  • A sweaty slab is the perfect place to test a new helmet! The updated version of the Petzl Borea and Boreo helmets offer all round climbing protection at a reasonable price. However, with lighter helmets on the market does this helmet deserve a space in your gear collection?

    As a male climber with long hair, I appreciate the pony tail notch.

    Any chance you could do a video on the Black Diamond Vision helmet with MIPS? I’d love to see a run down of that versus the Mammut Wall Rider with MIPS. Any other MIPS climbing helmets?

    Are you driving an english car (with steering wheel on the right) in France, where we drive on the right ?

      It works fine, as long as you have a clip stick for the highway toll booth.

    Nice editing / story / music. I don't care about the helmet to be honest but I loved the video!

    I am definitely goin to buy one. I really appreciate the all around hard shell cover (or however you call it). I feel like the extra couple of grams are a good investment, especially for multi pitch or alpine stuff.

    6:46 If I see correctly and you are belaying seconding climber directly from yourself with ATC or reverso (without clipping rope to anchor) It is pretty dangerous and you should never do that! It's close to holding rope just with hands.

      look behind him, he seems to be secured to the anchor

    • @hookercz
      @hookercz 4 роки тому +3

      @@artkingvie He probably is that is not what I am pointing at. If you use ATC to belay seconding climber from yourself the rope needs to go from ATC to anchor (above ATC) and from there to climber. If you want to belay from anchor you can use guide mode. The way he is belaying in case of unexpected fall or heavier climber you will have hard time catching the fall and even holding heavier climber. It is hard for me to explain it in english (not a native speaker) but in case of fall breaking hand would need to be in opposite direction of rope coming from climber (through your body :) to have proper friction in ATC.

      @@hookercz I fully agree! Was thinking the same thing when i saw this. You are supposed to use the big ring on the end of the ATC. This way with the rope insert correctly in the ATC the rope is also selfblocking. As far as i can see, the ring is not used at all. This is not the way an ATC works for belaying on a multi pitch tour for the 2nd climber. You could do this with an HMS knot but not with an ATC.
      I was a little supprised when i saw this as this channel is refering a lot about climbing gear and I was expecting everyone here should know it.
      Still like the videos please don't get me wrong on this, just wanne everyone to stay save ;-)

      Went climbing in Scotland last winter and one of my partners did exactly the same thing when pitching. Needless to say I wasn't very happy approaching the belay.
      His explanation was that 'it safeguards the belay, because it is more dynamic this way'. Agreed, if the belay isn't too solid you could belay directly on the harness, but then it should run from ATC>Anchor (quickdraw)>climber. The way Matt is and my Scottish buddy was belaying is DANGEROUS!
      I'm guessing it is a British thing, but it come on guys... In this video the belay is solid as hell, you have an ATC, just use it in guide mode...

    • @di3kling3
      @di3kling3 4 роки тому +1

      @@ThomasWuyts Harnes is the smaller problem here. I wouldnt mind that too much. The bigger problem i see here is that he is not using the ring in the back of the ATC. This way the ATC has almost no friction cause the rope makes a simple U turn around the carabiner. (i know he is holding the rupe upwards and this way he creates a bit more friction. It is still not the correct way to belay a 2nd climber from abouve)
      The way he uses it is for leed climbing and toprope climbing...

    If you're going to get a helmet, go with the Petzl Meteor. Much better and lighter helmet.

    • @waspgaming9077
      @waspgaming9077 4 роки тому +2

      Actually, the meteor (like the bd ones) does no have a "real" abs shell, making them quite fragile, while the boreo is like an old school abs helmet + the foam & side protection. Weight difference is only like 60g & I picked up a boreo for 29.99€ the other day... I think that's hard to beat

    I am sure it is tested to pieces already but I feel like helmet reviews should show off its durability to being hit?

      @Destort 4 роки тому

      They did a little bit here ua-cam.com/video/fQKPppUcpK0/v-deo.html. To be honest, I'm really looking for is comfort/looks. I feel like 100% of the helmets will do the job if it's ever needed. The question really is will the climber be willing to wear it every time?
      I hate wearing my current helmet (Old Black Diamond Half Dome) and I only really break it out on trad/multi-pitch routes where there might be loose rock. If I had a helmet I liked maybe I would wear it more...
