Seinälataus

Seinälataus, also known as wall climbing, is a sport that involves ascending vertical surfaces using specialized equipment. The sport is popular in countries like Japan, where it is known as "kabe-nage," and in the United States, where it is often referred to as "bouldering." The primary equipment used in seinälataus is a harness, a rope, and a set of climbing holds or footholds. The harness is worn around the waist and connected to the rope, which is secured to an anchor point at the top of the wall. The climber uses their hands and feet to grip the holds and footholds, pulling themselves up the wall.

Seinälataus can be divided into two main categories: bouldering and sport climbing. Bouldering involves climbing short, often overhanging routes without the use of ropes or harnesses. The goal is to reach the top of the route without falling. Sport climbing, on the other hand, involves climbing longer routes with the use of ropes and harnesses. The climber is secured to the rope, which allows them to climb higher and attempt more difficult routes.

Seinälataus is a physically demanding sport that requires strength, endurance, and technique. Climbers must be able to grip the holds and footholds with their hands and feet, as well as pull themselves up the wall using their arms and legs. The sport also requires mental toughness, as climbers must be able to push through difficult sections of the route and maintain focus throughout the climb.

Seinälataus is a popular sport for both recreational and competitive climbers. Recreational climbers often climb for the enjoyment of the sport, while competitive climbers participate in climbing competitions and events. The sport has a strong community of climbers who share their knowledge and experience with one another, and who support each other in their climbing pursuits.
