How do you tell if your tools are on a good feature or not? There are tests for that! Tricks of the dry winter trade that will help anyone get improve.
@@willgadd2187 Woah!!! I never in a million years expected to get a reply from Will Gadd! I’m a huge fan of all your work, not just the ice climbing and Ive found a great deal of interest in your collaborations with scientists to help our planet. Really just so awesome to use your unique experiences to fight that battle for those of us not in the same position. Thanks for making these videos and engaging with the community, it means a lot
Hey Will, I'm pretty new to ice climbing, get it maybe once a year down in Arkansas, but I'm looking to supplement it with dry tooling. Any advice on starting out? Should I be concerned about scarring exisitng rock routes?
Not sure what you mean, but I probably should have chosen another career than ice climbing if I wanted to get rich. I chose fun and good people, no regrets.

Will, can you do a gear review and overview? Clothes/layering, tools, gloves, boots, etc.
That' a good idea, thanks, yes!
@@willgadd2187 looking forward to it, your videos are very helpful.

Maybe I should wear mouth guard out the first few times lol
Can't hurt, but with good technique I don't see many dental or facial accidents from tools. Flying ice, yes :).

Yes. Look for dry tooling specific crags. Those are often on rock that is uninteresting for normal climbing.
How does one decide when to use the tool and when to just grab the rock with your hands?
When it's below freezing it's really hard to use your hands for more than a move or two, so the tools are usually better, but not always...
