[quote=Anonymous]Rock climbing is more than upper body strength so that might explain why he has trouble on monkey bars but can climb. Also, top rope requires less strength than leading. The nice thing about climbing is that strength builds naturally as you do harder and longer climbs. As others have mentioned, I wouldn’t commit to anything yet. Sportrock has open climb and drop in classes for kids. I would try those first so your child can get a feel for different climbing disciplines and start learning some technique. If he sticks with it, he’ll find his path. Also, bruises, scrapes, cuts eventually go with the territory. Even more reason to try it out more before making a commitment.[/quote]
