Gamma on series lead in the rain,
Built anchors while rain passed the built solid anchor for 2 abseils, use a redirect to place myself at the side...
Heather wall absieled in to place lead gear, then client lead with myself at thier side.
Client belayed lower down later changed choice using a rebuilt anchor as the belay.
Then progressed on to live lead with self line, using green gut for as a choice by the client.
Rigged self line, placed 2 pieces when client was nervous, they had good gear at these points but I needed them to relax so they could focus on learning.
Afterwards we reviewed the climb, the client was really excited to continue climbing but was happy with the half day... cant wait to have another session.
Things to note.. Need to place master point of self line further back from edge to ease top outs.
Need to remember to let clients build own anchor more instead of using the pre set system.
Client would like to test some gear in a simulated fall... will add a top rope to back up gear.
Lois is a long term indoor client will be good to work with an unknown..
