      @@MrWill830 It never stops to be. I've tried almost every high end shoes from UP, except the Souped UP that fits 99% my feet everywhere, every other are just hella painful at first. but best rubber on the market for plastic and that's what I do mostly. Souped amazing for soft sandstone in Fontainebleau also. I just bought a pair of Qubit today at street shoe size for sport climbing haha

      I'm surprised they're still using some of those older style big Friends with no thumb loops. Having a thumbloop and the trigger keepers on the new BD C4's in size 4 and up makes them a joy to handle for wide cracks.

    • @M0dElite
      @M0dElite 5 месяцев назад

      @@Govanification Wow, I didn't even notice that! I think it's because Pete is sponsored by Wild Country. I had to go to the Wild Country website to see if the bigger Friends have thumb loop, but no. Numbers 5,0 and 6,0 don't have it. Definitely an upgrade that is needed, especially for a bigger cam, as the head is heavier and makes your thumb slip easily when placing it. And the trigger keepers in BD cams are nice too. 🙂

    Hey maybe someone can help me. Im doing a crack in my hometown but im having problems. What i have to do if the crack IS too wide for a handjam but too narrow for a fistjam?

    • @Govanification
      @Govanification 5 месяцев назад

      Cupped hands, like a hand jam but really bridge your fingers and back of hand against the sides. Try doing that thumbs down and torque your elbow down, that will fill some space. After that you can do a "squashed" fist jam where you make your hand into a cone shape to get it in the crack sideways like a regular fist jam but it fits a bit smaller.

      I wouldn't try it next week. But as far as i know, the army is currently installing a temporary bridge.
      The route is probably not going anywhere. Give it some time to get a weather change and the ground to dry a bit. But i wouldn't expect that the roads are fully open to tourists in the next couple weeks, since there is a temporary bridge between Visletto and Cevio (main road).
      If you're interested, there are English news on "swissinfo".
