actually this vieo should be called; how to take your mother in law and belay her out of your life. lol
-
this is...
-
The climber looks pretty nervous, and for good reason.
-
There is nothing wrong with this technique, I don't know what you guys are all whining about. This is standard belaying technique.
-
Why is this titled How to belay YOURSELF? This is clearly how to belay SOMEONE ELSE.
-
This is definitely one of the worst "How to Belay" videos I've seen on youtube. Besides the fact that neither one of you are wearing a helmet, this technique is BEYOND outdated! Brush up on your skills, get some formal training. If not...then stop making videos that will put new climbers in danger after watching this garbage.

well you people arent really climbers. i have been ckimbing for 20 years and just use an ATC. never needed an expensive piece of gear ever
-
@youdavintube uh, no helmets?
-
Horrible belaying technique. What happens when he falls while your sliding your right hand down the extra rope while above the ATC...your hand will be inside the ATC before you could react, making it a bad day for both.
-
that is terrible, unsafe belaying technique
Don't learn how to belay from this video, or any video. Get a competent friend or instructor to show you.
Then show them this video and they'll cringe and tell you whats wrong with it. (It may take a while!)
