  • Ice bulges maybe cause more falls than any other feature. The ice sucks where it rolls back, you can't see your feet, and people tend to rush it. Here's how to pull an ice bulge with if not style at least minimal fish flopping.

    Will is a treasure. All the experience and knowledge and the ability to teach others. So rare. We must protect Will at all costs.

    All of these videos seem like common sense. I think that speaks to Will's teaching prowess. I find myself thinking "of course I'd do that, what else would I do". But of course, that's not the case at all. He himself said "it took me 10 years to figure this out" for a lot of stuff

    Yeah, its really a transistion going from steep to flat, my Scottish climbing instructor always taught us to put protection, right at the top of the steep part, and I have seen it commonplace, good to know why.

    These videos are great! I’m learning so much, and tips like these are the improvements I didn’t even know I should make

    Every kick and pick look like they sink in so effortlessly 😯

    Any advice for down climbing ice bulges, for places like thos? The first couple of bulges always trip me out. I just drive my picks in then slowly work my body down til I get good feet

      Practice on a TR, once you get the moves dialled it's not too bad!
