This lecture, and its accompanying practical (1.02) are the base for the beginner School of Rock track. We'll learn and practice tying in and the basic safety knots, the necessary safety gear for top-rope climbing, and how to safely belay your fellow climbers on TR. Come practice your skills, and get psyched to apply them outside!
