more and more teenagers are interested in a new kind of climbing-indoor rock climbing.Rock
climbing has a long history.It started as outdoor mountain climbing in the wild.Later it
developed and moved indoors.Now indoor rock climbing is a fashionable hobby among young
students.

man-made walls in sports centers.Climbers use their hands and feet to catch the rocks on the
wall and move up slowly step by step.They need necessary safe equipment,including special
climbing shoes,safety belts and strong ropes.These tools can stop climbers from falling and
keep them safe.
Many schools and sports centers have climbing classes now.If you want to take part in it,
you need to keep healthy.You need to warm up before climbing.You should never climb alone
and always follow your coach's orders.
