Episode # 15 - Tight Climbing Shoes and Other Bad Beta The Bad Beta - A Climbing Podcast

On this week’s episode Alex Handhold takes a break from talking about his epic solo to discuss his foundation, Peter Croft keeps asking us to throw the ball, and Steve discusses an encounter with Cosplayers while ice climbing.
We argue about whether or not beginner climbing shoes are useful when you first start climbing (Matt is alone in thinking absolutely not).
We close out talking about competition bouldering and dry-tooling; both of which are, spoiler alert: very silly.
*Please support Anna's 2024 Olympic fund for speed climbing.
