Chamonix CLASSIC Route: The Gear You Need | Climbing Daily Ep.1668 - Sport
Bless her for first video! Certainly nerve wracking but well done, look forward to seeing the new content!
You could easily get another video from this in how you pack your gear. People have different approaches so would be interesting to see.
@matt doesn't makes sense to Take agressive nomic ice tools but aluminium crampons
Just campus it?
would love a vid about the cloth for this exact climb !!
Great to see Teresa join the team. Looking forward to more!
Great asset to the team matt, love watching your videos even more now 👍
Awesome that Teresa (spelling? Sry!) has been officially added to the team! The two host format is refreshing and you two seem to have a great dynamic!
Good gears guys👏🏼👏🏼 Welcome Teresa😉
Love it! Love gear! Be safe
I wouldn't mind seeing Teresa more, she has a nice upbeat personality! My gear is very old compared to the new shiny BD screws and cams...almost collector items:)
Don't put Petzl crampons, in fully-auto (FIL toe bail), on La Sportiva Nepal Evo or Cube, unless you want to meet your maker.
Nomics + aluminium crampons (ski touring) don't really make sense in my book. At the very least, take the Irvis Hybrid, that have a steel front part. Cosmics arette has lots of rock and some front pointing (single front point) at the rock crux... Aluminum crampons are going to get thrashed... Other than that, good selection of gear!
Just got the crevice rescue kit in the post this morning. Can't wait to get out with it
Out a crevice
Coffee, there must be Coffee!
The Petzl bag has pockets! No way! big bags have pockets too! So does my fanny pack! And Kangaroos have pockets too!!
Thank you sir & mam.
very good video!!!
God I’ve been missing this
Great episode! I’d really like to see a video on what to wear on such a climb.
What about multiple day trips? Best kinds of backpacks and also what food/waterbottles to bring?
Alpine Guide here. For 3-5 days i take a 30-40l Backpack. Normally i take a the north face Phantom 38l
I use a drink system from Hydrapack. For food i Just throw it into a plastic/drybag
What book was that route book with photos ?
I thought the arete fell down, was in Chamonix last year, didn't realise it was still possible to climb tbh 😂
what book where you reading in the beginning of the video
wow
Where are the links for the items?🤦🏻♂️
I think you should also mention glasses and gloves
X2 Prussik rope (2mm smaller than rope you are using)
What book were you lokoing at to find the routes?
Chamonix - Rockfax by Charlie Boscoe.
Hi, one question, can i use pure magnesium carbonate bought from the drugstore in place of propper climbing chalk?
I cant buy online due to my country's restrictions and due to climbing not being big here i cant find it anywhere... i have been living off my gym's free liquid chalk, but i'm going for outdoor sports climbing for the first time in a few weeks (the instructors buy their chalk outside the country when they travel) and i'd like to have my own chalk.
Thanks!
Federico Olivares it works, just make sure to use moisturizer after
I was going to click the thumbs down, until the sign off! Teresa totally saved the show! I mean the gear was good, but then that good bye really spoke to me. ha ha
What's the book name?
It's nice to see a new host. Try not to be so camera shy Teresa! Stare into the camera like Matt does. It'll get more comfortable with time obviously.
What book is that? Cheers
Ya, I like something I saw
The barrier for entry for alpine climbing seems so high. Is all of that kit entirely necessary? It seems so.
If you re a rock climber and a skier you already own some equipement, to give it a try rent or borrow the rest
There definitely is a barrier, but its not as drastic as you think. Most people start hiking, rock climbing, then once you start looking for more challenges or technical pursuits, you start accumulating gear. Many guiding companies will also provide the gear as part of their package, or you can also rent items for relatively low cost.
Whats the name of that guide book?
Chamonix - Rockfax by Charlie Boscoe.
@@10410003 Former epic Tv presenter.
@@10410003 Thank you
maybe a lighter rope? some twin or half maybe?
The case when CRAMPONS and a girl's backpack are cooler.
But the guy's shoes are better...
Guys, the Cosmiques is an easy route! By pushing all that gear you are likely to cause beginners to be burdened by huge amounts of gear. Totally unnecessary.
Stop trying to sell unnecessary gear to people who don’t know better
Man he uses aluminium crampons in rock what have you thought.
Why don't you get somebody little bit more experienced for second host? So he can talk about the insides and the usefulness of the gear, just like in ep.1326 about the Cassian Torre haul bag.
Diversity hire.. Of course they are trying to sell gear so it's good to have a novice to explain to the point of view of newcommers.
I like Matt! And I think he's doing a great job explaining simply enough so anyone can understand him.
And guess what? In a few months time she will have the experience (both presenting and climbing). Were you never new to a job?
@@richardbradley8535 totally agree with your comment
Just another "we´ll sell you some gear" type of video, not a lot of actual knowledge or thoughts put into this.
guy is hard to watch
Awful video. The girl knows nothing! Not worth watching.
No more Teresa, please!
Glassier.. 😳🙄
