In this lesson, you will discover the essential personal equipment of the Initiation Canyoneer (CAI), designed to ensure safety, comfort, and efficiency in all canyon conditions. You will learn how to identify each piece of your gear, understand its role, and use it correctly during canyon progression. This lesson also introduces the overall organization of canyoning equipment (personal, leader, collective, and rescue gear) to prepare you to become an active member of the team. Mastering your personal equipment is the first step toward progressing in canyoning with autonomy and responsibility.
