Essential Gear for Sport Climbing (Build Your Sport Rack)

This is a list of all the gear I find necessary to go single or multi-pitch sport climbing.

Gear:

-harness

-belay device (ATC Guide or Petzl Reverso 4 style) with 2 locking pear-shaped carabiners, the extra for belaying from the top

-prussik for backing up rappels, attach to belay loop using extra carabiner      with belay device, I use 6mm, maybe 1m long loop.

-nylon runner for extending rappels

-10-15 quick draws, some extendible or extra long (not all the same length)

-personal anchoring system (some options are: 2m dynamic rope and 2 pear-shaped locking carabiners; two nylon runners with 2 D-shaped locking carabiners(do not use dyneema!); use quickdraws (not recommended); purchase a pre-built anchoring system) This is necessary for multi-pitch while establishing rappels

-2 double length slings plus 4 D-shaped locking carabiners for building an equalized anchor (x2 for multi-pitch)

-dynamic climbing rope with middle mark

-crag pack and/or rope bag

Head:

-helmet

-headlamp

-warm hat

Body:

-base layer
-synthetic shirt

-synthetic warm layer

-rain jacket

Hands:

-chalk bag

-gloves for in between climbs

-hand warmers for chalk bag during cold days

Legs:

-synthetic, stretchy pants

-base layer

Feet:

-wool socks

-sturdy hiking shoes/boots for approach and belay

-rock climbing shoes (nice to be able to wear socks with shoes for cold days)

Some variations are certainly possible and I do not make any claims of exhaustiveness. Climb safe, y'all!
