All the climbing gear I use

[@SQUIRTGANG]

As someone who has skateboarded for 20+ years I can definitely relate, I’ve probably spent $4000 on decks alone not accounting for trucks and wheels, bearings, bushings, griptape, wax, and SHOES. It adds up, but there is no price too great for a lifelong journey of joy. ❤️

[@Phantazmay]

2k on this particular hobby sounds great tbh. The lifestyle seems incredible.

[@NoahKane]

I know right! 2k is like a single mediocre mountain bike

[@deanfitzsimmons8766]

All that stuff is pretty cheap to buy, I found that surprising

[@daltonsteele5954]

Don't be fooled! This lifestyle will rob your money and take over all your spare time. Not complaining tho. Worth every penny! 😅

[@Hansipansieiki]

especially when you consider that you don't buy everything in one week, it accumulates

[@finnthefrog4354]

grigris are not always gonna lock if you don't have ur hand on the brake strand so do not use it hands free if there is a life on the line

[@thenickguy2012]

he was talking about using it as a progress capture when on a fixed line. If it’s already locked you’re pretty okay to go hands free, throw an overhand under you if you think something weird might happen

[@gabrielgluskin-braun9908]

Great video, I’ve done an accounting on my own gear recently and watched the $ add up… working at REI for a bit helped out. For anyone out there, the big ticket items like ropes and draws and trad protection are not only expensive but also probably not something youre going to get until you are confident enough and experienced enough to use them safely. Ive been climbing for five years and I am nowhere near ready to actually go out and use the handful of cams I have. Yes, all this gear makes climbing seem inaccessible but really a pair of shoes and a harness will get you going on most climbing. After that, find a mentor/class to teach you how to use the rest safely, and invest as you become ready.

[@zachparade2791]

I’m brand new to the climbing community, so it was really helpful when you explained what a piece of equipment is used for. Wish you would have done it with each piece of gear. Maybe that’s for another video though. Btw, I’m a new sub and am really enjoying your content. Thanks!

[@NoahKane]

Sure, just wanted to give a good overview, but if you have more specific questions there is plenty of information out there!

[@Paularite]

2k can seem to be a lot, and yes it is quite an amount of money to spend, but a climbing rack is usually built over years of practice where you buy here and there the gear you need. So I feel like spending 2k over several years on hobby that you love and spend a lot of time doing is quite reasonable

[@1kaotyk]

I think its a decent amount to spend on a hobby. It is on what you need rather than what you want.

[@NoahKane]

very true! it's like 2k to save my life!

[@xavierg2950]

True but its gradually acumulated. Most people start with a harness and shoes snd go out with their friends, (I got some used shoes for 50 CAN and a new harness for 80 CAN) Thats 100 US. After that you can get a rope and a few draws and then bring out other friends. Only those that become pretty passionate go for the whole trad rack which is what is most expensive 100 dollars per cam where I live but by that time you probably know somebody with a discount on these things xD

[@elliotthershey3376]

I love climbing gear videos!

[@NoahKane]

cheers!

[@deviopande7097]

5:07 close your eyes and listen, it just keeps going ☠️☠️

[@betweenthelinesfishing3465]

Where are you getting your gear at these prices?

[@MountainCreations0]

I got a new set of gear because I have been climbing with friends and decided to get my own gear and love this sport.

[@sciencesaves]

👍 nice. My daughter and I just got into climbing and it cost around $3,000. So your $2000 for one person seems reasonable and on par for a budget-ish climber

[@NoahKane]

so glad to hear you guys getting into it! Where are you climbing?

[@LaRa-om6pi]

So interesting, thanku❤️

[@NoahKane]

of course! thanks for commenting on like all of my videos, i see you!

[@LaRa-om6pi]

[@SonofIce514]

@Noah Kane Are there any videos on anchors building?

[@berna0470]

Where have you bought one ice screws at 6$?

[@noodlebanana7512]

Noah the most stylish climber out there fr 💖

[@nicksidor]

How much $ and what company is your shirt though?

[@PlutoniumDG]

wait, you never had to replace the rope or the shoes?

[@matttcameron_]

2k definitely seems worth it. When you're spending money on the lifestyle you want and truly enjoying it I don't think you can go wrong with spending your money this way. I'm just getting into climbing and you can get buy with shoes, harness and chalk for a while just climbing in the gym. In terms of a hobby, climbing doesn't have a huge upfront cost, especially if you consider renting gear at a gym.

[@matthewarias476]

Nice! I wish my trad rack was as big as yours lol

[@NoahKane]

I've just been building it up over the past year piece by piece! Used gear is totally valid too

[@cottonhiker]

It doesn’t matter how much you’ve spent on anything you have!? If it’s worth it to you and you’re satisfied, “than it’s worth it!?” 🙏👌🏻

[@NoahKane]

amazing point!

[@thewok1313]

Noah flemming is what you will look like with maxed out strengh stats

[@KrispyLegend69]

Eh, it's not too bad. Coming from backpacking where my most recent purchase was $650 on one item. Ouch!

[@wyatthollett]

Not a bad price at all for gear that will save your life in exchange for the opportunity to do something awesome

[@williamdon3442]

If one of your pieces of equipment is defective, is it more to get it repaired or just replace it??? And why climbing???

[@lucidstatedept1267]

Hey! What kind of shoes do you have tho?

[@DavidVargas-bt9rr]

How do you get your rope back after you repel

[@ondrejbenes404]

You have your rope in two strands - the half is cliped at the top of the rock and two strands lay down. On top of rocks the are usually bolts made for rappeling. Or you just let a piece of gear (sling and carabiner) on top. After rappelling you just pull on one strand and the rope falls down.

[@DavidVargas-bt9rr]

@@ondrejbenes404 thanks

[@FBi_.]

I dont what any one says that shirt he always has on is cool

[@vishwajeet10singh]

Want to meet you one day and climb with you

[@weeb3244]

I know people who have spent far more on far less in hobbies that don't seem nearly as fulfilling

[@leonstellander8602]

This makes me realize climbing gear in Norway is reaaallly overpriced lol

[@NoahKane]

unfortunately! Hopefully it's not too bad

[@bsheelflip]

Idk… US climber here who has spent $250 on a rope, $180 for shoes, and $100 on a grigri. Of course, there is a range you can expect to pay and those were on the high end
