One thing most people overlook. When climbing outdoors on bolted routes always try to clip the carabiner so the gate is on the same side as the bolt. If you don't do that there is a slight chance your rope pulls the carabiner up and the gate unclips. I have seen in the past. It does not take a lot of effort. Keep it in mind please.
What do you mean, "same side as the bolt."? Please explain. I do a ton of sport climbing, I am trying to visualize exactly what you are saying. Are you the redoubtable Dave MacLeod perchance? The badass climber from Scotland? Either way, please elucidate, I would love to know! Thanks.
@@ananda_miaoyin Hey! no worries brother! When you bolt a route the bolt comes with a nut, to screw it tight and a hanger, basically the bit where you clip your carabiner in. So when you clip your carabiner to the hanger do it hooking the fix bit of the carabiner into the hanger so the gate ends up on the side of the bolt and the fix bit on the side of the hanger. I hope you can visualise that. I think best way is to clip a carabiner to a bolt/hanger and turn it upside down and see it yourself. If the carabiner is on the wrong side there a chance that you can unclip it by wiggling it about a wee bit. Try it and see what happens. It is rare but it happens sometimes. I hope that helps. and by the way I am not Dave. Please ask again if it is not clear. Happy to help right here
@@ananda_miaoyin no worries. As I said it is a rare scenario but it can happen and can be easily avoided. It all happens when the carabiner is turned upside down due to the drag on the rope and because of the slant angle of the hanger where the carabiner is clipped in. Thanks brother and enjoy your climbs
This stuff makes my hands sweat watching it. I used to be I the Army. Have jumped out of planes. Rock climbed and assailed loads but for some reason rock climbing scares the shit out of me. My knees shake and it's terrifying. Wierd how some things affect us differently. Hats off to anyone who does this sport.
Always amazes me how a normal person like myself would see that as a virtually flat stone, like I could never imagine a person even finding a single hold on that, let alone climbing the entire thing
Great content, awesome stuff. But not sure about that first cam - under the little wing off the main flake - looks like it would pop off if the cam was loaded.
after 20mins of watching my hands stop sweating even though i have hyperhidrosis LOL i think its because i was so focussing on his objective on climbing
Great Video ! One question: I would call myself a climbing beginner and I've been watching some technique videos about the position of the hips. Most of them recommend to turn the hips sideways to the wall but it seems that you are not using this method, and placing the parallel to the wall. Is their no possibility in that route to turn sideways or does it make no sense for you at all?
Blackferret Don’t listen (BLINDLY) to everything others are saying. Sure, practice it, but know that everything people teach doesn’t work in all situations. Just get out, have fun and climb as much as possible. Your technique will develop with time.
A lot are also saying turn your hips into the wall to increase your reach. He had the perfect reach for most of those holds so there would have been no need. But, he did do lots of side pulls that you might be able to learn from. Not advanced, but something that most people really do need to work on.

@@MrSilencetreatment Really appreciate that. I never considered that a sport bolt had a preferred way of hanging the carabiner in it.

I hope you're safe sir. and me too honestly, rock climbing Is terrifying
Outstanding !
8:20 I almost had a heart attack with that rope... I though it was a snake hahahaha
That is so sick. What a sweet climb. Much appreciated
I do love the Las Vegas sandstone. Thanks for the view.
This rock is amazing! Beautifull holds but really scary at the same time.

The exposure is a thing that would bother me.. so out there
I’m a climber and I often feel the same way before I start a route. 😂
You need 2nd guy behind you just to collect carabiners? Or how do you take all the stuff back?
5:20 The hanger on the bolt moved a bit on ya! Scary stuff, that bolt has to be tightened!
That's why I always carry a wrench
fairly common on softer rock
How you get your safety hook back ?
Manky lookinG rock!?!Is this in Colotad0???
How does he come back? Same way?
“ missing a foot hold.. it’ll be alright “ haha
good size runout to the chains. well done
I was thinking the same thing!
LordFazza balls out

Did you use a epipen to get high?
Nice job! Good stances.
Now that its over....would you do it again?
I have to film the last 700' of 4th class stuff so I don't have a choice. ;)
Where is it?
Anybody know how they get those stuff back? Repel down and collect?
The guy belaying me collects the gear when he climbs up to meet me.
how many material you left?

From 13 min in that cliff sounded so hollow it is scary!
TÜRKİYE İSTANBUL TESEKKURLER MERHABA kutlarım dağcılık çok zor bana❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What if that wedger fails .
How do u get all those things u stick in the rock back??
The person below him climbs up after him, and they "clean" the gear
Do not let the bolt apply to hook this rock on the rocks?
Great Video !

judging by the video (as a more advanced climber) i would say that in this route there is no need for it
He is placing his hip more by sidesteping
You don't really need that in such routes since you can stand pretty good

красавцы, очень круто
Nice climb, bro!
Shitty belay station.
What if you want to pee while climbing??
TimeTraveler _01 you just...pee
Same thing as jury duty...either hold it or just go off to the side.
Theres no time to think about it at all...
Nice bro
I know that you can always trust those gear, they won't come out, but I still don't. My mental is simply not for climbing.
what happens if he farts rip belayer
