Belay
Safety First
Belaying is essential for safety in climbing, ensuring that climbers are anchored and can't fall far.
Before starting the climb, make sure you're properly belayed.
Climbing Partner
When climbing, belaying involves teamwork. One person climbs while the other takes up slack and secures the rope.
I can't climb until you've got me on belay.
Trust and Responsibility
Using 'belay' implies a significant level of trust since one's safety depends on the belayer's attentiveness.
As my belayer, I'm trusting you with my life.
