----------
Although "Rock Climb" will have more than 100 videos (7 hours+ of content), the program is designed to include maximum information in a concise way that is easy to understand and assimilate. For that reason most chapters are built on the knowledge acquired in previous ones (e.g., Rope Basics → Top-Roping → Lead Climbing → Sport Climbing → Trad. Climbing).

Rock climbing is fun but there is an element of risk. In some situations if you are not careful, the chances of serious injury or death are very real. A safety oriented mindset is essential.
The right attitude includes not thinking that just by watching videos and reading articles you will become a safe and experienced climber. Experience comes with practice. Practice means making occasional mistakes and learning from them.
We believe qualified in-person training should be the main way of learning and progressing in rock climbing. A good mentor, guide or teacher will make learning as safe as it can be, by assessing your level and every situation.
Our videos are meant to inform and entertain. Although our videos can be very helpful, they are not meant to replace in-person teaching by a qualified professional, nor they are meant to replace reading and understanding the instructions and manuals of rock climbing equipment-which we strongly advise you to do. (Manufacturers recommendations occasionally change, and it is a good idea to stay updated by visiting their websites.)
Have fun and be safe out there!
Your videos, every one of them, are gifts to the climbing community. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, and for putting in the time to create such a high quality finished product! Nothing replaces qualified, in-person instruction. But for a person(i.e. me!) back after a kids/career/cross-country-move hiatus from climbing, these refreshers are priceless.
My first lead climbing after a year of training was very good. I did fine but a little bit scared. Whole time I was thinking what if I fall in between two bolts? That would be a huge fall. Finally I did it and was very happy. When you start lead you are a real climber.
Every video you make can teach us something new and give us good tips. Keep making them please!
Never ever ever...ever forget the fist bump
Which route is this?
👍👍👍😷
Can you do a video about the top of sport climbs, this one seems great cause of those nice anchor clips but can you show a video if they weren’t there
In the next couple of days, we will be uploading two videos about "cleaning bolt anchors," with the most common ways to do it after a sport climb: cleaning the anchor and being lowered, and cleaning the anchor and rappelling.
Another solid video. Can you give me the route name? Looked very generously protected considering the area. Thanks
Thanks! The route is Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun. FA by Bob Gaines and Chris Baumann.
It's really amazing what you guys do and the knowledge that are giving to everyone, great work, It would really nice if you guys make a video about falling I mean not want to see anyone falling in dangerous situations but if you guys would explain how to fall as safe as possible on slabs or where you would have a lot of big rocks in between of the route or like chimneys I know there are a lot of situations an nothing is like proper training and experience, but, it is a subject that I think, not so many people talk about. And of course I mean lead climbing, I watched the video of how to belay, great video btw, much love, and thanks for the great work.
Hi Rodrigo, thanks for the kind words. Regarding falling, those videos should help:

What do you do if there aren’t the clip ones at the top
This video should answer your question:
