Anatomy of kneepad


 


There are two ways how to climb harder on tufas:

1) Train hard
2) Get kneepads
As a naturally lazy person I opted for second possibility.
Now, where to get one? You could buy some feeble imitation produced commercially, but proper kneedpad is DIY:

a) You will need:
1x neoprene sleeve
1x rubber sheet
3x strap with buckle
1x needle and thread

b) Stitch rubber sheet to neoprene sleeve at the bottom and at the top
c) Route straps between sleeve and sheet and stitch them














d) Done

















Now go and try some climbing
