Master the art of sport climbing with personalized coaching. Join Alizee Dufraisse, a renowned female climber, for an immersive coaching course that will help you enhance your climbing abilities, technique, mental strength, and overall performance. Through personalized guidance and analysis, we'll take your climbing skills to new heights. Unlock your true potential and conquer new challenges on the wall.
As the name of this course indicates, participants of this course are granted to learn a whole set of tricks and mental skills to approach, project, and climb hard routes at their limits, as well as the ability to handle mental pressure, fears, and stresses. All Rockbusters climbing trips and courses are based on the "LEARN by DOING" philosophy. As a result, you will get all the coaching when climbing the best routes at a crag and spending as much time on the rock as you possibly can. At Rockbusters we believe that only practice makes you better and thus goal number one is MAXIMIZING YOUR CLIMBING TIME.
As a bonus, spend the whole week climbing and testing climbing shoes of your choice from our EVOLV DEMO pack. There is no doubt that the biggest impact on your climbing performance is important as a part of your technique, power, and mind to have suitable and properly sized climbing shoes. Starting summer 2022 we are joining forces with Evolv, the US's biggest rock shoe manufacturer to allow you to join Rockbusteres to test and demo the high-performance Evolv shoes in real action on the rock.
Physical & technical requirements
All necessary skills and knowledge to attack routes at your limits (or beyond your imaginary limits) such as:
Climbing performance is defined by the combination of these three components: mental power, physical power, and technique skills. We will be discussing how big a part each component has in your climbing performance. For a performance climber, the goal is to approach mastery in all these areas in order to reach their potential. And it doesn’t matter if you are a sport climber, boulderer or you aim for hard big wall climbs.
There is no one better qualified than Patxi Usobiaga to lead this course. Patxi, an ex-world champ, and a “training monster” say that his “talent is to be able to suffer”. He is one of the world’s best climbers and has coached pros like Chris Sharma, Adam Ondra, and Daniel Woods to name just a few.
Pair up with Patxi for a week of climbing and training sessions, send some cool on-sights, flashes, or red points in his home destination of Oliana, and find out where your main limitation is and how to improve your overall climbing performance. Simply climb BETTER, HARDER & MORE!
Mental power (fear, concentration, motivation, frustration, …)
Physical power (maximum power, resistance power, stamina, explosiveness, weaknesses vs strengths, …)
Technical skills (footwork, balance, proper use of techniques such as sidestep, drop knee, flagging, resting, breathing, how to grip properly - crimp, open hand, pinch, …)
Minimum of 3 participants. In other cases, we will offer different trips/courses of the same or higher value or issue a full refund.
reasonably tight climbing shoes, harness, helmet, belay device, screw gate carabiner
We provide most of the gear, but you will need to bring your own climbing shoes and harness. We have belay devices, slings, and helmets, but you might prefer to bring your own you use to. We strongly suggest bringing a down jacket, a hat, a rain jacket, a pair of comfortable approach shoes, a headlamp, a sleeping bag, and a backpack big enough for carrying lunch and gear to the crag.
