Perhaps there is no need to make the differentiation between where the belayer is located (either at the top - or at the bottom) with the term used -'Bottom roping' or 'top roping'. Either way I hope the video explains this example clearly to folks looking for a reminder on their climbing systems.

seems to be some misinterpretation in your title i am looking for climbing from the bottom and bringing the rope up, not for top roping! This is a vid for installing a top rope anchor

Hey sorry this wasnt what youre looking for. Sounds like you want a video on lead climbing. We should certainly make one soon. Cheers. Happy climbing!

I know that spot! Great little venue for teaching trad and lead climbing, needs a long static rope to get back near the edge or a good 3pc then out of reach clove hitched back to you for bringing up a 2nd for trad. Nice explaination.

This is definitely called "toproping" in North America

Haha yep! Most people here in the UK as well would call this toproping. But... its just a way to help differentiate between where the belayer is positioned. If the belayer is sitting at the top holding the rope for someone climbing up.from below we'd call that toproping. And the setup in this video bottom roping. 👌 it's all semantics! As long as we're having fun climbing that's the main thing right?!

Why not add a little more redundancy with a BHK or two figure of eights at the master point bruv? Also why two lockers for the first two pieces and a non-locker on the last leg? Also, why not retie the tail end back into the last piece for extra safety. Why do British hate cams? Use a cam in the system if you have!

ha yeah - Douglas I cant get enough of those sweet sweet cams! Good points, all possibilities. Just keeping things nice and simple for the video I guess. And a locker might have been a good example on the last leg. The non-locker is actually suspended in space - not touching the rock and the others we're all touching rock. I think that's why we just just the nonlocker on that piece. Make sense?

@@sam_farns_climbing makes sense. Personally, I tie cloves for the last leg on lockers considering you won't be able to monitor the system once down but it being suspended does make me feel better. Thanks bruv! 🤙
