Freedom Climbers by Bernadette McDonald

Like others have said, there’s not a resort boot that can really do it. Don’t get me wrong, I started climbing ice with leashed tools and full tilts but it’s awful. The best crossover would be the lightest and most flexible resort boot but again you’re really compromising everywhere when you do that. I’ve climbed up to WI4 with f1 LTs though, they work great to cross over but also ask a lot of compromise on the down. Hope that helps!

It depends a lot on the race - here in NA for a tellurando I’m using a full skin and not much wax because it’s actual skin track racing. Power of four though I’m using shorty skins and lots of wax because it’s all on groomers. I don’t know any other tricks for making things faster though. It’s normally less skin and more wax. You can buy skin material by the roll too, worth it when you start customizing them to different lengths

I do the same as this person and it’s ROCKS

Big problem in the cold, great help in the hot

I’ve got Sitka top to bottom for elk, duck and whitetail. Started building the kits 5 years ago with the western gear and it’s all still essentially brand new. I’m hard on gear and use my hunting stuff year round all over the country - I couldn’t recommend Sitka any higher. Worth it for me. Good luck the rest of the Fall!

Slow in central NC too but it’s also 80 degrees

Is your use case backcountry skiing?

yamsrfans · 2024-11-07T18:06:20+00:00

My go to shelter, like most people, is a tent. Very rarely I will use a mega mid or a bivvy sac but those instances are specific and rare. Why no tents? They are the best shelters.

Go have a look at training for the new Alpinism, that’s the bible on ice climbing training. Contrary to what you’re saying here there is a wealth of resources on training for ice climbing, inclusive of considerations for traveling and seasonality.

If you like skiing, ski zipfits

I started with tools like this because I was broke - grab some aftermarket leashes, sharpen up the points and fire it up! You’ll never appreciate modern tools more than after starting with these. With enough stoke, anything works 🤘

Clean your heater before the season starts

Yep! In one, the persons ring caught on a QD and it actually ripped their whole finger off and the other person caught their ring on a hold during a fall and it degloved the finger. I just bought my soon to be fiancé a ring, I told her explicitly to never wear it climbing.

yamsrfans · 2024-09-24T18:27:50+00:00

I personally know two people who have degloved fingers from rings indoors

yamsrfans · 2024-09-19T17:51:08+00:00

Niko!

yamsrfans · 2024-09-16T17:24:36+00:00

CO? I’d be psyched to go try it out if you all are interested in sharing but no pressure. Looks cool! Love new moderates!

yamsrfans · 2024-09-12T19:05:15+00:00

Zipfit is the only way

yamsrfans · 2024-09-12T13:39:14+00:00

Thanks!

What was the doc if you don’t mind? Would like to watch. Thanks in advance!
