Sport climbing

Disciplina dell'arrampicata sportiva

Sport climbing is a discipline that involves scaling natural or artificial walls. It can take place outdoors or on indoor climbing walls. The climbs must meet rigorous safety requirements in order to minimize the risk of accidents during both the ascent and descent. Sport climbing is a very demanding sport, both physically and mentally. As well as technical skills, it requires strength, agility, a sense of balance, concentration and a tactical approach. In recent years, sport climbing has enjoyed considerable popularity as its various specialisms can be practised by people of all ages.
