ROUTE SETTING

Describe a Router Setter?  They are the artists of Sport Climbing. 

  • Select the holds to be used.
  • Decides the sequence of movements to challenge the climber on the wall.
  • Determines the difficulty grade (always be nice to the setter). 
  • Creates a particular climbing style (technical, powerful, dynamic, endurance-based, coordination-focused, etc.).
  • A setter personally tests and refines the route, so it is fair, safe, challenging and enjoyable and suited to the climbers on the wall. 

SCA are currently building a new Route Setting Development Framework for beginners to International Setting Teams.
