I am a beginner, and have been invited to go rappelling tomorrow. I would rather NOT wear gloves unless they are needed. Do I need to bring my leather gloves?

  1. ive rappelled a lot, and h**l YES you need gloves if you want to keep your hands on your arms


  2. I don't rappel myself, but I would assume rope burns suck. Leather might be a bit much, but I would wear something that could stand up to the rope. Also, try putting this in Climbing and see if you get more hits.
