An aspect of big wall climbing is the lead climber's use of an additional "trail rope" (often a static rope) that they trail behind them as they ascend; it allows the lead and belayer to pass equipment on the climb (i.e. pieces of aid gear). Once the lead climber has reached the top of the pitch, they anchor their dynamic lead rope allowing the belayer to jumar up the lead rope, and focus on hauling up equipment on the trail rope.

Tension traverses and pendulums. Many big wall routes do not have crack systems (or other faults which can be used by climbers) that follow from the ground to the summit. Climbers use pendulums and tension traverses (i.e. a half-pendulum that uses rope tension for aid) to move between such crack
