One additonal very impotant thing: Don't climb on wet sandstone! After rainfall, take a break of at least 2 dasy to let the rock dry out. Sandstone is very fragile when wet, even when it looks like it dried from the outside
Good tips! Start easy is definatly a good one, especialy for people who (mostly) climb indoor (like me). Most important tip clean shoes, respect the rocks, its sad how some of the boulders have been polished. Heading for Fontainebleau in two days, yeaaaaahaaaa.
Hey guys, really loved this video, booked my first font trip two days ago and I am way too keen for it 😂 Could you please tell me the make of the portable hangboard?
Tip 11: Don't climb on wet rock, it's fragile !

Some spots are badly affected by erosion. Sandy soil is very fragile. Stay on the tracks, avoid further digging the sand...
👍 yep, keeping the forest free from as much unnecessary erosion as possible :)

Thank you, psyched you’re getting to Font!
It’s a Crusher hang board-very lightweight
Hope you have an awesome time!
@@TheClimbingNomads Thanks so much 💪
8:14 there is no chance you actually put that lotion on lol
I made a 3 month exchange to Fontainebleau 😊
Awesome, which climbs did you get on?
@@TheClimbingNomads I never had the ability to climb there but I'm sure I can do it when I'm there again next year:)
The only tip is to take away any rubbish with you and leave it for others in the future to enjoy
And do not forget, respect the woods, Dont climb on rocks with moss growing on them, because your remove precious habbitat.
Don’t use chalk! Use poff instead
Tip 0: Brush your Holds whilst and after climbing.+ take a bag for your rubbish to the session.
Good video! Thanks!
I find it kind of sad that people need guides to climb natural rock. Maybe we should label trees as well?
...one day ... One day
Big tip...go in early July when the Django Reinhardt festival is on..you'll get the best boulders AND the best gypsy guitar music in the world 😜
Can't get better!
Nice vid guys. Wee tip from a Paris local; it's Bleau as in "Blow" not Bleau as in "bleugh" 👍
