Climbing & bouldering

Climbing & bouldering

Climbing up the wall under your own steam - this is the focus of both climbing and bouldering. The difference is that no safety rope is usually used when bouldering. Instead, you climb to lower heights. In any case, it's all about having the right equipment. This can vary depending on the requirements, from indoor and outdoor climbing to ice climbing. The right equipment for every climbing adventure can be found in Transa's large range.

What equipment do you need for climbing & bouldering?

When climbing, fuses are usually used. The following accessories are therefore used:

• Climbing ropes, climbing slings, straps and climbing harnesses: The strength and length of the rope should be selected to suit the requirements. Reliable safety slings are also essential for safe climbing. When it comes to climbing harnesses, a good fit is particularly important for comfort and safety.
• Climbing safety devices: There are many practical solutions for this, from carabiners to safety devices.

When bouldering, only crash pads are used as fuses. The following accessories can be used for both climbing & bouldering:

• Climbing shoes are specially designed shoes that provide protection and a secure grip on the rock or climbing wall
• Climbing helmets should provide safe protection for the head without restricting mobility and vision.
• Chalk bags and magnesium help to prevent slippery hands.

In addition, the Transa online shop also offers a wide range of training accessories, ice climbing accessories and via ferrata sets with prepared ropes and clamps.

Tips for climbing & bouldering equipment

Two factors are particularly important when choosing climbing & bouldering accessories: quality and weight. Of course, the equipment has to be light if you want to climb vertically up a wall with it. On the other hand, stability means safety, because ropes and harnesses must be able to support more than just their own weight: In the event of a fall, they must be strong enough to withstand the sudden jolt. When it comes to shoes, models with softer soles offer a good feel for the wall when climbing indoors, while models with firmer soles can withstand frequent rock contact for longer when climbing outdoors on a rough rock face.
