    the yellow arrow means its part of a parkour... where you run from one boulder to the next...

    If you go back there, could you do a video on the logistics of visiting Font for those that have never been. Where to stay, eat, costs, which guidebooks or apps are best, parking, the walk in and finding the boulders, can you get by if you don't speak French etc.

    Ive become a fan of going to less "popular" crags. The climbs are great and the rock is better quality. Did you ever try the lower start to good vibrations? Super pumpy

    Has someone told you about the circuits? And what they represent? Or even better have you tried one?

    • @walrusclimbing
      @walrusclimbing  7 месяцев назад

      We haven't tried one yet, but it's definitely on our list! What do you mean with "what they represent"? Do you mean they combine the same grade?

    • @dennis1802
      @dennis1802 7 месяцев назад +1

      I’m sorry i’m dutch so english is not my native language, but the’re not just a group of boulders they were opened by climbers who trained for the alps. So they represent big mountain routes, it also about route finding and exposure training as they climbed it without crashmat. The circuits with the high grades were either that or testpieces from the locals in what could be done. Imagine they had no crashmats so it was a psyche thing too. This is in very short said of course

      @@EthanJahnz yeah, i understand. haven't and probably won't wear it climbing outdoors... i don't feel bad bumping it against doorframes or wood or my car door, but if i hit it against a rock i certainly think the steel and glass could get scraped :/

      i also wear my Venu 2, especially for route climbing. it has an activity tracker that shows data on each of your climbs.
      i have a protective folie on the face and dont have any noticable scratches after 1.5 years of bouldering and climbing with it on
