Climbing pro made from knots??? Textile passive protection tested!
🕑 Added 2021-07-28 13:47:55 +0000 UTCWe finally tested soft nuts! We only tested this because you, our audience asked. And asked! And asked! This is easily our most requested test. Jenny Fischer (@jenny.lemmonpie) agreed to share some of her footage of placing and climbing on textile protection in the Czech Republic. For more cool content check out her Instagram. (https://www.instagram.com/jenny.lemonpie) If we get enough requests we might be convinced to do more testing in real rock with our 81:1 pulley system.
