Noobs Championship 🎳🏆 Bowling ( hypelaspe )
Tried auto belay for the first time yesterday. Ive been climbing with human belayers years ago. I miss that with humans you can relax a little bit on the wall. Just take a seat in the air. not to mention the decent with auto belay is terrifying. Cant just sit back, its like you gotta jump down or something
@@Piigbigwig the feeling of the "free fall" for the first time is like trusting your life with the machine to catch you , a bit nerve-wracking 🫠🫠
I’m more scared of the robot voice and time-slots 😅
@@Will-kt5jk yeah , agreed about the time slots, it's soo restrictive
This is super common. Good instructors let them try it from 2m then from 5m and then go full route.
Good way to start
Never got over the feeling of dropping from auto belay. Have to intentionally trip myself to go down 😅
I guess it takes alot of conditioning to get over it
I climb just so I can auto belay back down!!! It's fun!
Hope u had fun climbing 🤗
Hope u had fun climbing 🤗
☀️ *Promosm*
Now just wait until you have to take a fall in the lead test
That's true , lead falls are the most scariest 😭😭😭
I subscribed
Hey there , thanks dude
That happened to me first time too. You try telling your hands to let to go but your brain says NO WAY🤣
When we are in that situation, I guess our hands have mind of its own 😅🤣😂
My 8 year old son do this like a boss, we started climbing this weekend and he falls from the top like a pro! Me? Nooooooooope, I have tried a few times from low height but I can't get myself to do it from the top 😢
I guess your son really is fearless like a BOSS 😆🤩
I half to admit when first using a auto belay it does feel uncomfortable that the rope isn’t taught when your about to lean back.
Yeah , it works like a seat belt , only at a certain speed would it catch your fall
1 thing im annoyed about auto-belaying is I climb decently fast and the belay has to catch up to me, don't know if anyone else gets this but yeah.
The machine has 2 setting, normal mode and on speed mode. Because beginners tend to not climb soo fast 😅😅😅
I bought this thank you
Enjoy 😉
The best strategy for me when I started climbing and was using auto belays was to just climb routes so close to my limit that by the time I got to the top I was so exhausted and my hands hurt so bad I just wanted nothing to do with the holds anymore and threw myself off the wall. it was hard on my body but it worked lol
I guess when u climb until exhaustion , gonna let go eventually ✌🏼👌🏼
To those who fear we all gotta go sometime
Thats true , nobody lives forever, I think......... 😬😬😬
I tried it I am still afraid 🤣 I just dont trust it
I guess its hard to trust a machine after all yeah 😅😅
Just like me, I tried to climb down.. but slipped... LOL
Oh noooooooooo 🥲🥲
My issue with auto belay is there's no one doing a safety check with you. In a gym with a mix I once was eager to get started and was 20 feet up before I remembered to clip in.
This is the most common incident in the gyms with auto belays, ppl 4gt to clip in them b4 climb 🙄 😳
As a climber you should be doing your own safety checks. If you don't have the ability to remember to clip in you shouldn't be climbing anything.
Took me close to a year to not be afraid of them
I guess the fear effect will reduce over time
I find that taking a small fall from 2/3m up really helps you overcome the fear quickly. But I have been climbing for a long time so I no longer have a fear of auto belays
I can see that she's afraid of that.
Super afraid 😨
@@ksmd9589 actually yesterday a woman also stuck on top of 5.7. I tried to help her, climbed the nearest 5.10 and showed her how to go down. She couldn’t do that. She went down step by step and I told her 2 meters from the ground to try it. She did, quite reluctantly. But she was persistent. Next she climbed 3 meters and went down. Then 5-6 meters. After a half an hour she did the full height! So, the fear was broken, she was very grateful to me. In fact, she’s quite slim and has long hands. I am sure in a few months she will do just great.
I have this fear with human belayers!
Sometimes its better to trust the machine than humans 😅😜🤩
Just did it for the first time the day before, have said my trainer, that if i will jump - he will have to marry me, and he said YES! Will keep you up to date)
This is sooooo cute to hear 🥰😍🤩
while i love autobelay it never beats the times when I belayed my friends in a gym. we were all pricks to each other and would hold each other right off the ground making them float. those were the good old days
Its always fun to belay each other as long there is trust among your friends 😊
much prefer having a human on the other end of the rope!
Last year in my gym a guy died while using these, when he fall the auto belay did not work and died instantly from a 15 meter fall
Sorry to hear about this accident, I guess that using these kind of machines is not 100% safe
Strangely enough, I think some auto belays can be smoother than a human belaying
Thats a good one 👍 👌 🤭😆
Haha awesome!
So weird seeing a gym that has dedicated time slots for being there. I’m so used to the day pass/membership system where you come in and spend the day hanging out and problem solving with other climbers.
I think its because of covid , the government only allow for slot timings
I was expecting it to fail, damn my heart dropped a little when she went for it! Thank goodness it went all good 😊
Climbing gets better when you learn to lead climb :)
Thats true bro 👍🏼👌🏼 , lead climbing is fun and challenging 💪🏼🤩🔥
If that was his first time on it then the instructor should have had him go up 1 and a half metres and jump of then do it again and a bit higher. Not just let him go to the top he should have picked up on the kids enjoy.
