Bouldering

 
 
Hi guys, how's life going for you?
Have you made the zip wire yet or in the making of it?
 
Today I'm going to share some tips and tell you all about Bouldering!
 
 1. So the first thing is, chose a certain colour... Normally the easiest is orange and yellow!
 
2.  when you're going up the wall to keep your bum in and try and keep it as close to the wall as possible.
 
3. Try and keep your leg straight and push up (by straight I mean when you are trying to reach a high hold!)
 
4. When you get to the last hold, hold it with two hands to show that you have reached your final destination!
 
 
I would say the hardest holds to go up the wall with are black white and wood!
 
I go to the Red Goat Bouldering Centre in York it is a really lovely place and I highly recommend it because everyone is so nice around there!

D.I.Y zip wire



Hi guys how are you all?
Today I wanted to teach you how to build a zip wire (yes the one with the rope and stick)
 
Materials list

• Two strong trees that are spaced apart from each other 
• 25m of wire cable 
• Climbing pulley
• A length of rope 
• A set of steps 
• Ratchet straps 
• A strong stick to sit on 
 
Fasten the pulley onto your 25m wire cable (if you don't do this before fastening the wire to the trees you won't be able to get it on!). Now fasten the cable to the starting point of what ever tree your going to set off from (please look at attached pictures for fixing instructions) Make sure the start point is higher then the end point otherwise you won't be able to slide down the wire. Now you have fixed the starting point you have to fix the end point, this is were you will need a ratchet strap (can be bought from local D.I.Y stores). First fix the cable around the middle of the ratchet strap, now loop the ratchet strap around your tree/trees (remember this is lower then your starting point). Now tighten your ratchet strap which will tighten the cable to allow you to slide down it. You need to go back to your pulley that should be hanging on your wire, now attach the piece of rope to the pulley then fix the stick to the right height so your not dragging on the floor when you set off or land. Please look at all my pictures to make sure you have fitted everything correctly before you jump off those steps! 

Enjoy! The indoor campsite xxx

BTW- all my materials apart from the trees and the pulley are all from Sam Turners, Northallerton
