    I think the clip at min 3:00 where the climber hits the ground shows exactly why you should avoid clipping above you. To avoid decking at the second bolt it's much safer to be higher up for the clip since there isn't as much rope in the system in case of a fall.

    • @davide5429

      Yeah I take it as a general rule of thumb to clip from waist height. Obviously there are exceptions, but I think it’s safest and easiest

    • @BetaClimbers
      @BetaClimbers  3 роки тому +25

      It’s can also be very situational the position can be much more stable down lower. But that is also why I think, if that was the the case, there should be a bolt there.

    Good point about the "wrong" bolting in some areas. Here in Belgium, all 'classic' and old bolted routes have a ridiculous bolt distance. Mostly in lower grades, which I totally don't understand. If you're new to climbing, you don't want to poop your pants because of the 6m in between bolts. It's just stupid.

    • @M0dElite
      @M0dElite 3 роки тому +4

      I don't know the local climbing history of Belgium, but at least here in Finland the older routes were bolted with the idea to prevent ground falls, not to make the climbing any less mental. The pioneers are pretty hard core, so they have probably given less thought on what people new to climbing might think. More than 4 meter run out is starting to sound a bit sketchy though :D

    • @mike78at
      @mike78at 3 роки тому +3

      I think this often is the case because the easy routes were intended as warm up routes and unfortunately it was not taken into consideration that they will be climbed by not so strong climbers.

    • @christkind3067

      I think a dynamic belay prevented her from flipping upside down. But she also grabbed her rope because she noticed what´s wrong.

    • @TheDudeFromKalispell
      @TheDudeFromKalispell 3 роки тому

      And: I think she caused that herself in the first place. That leg movement is intentional, she tries to avoid the rope and makes it worse in the process. But yeah, good on the belayer and herself for staying upright

    That last one was hardly a fail, she was climbing hard and instantly realized her leg was in front of the rope and tried to fix it. When it was apparent that she was going to have to deal with a fall and bad rope placement she relaxed her leg, grabbed the rope at her leg and tensed her stomach to make sure she didn’t get flipped. It was a perfect reaction to a bad situation.

    So on your bolting/stick clip comment, most routes that are being bolted now use an intentionally high first bolt to incentivize the use of stick clips. This ensures that either people are very comfortable climbing the grade or bottom section of the route, or use a stick clip as the route setters intended. This also ensures that the second bolt is sufficiently high enough to avoid the situation that was seen in the clip.

      Gear for you and your partner: SPORTCLIMBING
      preferably a 60 m rope (you also can buy a 70 m, but 60 m is enough for 90 % of all sport routes),
      around 8-12 quick draws (what routes you want to try, think about how many bolts there are),
      1 assisted breaking device (i like the Smart 2.0 and GriGri) with a HMS-biner ,
      60 or 90 cm sling with a carabiner (for anchor cleaning),
      shoes, chalkbag (obviously),
      one Helmet (two if you want to be really save; one and your partner),
      a backpack where you can stuff your climbing gear in PLUS a rope sheet (in german we call it Seilsack) so you dont have to get the knots out of the rope everytime you swap the route,
      i think these are the basics ^^
      A clipstick is also really nice to have, if you are a beginner at outdoor climbing

    3:00 point. When I coach people how to clip, I tell the climber to call out to their belayer "CLIP'. Then grab rope and pull it up to clip. This helps the climb & belayer. Keeps everyone focused.

    • @imacheetah5960
      @imacheetah5960 3 роки тому +2

      yeah, if you have your rope in a bag i often gets tangled up. that's why you just throw it on the ground, so it is lays as loosely as possible. some kind of drum where you would have 30 m or more of rope rolled onto would be super bulky i guess.

  • @evanbarnes9984
    @evanbarnes9984 3 роки тому

    There's no shame in stick clipping! I once literally once stick-clipped my way up an entire route that was right at the limit of my climbing ability. It allowed me to project a route and progress safely in a way that I otherwise could not have. It takes a while, so I wouldn't do that if someone else also wanted to climb that route, but it meant I could push myself without hitting the deck. And yeah, it was one of those 5.11 routes that was bolted by someone who climbs like 5.14 and therefore put in so few bolts that you had ample opportunity to deck if you fell. If there's a well bolted route, then just stick clip the bottom bolt or two. Either way, don't let not looking as cool stop you from wearing a helmet or stick clipping. That's way better than getting seriously hurt!

    Comment from someone trying to be aware as a belayer and a climber, u don't talk about this technique : a belayer has his climber before the third quickdraw is cliped, he should always be ready, to help shortroping in case of bad fall, to sit in the harness or at least to low his body down under the first quickdraw (must watch where ur buddy's bottom is going but that's it). Do u use that, will u mention this as a good tip for more safety when a belayer begins and can't take rope quickly enough? Good stuff ur doing by the way, from a french lover of outdoor climbing. And nice intro ;) it gives a little thing more !

    I caught my foot on the rope one time. I'm still puzzled how it happened. It was similar to the last video clip except my left foot was only 6" directly above the bolt and somehow snagged the rope. When I tried the section again I tried scooping my toe under but it was impractical as it created such a tight z, so wear your helmet, sometimes weird stuff happens.

In one of the fail videos a guy clipped over one and when he fell it snapped his biner. I think it must torque the biner in a strange way and snap them.