Thats a good idea 💡 👌 👍
Not just a “good idea” but really the only responsible way to go that. I’m disturbed when I see people in the gym not taking it all seriously . It can be really terrifying and traumatic.
@@ksushkan thats really true , complacency is a silent killer 😶😶😶
Yeah, this happened near my city: one autobelay failed to work and a guy went straight into the hospital with lots of fractures, it was life threatening. I trust more the rope with a friend below.
Sad to hear about this 😢, im sure the manufacturers will update and upgrade with more safety in mind 🙏🙏
Yayyyyy made it!
Love your commentary in the end hahaha. That's the motivation one needs
I'm so glad I found this video because I've looked around so much to find articles on how to come down on auto belay... After watching this and reading the comments, I guess it's more about dealing with the fear than anything else. Glad I'm not the only one 🙈🙈
Humans have this natural fear of heights and also of trusting a machine with your own life. I guess after some risk assessment, we have logical thinking to overcome it 😉 👍
Actually, this is really wrong. You shouldn't pressure someone to do something they're afraid of. If they want to down climb, let them. Afterwards, they can train themselves to trust auto belays by increasingly jumping off from small to higher heights.
That's true bro 👍🏼👍🏼 , well said
Your not supposed to down climb on auto belays. If you read the manufacturer’s instructions you would know this. As for pressuring someone it’s not the right thing to do. You should give them encouragement but before they climb have a chat tell them the aims of the climb in this case it’s fun so you will try push them as we want them to be a bit scared as if you aren’t scared a little bit you won’t overcome your fear but we don’t want you crying with snot and tears as that will discourage you from climbing again.
Holy, the guy yelling at her is making it 10 times worse for her.
You mean its not in any form of encouragement?? 😅🤣😂
Exactly. Terrible practice.
@@jeffreychongsathien Where did you learn that it is terrible practise?
I faced the same situation but was on my own so i downclimbed every climb i did that session
Yeah , most ppl will down climb too. I guess its a natural reaction 😅😬
I've gone to the rock climbing place twice, and each time I've downclimbed. Some folks there even found it funny 😅😅
@@Shayy675 I guess down climbing is sometimes a way to get over it 🤷
I definitely get this, and it's just one of the reasons I hate auto belay rigs
I wonder what are the other reasons bro ?? 🤣😂😅
@@ksmd9589 the primary one is that you can't tell ask an auto belay machine for slack
@@slambat2905 thats true bro , the maintenance team will check everyday for its functionality btw.
@@slambat2905 you don’t need to ask for slack as it is always slack that’s the big reasons for people liking them as it’s always got the per erect amount of slack.
i'm an outdoor climber, anchoring of trees and rock features are easier to trust than auto belays. After hearing about the handful that have failed I try not to use them. It doesn't mean I don't but ya know when in rome
Yeah , I guess once a while is fine , not often is good ✌🏼👍🏼
@@ksmd9589 nah they are safe. Climbing is inherently s dangerous sport snd I would say auto belays are one of the safest
I still don’t trust it. I’d much rather take a lead fall on gear than lean back into an auto belay
Is it because its a non human element ? Can't really trust a machine eh 🤔
Is this in NUS campus?
Oh its in Kallang wave mall Climb Central ✌🏼👍🏼
Heck... I've been climbing for a few years and I climb multiple times a week and I'm still nervous with auto belays haha... It doesn't help that an auto belay actually failed in Australia recently and someone died.
Yes , around world there are a few deaths regarding the failure of these autobelays. Not sure what are the manufacturers are doing about it 🤔
Wow that eases my nerves 😭
@Bobo Jenkins you really shouldn’t they can damage them. If you want to down climb then start going climbing with a mate on TR
That’s the thing AB are safe but you only hear about the bad you never hear about the millions of times it didn’t fail
I was belaying someone right next to one of these the first time I saw someone using it. The dude didn’t clip in right and fell from the top (probably 50 feet) and landed like 4 feet away from me in severe pain. It took me a week or two to start trusting them.
Thats the issue with these kind of equipment/machines , we must always never forget to use them properly 👍🏼🙏
@@ksmd9589 no issue with the machine just a issue with the person using it and the centre for allowing them to be used unsupervised
funny, but can't say my first time was much better. I definitely considered downclimbing too haha
I tried down climbing too 😅🤣😂, then the next round , I was even more scared 😨 😅
I do love that initial 0.2 seconds of doubt when you first let go.
Yeah bro , that free fall feeling 😜🤪🤣
Hahaha😂I remember my first time, didn't trust it either, took me a minute to let go properly. Still prefer the old fashioned way tho
I guess us humans will always prefer another human for trust instead of a machine 🤗
lol...yesterday 1 did my 1st climb.....it scared the hell out of me when at the top and ask me to release it .....TRUST it ....lol
Its like a free fall moment 😬😬😬
@@ksmd9589 yes it does....and they say not to hold on to the rope. lol. But after a few rounds of free falling and tumbling at the bottom. It gets better :)
That’s a Talking Pig Ball
YESSSS 😂🤣😬✌🏼
