Labyrinth of sandstone towers in Ostaš, Czech Republic

After quite a long break we are back with another climbing video!

In springtime we made a short stop for climbing in Ostaš - a characteristic table mountain near Police n. Metují in Czech Republic, where we've met with a friend Maciek to do a short session on some classic lines.
This area is mainly known for it's fine bouldering, but it also offers a lot of quality climbing with rope. The area is divided into groups of towers called "Upper Labyrinth" and "Lower Labyrinth". There is also a sector in the back of the mountain which offers long and hard routes.
This is one of the areas where Damian started climbing and - as usual - it was really nice to go back and climb in this beautiful place.

Zawiera magnez?

[@AlesZvolanek]

I wonder if magnesium is allowed in Ostas?

[@pavelveverka6024]

It is not allowed in general. It is not forbidden expressly, but in CHS general rules for sandstone climbing www.horosvaz.cz/res/archive/330/056387.pdf?seek=1592486177 is part "Použití chemických a minerálních látek, které by měly sloužit ke zvýšení tření na skalách (např.
magnesium), není součástí dlouhodobé tradice pískovcového lezení a snižuje sportovní hodnotu výstupu.
Je považováno za nevhodné především v oblastech vnímaných jako klasické, v cestách nižší obtížnosti (do
IXa) a u výstupů vzniklých před rokem 1980" which means that using it is inappropriatea.

No Chalk pls.

[@vaclavkrejci5339]

In Ostaš, as in most sandstone in Czech, its normal to use chalk in harder routes. It´s not so strictly as in Saxony. 99% climbers use chalk in modern routes above VIIIa in Ostaš.

Łapa w dół za magnezję. Jeśli nie potraficie bez- odpuśćcie. Ktoś wymyślił te zasady nie bez powodu.
