Video Details

The focus of this instruction is on how to successfully transition into a climbing technique known as the "climb up." Initially, it describes starting from a lower wall and utilizing a stepping motion to achieve upward movement. The climber is encouraged to practice the full climb up movements while coordinating the arms, emphasizing the importance of raising both elbows simultaneously. Additionally, beginning with hands placed at the front edge, employing a bit of momentum can facilitate the ascent, drawing a parallel to techniques like vaulting.

As progress is made, practice can vary in height to find a comfortable starting point. Instead of remaining in a hanging position, the technique involves pushing up to transition onto the top of the wall, thus bypassing the need to hang during the maneuver. The instructions include adjusting hand positions to ensure that the elbow is directly above the wall, which serves as a critical pivot point. The climber is urged to maintain a smooth momentum to elevate their hips high enough for a proper chest alignment for the push needed to complete the movement.

Finally, to reinforce the learning process, the climber should experiment with different methods of practicing the climb up from this elevated position. Stressing the significance of hip height and momentum, this instruction systematizes the practice of climbing up, preparing climbers for a successful execution of the technique in various scenarios.

Key points:

  1. Begin practicing the climb up from a lower wall and use stepping motions while synchronizing arm movements.
  2. Transition from a hanging position to pushing up and onto the wall, ensuring proper hand and elbow positioning for effective leverage.
  3. Varying the height and incorporating momentum into the practice can enhance performance and lead to successful execution of the climb up technique.

The Lesson

Demonstrate any method of getting over a wall that is head-height or greater using only your hands and feet.

No forearms, elbows, knees, shins, or any other body-part can be used other than the palm of the hands and the feet. Over-grip on the opposite of the wall is allowed.

Wall width must be of standard brick-length or less.

You must finish standing on top of the wall.

You must repeat three times.

so the next step of getting the climb up
10.2
is using a lower wall and uh stepping
13.96
into the climb up um so you're doing the
17.32
the full climb up movements with the
19.199
arms and it's you're going to try and
20.8
get both elbows up at the same time and
23.4
your hands are going to start on the
24.84
front edge but this time you're going to
27.16
use a little bit of momentum sort of
28.8
like a pop Vault or a run um to help you
33.04
get up on top so um you you can start as
36.64
low as you like wherever you feel
38.8
comfortable you practice on varying
41.2
Heights until you know what that is but
43.879
from here instead of being on the side
45.84
of the wall uh like hanging in an arm
47.96
jump position uh this time I'm going to
50.84
go from here push up and then I'm on on
55.239
top so I I don't have to worry about my
58.359
hang and uh trying to from the Hang
60.8
position I'm starting here doing the
63.48
hand position as well but from here up
67.52
and on top so first step is getting the
70.52
hands flat on top so your elbow is then
74.08
above the wall that's going to be your
76.08
pivot point and the momentum of the step
78.52
in is getting your hips high enough so
80.64
you then got your chest above so you can
83.2
then do the push so from here again up
87.52
and push and that would be again another
91.119
method of practicing the climb up uh

before you get to the climb up

jump position uh this time I'm going to

18
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:57,000
go from here push up and then I'm on on

19
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,000
top so I I don't have to worry about my

20
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,000
