montypiton Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I presume you've tried Chessler... if it doesn't exist there, it probably doesn't exist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've looked everywhere and also sent an email to Jeff to ask if he had plans to release it to digital (no response) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookiejar Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 Yes I checked Chessler and they don't have it I sent my VHS player to a goodwill store last time I moved. I didn't expect I'd ever need it again. Oh well, time to borrow a VHS player, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvs Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I loved that video, used to watch it on boring cardio machines. Mine mysteriously disappeared 5+ years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromage Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 That video also featured many excellent examples of what not to do while ice climbing. Such as: - using your ice tool as a belay anchor. - stacking screws, not only useless but time and energy intensive. - confusing belay commands, "Okay, Bird, we're safe." - using Snargs "the dreaded pound-in" (Jeff, was that a euphemism?) It had some memorable narration: "Drink deep of the heady wines of climbing in the canyon" or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
