| For
those that are new to the sport of climbing, the grading
system can be confusing. As you travel abroad or branch
out into other variations of the sport, the different
grading systems used just add to the confusion.
In the following pages I will try to shed some light
on the different systems used around the world, across
the three main of the variations of the sport: rock
climbing, bouldering and snow & ice climbing. For
each system I'll give brief overview on how it works
and where possible compare the different grades across
the systems.
So, to find out more about the different grading systems
available, follow the links below:
