Hello Outdoor adventures!

The months of house bound restrictions has probably got all of us itching to get outdoors again. For new club members, you probably have been waiting to try ANY outdoor adventures more than ever.
For those that have already caught the outdoor bug, you probably starting to think about purchasing your own private gear.

In the next 2 weeks, we will run a 3 part online workshop catering for the very beginner that has no gear, to the gear nerds that just love new, shiny and pretty toys.

Join us online so you can make the best informed decisions from myself and some experienced trip leaders.

What will we cover?

Part 1: Beginner What gear should I buy and how much does it all cost
• What should I buy
• In what order should I buy and what’s the budget range
• Differences between cheap and expensive gear (is it safer)
• Can I buy used/second hard gear
• What’s the discount code, I’m about to check out my shopping cart
• Environmentally aware equipment

Part 2: A deep dive into gear decisions
• Designs and trade off
• Harness
• Belay Devices&Descender
• Ropes

Part 3 shall include a list of questions/answers from participants to be run at a later time.

A zoom meeting link will be sent 24hours before the commencement of the activity to participants who joins the trip.
