you should give lead soloing with a CMC clutch device a try. works like a grigri but you can pay out more rope easily with one hand and I can not see any inherent failure modes with it

Ouch, 800 USD. It’s much cheaper to drill a hole in your GriGri, but then again I’ve never tried a CMC. IF it makes us feel safer might be worth being late on the next child support payment 😂😂

@@allaprima CMC clutch is 800g. Some people think 400g is too much (silent partner / TAZ LOV). I am 100% sure the Clutch is NOT something for most of us. Also I have yet to see someone try it for that use!!

I know this wasn't an instructional video, but around 8 minutes I noticed the screws on the front of your right leg will likely impale you in a bad lead fall, possibly severing an artery. It's a much safer practice to place them at the sides and facing back. Looks like you had a great adventure on a beautiful route! Really great vid, and thanks for sharing. Congrats on ticking such a classic route.

I never fell ice climbing on lead. I was not going to start here!!! Climbing was my first line of safety. The rope was my backup. On hard rock climbs: I fall often and need a backup to the primary belay system. Makes sense?

I’m sure there are reasons. Much detailed information. Why the Revo? And a choice over other devices? You own 2 Silent Partners as well as other devices. You have demonstrated tie off a grigri in a upright position with a chest harness and a streamlined backup system. Elmudo III. Many options for you. You also chose no backup system in place. I can thank of some reasons (specific to ice) but would like to hear from you without influence from my responses. Your skillsets are in depth.

Hey. What kind of leashes are those? I imagine they are homemade? Im intrigued that you could hang off of them in the later part of the video (unless im mistaken). Ive always wondered what it would be like to climb with leashes like that. What is the kn rating? Thanks. Hope you had fun out there. Unfortunately i have no audio so i couldnt listen to anything you said in the video lol

How do you find the evolv adjust as an axe leash? I am considering it over an elastic axe leash because it could be used for a rest or a belay like you do in the video.

@@nikcezar2445 I’d rather not test it! Have you thought buying the online course? By using a grigri and no backup, you are as close to free soloing as you can be (kinda) good thing you don’t fall! The grigri is not made to “work on its own” without an attentive belayer holding the break rope… if you get the course, you will learn a TON!
