As promised viewers, im going to show you the Climb/Rappel gear I use to get crazy and adventurous in my shots. I just feel like there are not enough hands on demos of gear and methods so I hope you enjoy it. Once I get to the Philippines, there will be much more beautiful terrain in the background.

Please let me know what you like about my videos, im new at showing so I was a little nervous to say the right thing.

WARNING: I am not a certified climber, nor should you follow my methods as a justified way of learning alone. You should go talk to a professional and take a class or two and read lots of books and watch videos. I recommend "Mike Barter," youtube channel. I've leard great stuff from that guide. Also, you are taking your life in your hands with what you decide is justified for you and your style of rappelling or climbing so please be safe and have a great adventure.

Also, What you dont see here is my use of a helmet and you didnt see me tie the ends of my rope so it couldnt be sucked through my belay device. Thanks for watching and please subscribe or at least recommend my channel to someone who may benefit from them.

  • @everyone. Thanks for your comments. I wont remove this video just yet. I mentioned that im not a climb guide, nor and expert and I am working on partnering up with professionals to bring better content. For all you pros out there and all haters, take my tips as hypothesis. You guys know the proper way to turn my ideas into a bombproof system. This was me learning and ya some say stupid. I've learned alot since this video was posted. Thank you guys for positive comments. We are all learning

  • @DrJamesMartinMD do you mean adding a third point for redundancy in the system? Or do you mean a whole other anchoring point. I guess I didnt do three points because I just wanted a simple anchor and I felt like it was good. It seems three points is a climbing standard by top climb guides. Thanks for your comments and views. I'll be updating my videos soon.

  • @m1991colt, and northaunt, thanks for your advice. I will try this. Learning all the time, but its how we evolve and get better right? Thanks. I have other vids coming soon.

see all

  • @nmotiontravelguide The carabiners works just as good as the rap ring. i have never found a reason to use one personally. but you see then allot on big climber so you can put your rope threw after you clan your gear. Also a big thing i see is throwing the rope over the edge by the water. i see some kind of pips going into it, and allot of stuff can eat up your rope or weaken it. but other then that man good vid. had some good advise.
