The crwd hlds its breath. High abve them n the climbing wall, hanging upside dwn by the tips f tw fingers, is the French climber Francis Lmbard. He is cmpeting in the Wrld Cup Climbing Champinships at Birmingham's Natinal Indr Arena.
Until the mid-1960s, climbers practised their skills n cliffs in areas where there was a plentiful supply f gd climbing angles. During the winter they wuld either put up with the cld weather, g walking instead r climb n snw and ice in Sctland.
Hwever, as the sprt develped it was increasingly imprtant fr tp climbers t keep fit. With the cliffs unusable fr much f the year, they used brick-edges r stne buildings t' wrk ut n. This allwed them t keep their fingers strng, and beat ff the bredm f nt being able t climb. It wasn't lng befre many sprts centres started building walls specifically fr the task, using bricks with special edges t cling n t. Many f these early walls fllwed the example set by Dn Rbinsn. Walls culd nly be built in a vertical plane(垂直面), while cliffs utside have features like verhangs and angled slabs(石板) f rck. There was the added prblem that nce the walls were up, their patterns were fixed and climbers wuld eventually tire f their repetitive nature, despite thinking f every cmbinatin f hlds pssible.
In 1985, a Frenchman, Francis Savigny, develped a material which he made int shapes like thse that climbers wuld find n the cliffs. These culd be fixed nt any existing wall and then taken ff when climbers gt bred with a particular cmbinatin.
