figure8 is a rock climbing video podcast and website for everyday climbers. We don’t subscribe to the policy that you need to be Chris Sharma or Alex Hannold to be a great climber. We admire anyone who is pushing themselves to the limit of their own ability.
We advocate for safe climbing and to help get new climbers up to speed as quickly as possible without the jargon and in a non-intimidating way. Too often we hear stories of novice or infrequent climbers getting peer pressured to climb beyond their ability. This practice doesn’t help anyone.
You can engage with our cause to make climbing fun and safe for everyone. We need your help.
