Liability Waiver

Due to the dangerous nature of the sport, insurance is not an option. A relaese of liabilty must be signed and returned before any trips commence.

this should be in spray, obviously everyone is making fun of this guy.

So I called up the guy in the video. He is a nice guy. Here is the scoop: He created Climb On Adventures to take some friends on a few trips. He hasn't really "guided" since. He has no formal training and is only going off of what was taught to him. I know I used a lot of the same techniques when I first started climbing, many years ago. I have since learned the folly of my ways after many years of experience and formal training from the AMGA.

An acquaintance of his is a film maker for Expert Village and got him to make these videos. Expert Village also is responsible for the poor wording of the titles, such as chalks vs. chocks. They were merely transposing what the thought they heard.

He has petitioned Expert Village (who uploaded the videos to You Tube) to remove most of them. Now it is in their hands. By only bashing this guy, we have have shown a bad side of the climbing community.

Whether climbing recreationally, or guiding, we are a small community and should be supportive of each other. This guy would have thought we were all just a bunch of jerks and not done anything if someone hadn't actually talked with him.
