Intermediate Dry Tooling Course

Train with GB Ice Climbing Team members at The Climbing Hub Bradford

Ready to take your dry tooling to the next level?

Our Intermediate Dry Tooling Course at The Climbing Hub Bradford is designed for climbers who already have some experience with dry tooling and want to improve their movement, efficiency, technique and confidence on steeper and more technical terrain.

Led by GB Ice Climbing Team members, this is a rare opportunity to train with high-level athletes in a dedicated dry tooling environment and develop the skills needed to progress safely and effectively.

What to expect

This 2-hour session focuses on building stronger technique and better movement on dry tooling-specific terrain. Depending on the group, sessions may include:

• movement refinement and body positioning
• efficient hook placement and removal
• footwork and balance on technical features
• route reading and sequencing
• pacing, control and conserving energy
• confidence on steeper ground
• tactics for training and progression

The course is aimed at climbers who already understand the basics and want quality coaching to help move them on.

Who is this course for?

This course is suitable for climbers who:

• have some prior dry tooling experience
• are comfortable using axes and relevant equipment
• want to improve technique rather than try dry tooling for the first time
• are looking for structured coaching in a supportive environment

If you are completely new to dry tooling, an introductory session may be more suitable.
