Study Notes
Equipment and Safety Regulations
- Incidence reports cannot be viewed by team members.
- Members observing and climbing must fill out a climbing waiver.
- Supervisors are responsible for completing equipment inspections.
- Ropes should undergo weekly inspections, but this is false; the correct frequency is not stated.
- Bouldering requires a designated spotter to ensure safety.
Climbing Types and Standards
- Four approved climbing types include lead climbing, top rope, auto-belay, and bouldering.
- Auto-belays have specific psi ratings: Spectrum (85-95 psi), Extreme (55-70 psi).
- The open wall ratio is 1:10, ensuring supervision is maintained.
Member and Team Safety
- A team member is needed when there are ten or more climbers; it is false that one team member suffices.
