    Having known John (the founder) personally, I know he'd be totally psyched with where the charity is today and how it's grown.
    In the last 10 years CAC has raised and donated half a million £s to 14 different countries across 5 continents, and for the 10th anniversary the charity is targeting 10 large donations of another 10k each!!
    The 10 year anniversary tshirts (what I'm wearing in the video are on a limited edition run. There are 1000 prints and once they're gone, they're gone.

    Question: do climbers cheat sometimes by the belayer taking the weight on crux moves? Is this a thing and is it just called out when seen or used when making videos? Is this why comp. climbs don't allow belayers?

    • @madisonpombo859
      @madisonpombo859 Před rokem +2

      I’ve always called this/heard it called a “power belay”. Where on top rope the belayer jumps and takes in as much slack as possible to help boost the climber through a crux move. This isn’t used to cheat necessarily, but I’ve done it when I can’t do a move but want to try the rest of the route. Or you are outdoors on a multi pitch route and everyone needs to get to the top so you can keep going. Comps are all either bouldering, which is done unroped and doesn’t have a belayer. Or lead, which does have a belayer, but because the climber is taking the rope up with them, you can’t do this same power belay because there is always slack in the system. So this wouldn’t be an issue in comps.

It is still not an issue during competitions because of how much slack they leave in the system, as said previously, both so the falls are soft and injury free, and so that the rope doesn't help / grief climbers
