More about bouldering
Bouldering is not considered one of the most dangerous of sports with a group rating of 2. Risk of injury is reduced by the fact that climbers rarely go above 5 meters in height. For further protection, climbers typically put a bouldering mat on the ground to break falls and use spotters to direct a climber’s body towards to the crash mat. Aside from the possibility of trips and falls, injuries can occur to the fingers, hands and elbows due to the repetitive strain placed on them whilst climbing. As a result adequate insurance is recommended for protection against injuries.
