it the reward is so amazing u cant explain how good it feels to top out on a climb & the only thing that got u to the top is ur own will & strength its great

Well, the fun thing about it is that it is hard, challenging, and you can challenge your self. It would not be fun if it was not hard. :p
