We are in the Lake District in the UK for the Arc'teryx Big Mountain Weekend. We caught up with pro climber Charlie Woodbrun to find out what gear he takes trad climbing.

What's On A Pro Climbers Trad Rack? | Climbing Daily Ep.1408 - กีฬา
I took a full leader fall on that yellow 00 wire - wrecked the wire, but it held the fall. Amazing piece of kit. Well done DMM.
You sir, are a madman
You must have taken a shit LoL
How much rope was out, and how far was the fall? I can only imagine a low fall factor. Glad you're still here to reply, you are still here? Right? lol
People would be amazed what falls tiny gear like that will actually hold. It’s awesome
The relaxed format, the beautiful location, and pro climbers gear. This is a winning video formula. Maybe also a storytime over coffee with the pros kind of deal would be cool.
Nice Amber beer showing up there Matt
I’ve been drooling over getting new gear the last few weeks. Now you come out with this video. There goes my money!
Worth noting that Charlie clipped the krab to the wrong thing while demonstrating guide mode. Make sure you go and check out the correct instructional, because the little loop at the front is for aiding lowering and not 'what the rope goes through'. Well done Matt for spotting and quickly changing tack!
This has been explained in another comment, it was an editing mistake. They use the wrong zoomed in shot.
More Charlie!! He was awesome. Great film!!
Offsets are truly amazing for open cracks. I use the DMM ones all the time, too.
Bruder Brot yeah, i have to agree. I’m almost embarrassed to admit I’m a very loyal (read: biased) Blackdiamond user for the last 20 years or so. When they haven’t been perfect, i’ve made them work. But after using a friends DMM offsets, I don’t think I can l live without them! They are so good
love those DMM offsets
Think Matt saved Charley there from a somewhat suspect guide mode demo!
Very dodgey!
Hey that’s an editing mistake on our part there, we shot a tight afterwards and we put the wrong shot over what Charlie was trying to explain, his demonstration was good we can assure you 😁
Looks like the tight shot was meant to go with the bit about using a crab to increase leverage when lowering a fat bastard.. sorry meant heavier second.
@10:45 where is the Direct Belay Video link you're referring to? Thanks for all of the awesome content!

I have fallen on RP's (around size 1-5) a few times and they have never failed me.
I do like Matt but Charley does a great job on explaining gear and why he choose it.
BIRD!!!!!! @5:56 lmao
What size range of cams?
The bird! Ahahaha
blue big
Where is the direct belay video?

Where can i find that hat Charlie is wearing?
Don't get it. It looks hideous.
On his head
Next can you please do a pro sports climbing rack
Please
Ps: keep the good vids coming
Draws, maybe like a few slings and lockers.
@Spencer Hatton what do you wanna know? It is simple: your gym equipment + rope (if you don't have one already) + quickdraws + helmet.
Those are then basics. Rope length needed is different from crag to crag and route to route, for outdoor sports climbing i would recommend at least 60m.
50m is enough for indoor routes (most of the time even 40m), but outdoors there are often routes where 50m is too short. 60m i would say is a baseline, 70m the standard, 80m luxus.
If you need a way longer rope, you would know it ;)
In case the routes don't have a good top (like 2 carabiners, a pig tail etc) where you can just clip your rope in, you may need something extra (mostly just 2 quickdraws to clip yourself to the wall to be safe during you feed the rope through the chains on the top and reattach).
Slings maybe, but not necessary. Maybe to build 1-2 extendable alpine draws, to prevent rope drag on some routes.
This is all maybe and specific to the route. Normally you don't really NEED all those things, most of the time. 10+ quickdraws, 70m rope, helmet. That's it.
In addition to your gym equipment (harness, climbing shoes, jagbag + jog, belay device + carabiner).
If you like, better clothing, better approach shoes, a backpack etc.
For me, probably the best investment in my climbing: belay glasses. Once i forgot them at home before sports climbing outside. I can tell you: I'll never forget them again! ;)

Thanks for all your info about the gear
They removed the slippy to make it more grippy.
Sorry, I can’t quit looking at Charlie’s beanie; and believe me, I’m trying !
It's bugging me, which pub?
Had to bring it up in the pub after the wall today, our leading contender is The Stickle Barn in Langdale, still bugging me though.
@@Rambleale Yeah its the National Trust Sticklebarn
2:48 did anyone else hear painted I was just wondering if he said patented

Lets talk about nuts now
He says again a lot when he's not actually saying something he's said before 😂 🤔
I noticed that as well!
Class rack
So... the professional carries an absolutely normal trad rack, except it is all stuff from his sponsor. Not a lot of surprises here!
Exactly my thoughts. What do the pros carry? Same as everyone else.
The gear isn't what makes someone a good climber.
from TRAD-itional you have only cup on you table! Watch an old movies
First
What's On A Pro Climbers Trad Rack? Alex, um, a chalk bag... :) (yes, I know he is not always free soloing).
This might as well be a dmm advertisement lol. Not to shit on dmm, they make great gear. But it is pretty disingenuous to call it "What's on a pro climbers trad rack" because this is just a dmm product show.
He’s a pro climber sponsored by DMM...therefore it’s pretty logical we’d say he has DMM gear...Matt did one a while ago which was a bit more of a mixture 😂 th-cam.com/video/Sc8fmqwqg3s/w-d-xo.html
