Ice Climbing Technique: The 4 Layers
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2022
- Ice climbing technique can be taught in a rigid formulaic way, but this undermines the kinesthetic IQ you've developed from other forms of climbing. In this video we present ice climbing skill with the understanding you'll want to progress to more difficult grades versus always sticking to less than vertical terrain. Oh yeah, and we bake a cake too ;)

Such a great video! I've been dying for something that will help me get past feeling like a complete beginner on ice. I look forward to getting back on the ice using this as a reference. Subscribed!
Love the video man … great approach to teaching ice!
So good. Way better than all the other vids on ice climbing.
Fantastically produced piece of climbing content.
Looking forward to lots of practice this season! I like the flow, and the intuitive approach here. And I’m expecting cake when I master it :)
We will need to bake another cake... the first one was sacrificed for art, ha!
You’ve done a great service with this video.
This is the coolest place to ice climb in the world!!! And everyone is super friendly. Lance and Marcus are amazing. Highly recommend!!!
THIS MAN IS A GENIUS.
Wow finally someone out there getting outside the Aframe Box to help progress more complex structures.👏🙏
Good stuff! Loved it! I'll be back up in a couple of weeks, can't wait to work on some of these tips!
Great to hear! Hope to see you around!
Totally awesome instruction. Miss y'all!
Thanks Chris! Come visit anytime!
Most enlightening ice climbing video ever 🤯
This is awesome! I was just realizing recently how I liked drop knees in vertical featured ice and I thought I was doing it all wrong.
Ha that was class! Great video. Very funny. Very informative!
I'm hungry now... CAKE!!!
Moooooore Vids please. Keep going 🙌🏼
Nice! I'm no highly experienced instructor, but I suspect this is a fantastic approach for rock climbers transitioning to ice. No surprise that since I, too, learned the traditional triangle method, I feel the triangle more generally works well as a starting point. I'm a little confused at 1:27 about a "tool vibrating"? I'd say when the tool sinks in with a THUNK and doesn't move, AND you pull down to test it and it feels solid, it's GTG. But this IS the overall, out of the box (or triangle!) approach I've been looking for to advance up columns. Love the innovative and humorous presentation, and the excellent demo and narration. Thanks!
i stumbled across this video by accident (or by youtube recommendations, rather). It's one of the most entertaining videos on proper technique I've seen in a long time, if ever.
Great job!
Question: what happens if you wear boots other than Scarpa? I haven’t seen a single ice climber wearing anything else so far
Awesome! Any new videos coming out soon? Miss your videos.
spending 1st week of JAN23 at Ouray. can't wait!
This is such a fun approach to teaching helpful ice techniques! Needs more YMCA, though.
Definitely. We'll get the need for more YMCA in front of management ASAP...
Stupid question, but shouldn't you have straps on the ice pics. What if you drop one, then you can't do anything.
I'm all about that cake!
Genius
Can’t beat Peak Mountain guides!
thank you very much for the video. absolutely brilliant! One question: when i simply am standing on features or front points, my calves feel pumped just as my forearm, how do i fight that pump? Calf raises help? Does better body position help?
Thanks for your question! There are a number of factors at play with calf pump... your boots need to fit correctly and there's actually some skill involved in relaxing your calves in the same way it's important not to "over grip" the tools. Body position plays a role in this as well and how you're placing your crampons. For example, placing you foot parallel to the ice where you can weight the heel spikes can be very helpful when a placement is available.
@@Peakmountainguides thank you very much! cant wait for another ice season! too bad theres no ice near where i live atm
nice
What kind of ascender are you using at 2:00 ? Is that a micro traxion or ropeman ?
Thanks
It's a micro trax.
What kind of ascender are you using here for ice climbing ?
Thanks !
At 2 mins, it's a micro trax.
@@versusgravity Thanks!
I hope that cake tasted good because I sure didn't get any of those slices
In hindsight, we should have invested in some better cake mix. Rollie definitely made it look like a really nice cake though!
I’m hungry now :/
music is just too loud !!!!!
