Climbing Dyno-mite is a learning book that has been written and designed for anyone who wants to begin climbing at an indoor climbing wall. It is thus ideally suited to help most beginners, since over 90% of people starting climbing today, will begin this way. The book is aimed at both kids and adults, and is laid out in a clear and illustrated fashion. The book has been written and structured to run alongside most of the introductory courses that indoor walls offer, and will serve as an text and photo reference book.

The book deals comprehensively with every area of indoor climbing walls. All of the climbing moves are illustrated, from old fashioned laybacks to new wave guppy hooks. Indoor and outdoor bouldering is dealt with in great detail and virtually covers every conceivable move. All climbing photos illustrate highly experienced climbers that are greatly skilled in technique, and demonstrate clearly all aspects of body movement and important key points. The book is laid out in a modular structure, to facilitate the clear differences in climbing - of bouldering, top rope climbing, lead sport climbing indoors, and other aspects of outdoor sport climbing such as multi pitch climbing on the big European canyons. These individual modules enable easier understanding, and allows the reader to firmly concentrate on either climbing technique, or equipment and safety. It also makes referring back to any part, far easier for the novice or learner.

Climbing Dyno-mite begins with a casual give-it-a-go session at a climbing wall, which naturally flows into indoor bouldering (module 1). This then is developed into outdoor bouldering skills from major bouldering areas of Europe such as Fontainebleau and the Peak District (module 2). All techniques of becoming an expert boulderer are covered, with indoor woodies and fierce roof grottos (module 3). Indoor top rope climbing is dealt with separately, and then flows into indoor lead climbing (module 4). Only after all of these parts, is outdoor lead sport climbing introduced. This is illustrated in fine detail in both climbing technique and safety aspects of routes around Europe. The book covers advanced sport routes such as the multi pitch routes in the major French canyons (module 5). We also then take a climber up each grade showing them how to cope with different levels of climbing (module 6). There is also a full appendix on the techniques used in Via Ferrata climbing. This can also be invaluable on a first visit to the Alps and covers an essential area for the new development of many Via Ferrata routes all across Europe. Note that the specific climbing areas of classic and alpine climbing, ice climbing and expedition climbing, are not dealt with in this book.
