    these vids where you take people on their first ever trad climb are my favorite, it's so fun to see them go through the entire spectrum of emotions, from fear and confusion to elation and relief, especially the feelings of "shit do i even trust the gear i placed myself? i don't think i do" bc i think everyone feels like that on their first lead lol

    Really cool to see them being scared like that. I recently flew to Arizona to climb there. First time climbing outside, first time USA, first time trad climbing and first time doing a multi-pitch. It was fun and it's inspiring to see how they dealt with this trad-route. I haven't lead a route yet but I hope to next time (although that will be a sport route first).
