How to Belay a Lead Climber



-Until they get to the first bolt, spot them 
-When leader clips to first bolt, belay them
-Maintain a little slack (Not too little, not to much) 
- If the climber is above their last draw, you will pay slack out.  If they are below their last draw, you will pull slack in.
- Stand near the wall so you don't get jerked towards the wall in the event of a fall.
