Artificial Climbing Wall: Sports equipment exclusively designed and originally built for climbing. Artificial climbin
5、g walls may be designed and used for lead climbing, top rope climbing, and bouldering.B. Route: Climbable surface approximately five feet （ m） wide that extends vertically from the base of the wall. The number of potential routes on a climbing wall is normally determined by the width of the wall at
6、a height of five feet （ m） from its base.C. Anchor Point: Used to belay climbers during their ascent or to lower them during their descent.D. Top Rope Climbing: A style of climbing where the climber is safeguarded by a rope that passes through a belay anchor at the top of the climb. The climber alwa
7、ys remains below the anchor as they climb.E. Lead Climbing: A style of climbing where the climber is safeguarded by a rope that is passed through an anchor point as the climber progresses up the artificial climbing wall. The climber must clip the rope into each anchor point as they progress up the a
8、rtificial climbing wall so that they are safeguarded from ground falls while ascending to the final anchor points at the top. Typically lead climbing anchor points are placed at spacing of 4 to 5 feet （ to m） to prevent a long fall.F. Top Rope Belay Anchor: Located just above the top of the wall, th
9、is anchor system consists of two fixed ring type anchors mounted to a plate extending 4 to 6 inches （ to mm） out from the face of the climbing surface. Climbing rope is secured by running through both rings. Used almost exclusively to belay climbers using the Top Rope method and lower them back to t
10、he ground.G. Floor Anchor: Floor attachments placed at the base of the artificial climbing wall, used to secure that belayer while either belaying or lowering a climber. The attachments can either be fixed or moveable.H. Belay Station: Usually placed part way up a larger artificial climbing wall or
11、at a ledge used for teaching or rappelling. Used to stop and belay a partner up so that they continue climbing from that point. A belay station usually consists of at least two distinct anchor points, linked by a chain （or webbing） in a V with a ring （or locking carabineer） in its interior part.I. A
12、utomatic Belay: The Automatic Belay is a controlled descent device designed specifically for the climbing wall and climbing gym industry. The Auto Belay provides a hands free belay for the climber, thereby eliminating the need for an additional climber or attendant to serve as belayer. As the climbe
13、r ascends, the slack rope is pulled taut. Once at the top, or whenever the climber lets go of the wall, the device gently lowers them to the ground.
