If you are new to climbing, you will find games which introduce some essential skills (such as 'crimping' a hold - Chapter 10). If you are an old hand, you will find some great games to help add variety to your weekly club sessions (have you tried 'The Octopus'? - Chapter 6). Playing some of these games can become addictive as your friends and rivals find new ways to play. The overview of skills used in each game will help you turn play into progress. Each chapter deals with a fundamental climbing technique. Some chapters focus on a particular aspect of a climbing session, e.g. the use of foot or handholds, traversing or roped climbing. You can pick and choose activities from each chapter to suit your session and goals. Each chapter begins with a brief introduction, followed by a list of all the activities within that section along with their learning goals. The games are listed in a random order. Many of the games develop more than one aspect of climbing. To help you make the most of them, icons appear beside each title to give you information about the possible ways they can be used at a glance.

When mountain climber Simon Yates cut the rope and sent his friend and climbing partner Joe Simpson plummeting to an ordeal few mountaineers can have contemplated, the outcome was totally unpredictable. That Simpson survived his experience on Peru's Siula Grande is a revelation of the power of the human spirit to overcome fear, pain and deprivation of almost unimaginable intensity. He did not expect to live it all over again - more than once. The first test was to write his award-winning account of the ordeal in Touching the Void. That meant dragging the terrifying experience out of the deeper shadows of his memory. Next, another fall in the Himalaya crippled and almost broke him. He felt forced to test his nerve again, and struggled on crutches to 20,000 feet on Pumori, near Everest. On his descent he heard that a young, first-time climber had been killed by a chance rockfall. What sense could he make now of this game of ghosts that had claimed the lives of so many of his friends over the years he had been climbing, while he had survived so many events that should have meant certain death? In an attempt to find catharsis for his confused emotions he wrote this e xtraordinary memoir, revealing his early ife and his fifteen years of climbing on three continents, before and after the life-changing experience of Siula Grande. His gripping story recounts, with total honesty, experiences that range from hilarious to poignant to nearly unbelievable. Here are the signposts that have directed him since childhood to measure fear and embrace the unknown. He wonders about the luck or the choices along the way that have caused the loss of so many climbing friends: Ghosts everywhere I look, all Isee are ghosts - or perhaps I am the ghost, a spectre of my past, standing in the rubble of my present, anxiously awaiting the future. This is a compelling work of adventure and introspection that will hold both moutaineers and armchair travelers spellbound.

Nick Kelso's fascinating and entertaining account of almost 25 years of amateur climbing.

The climbs and adventures described are well within the scope of the average climber and offer an insight into modern Alpinism, as practised by ordinary people, with real jobs and families. Ultimately the message of the book is that the Alps are a magnificent natural playground which should be cherished and preserved as far as possible for future generations.

Before I tell you what "30 Days to Diamond" is about, let me tell you what it isn''t. This book is NOT the next 3-dollar booklet promising you all the "tips and tricks" nobody else knows. Any book that makes such a claim is ridiculous, misleading and a waste of time. ''''30 Days to Diamond" is 147 pages worth of specialized teaching, produced by a Master Tier player on both EUW and EUNE servers. It teaches all technical, strategic and psychological aspects of the game from A to Z in a very unique and effective manner. If there''s anything I''ve learned after mentoring over 60 silver and bronze players it''s that anyone, and I mean ANYONE has the potential to become a Diamond level player within a very short time, even if still new to League. In spite of all the information available online, the majority of League''s community still struggle to achieve their goals in Ranked. Nowadays, there are so many Twitch streams, YouTube channels and websites dedicated to teaching the game and yet the results are just not there for the majority. Improving from Silver to Gold is nice, but this is so much less than what progress should look like for most. Being a teacher in real life, the question I got absorbed in was: What prevents people from mastering the game to the level they want, despite them having access to all the information they need? We are talking about hundreds of thousands of players that play ranked. That''s a lot of people. Why is it that so many folks may spend weeks and even months watching Challenger streams, play League for 5+ hours a day and still not improve at the rate they could? This inefficiency is not due to the people playing the game or the information they learn from. It all has to do with how effective learning takes place. A person''s ability to learn from a piece of information is enhanced only to the degree to which they can relate to it at that specific moment. This is the factor that dictates how fast one improves over a period of time. Here is an analogy. If I were to pick two different gold 3 players for example, one may assume that they are at a similar spot on the tree of game knowledge. They are both gold 3, so they must be... right? No, their spot on that tree is unique, as is the combination of things they know and don''t know, it''s just that the net result happens to be the same. Depending on which leafs and branches of the tree they have, if they were both to be traditionally taught the same thing in the same exact way, the result wouldn''t be optimal for both. The key to overcoming those limitations is through teaching the game in the most relatable way, by utilizing the functions of the left and right brain hemispheres SIMULTANEOUSLY through associations and other learning techniques. What most people don''t realize is that their progress is not only limited by what they don''t know, but also the unconscious habits and pathways they''ve created and CONTINUE to create each time they play. Improving at the fastest rate is achieved by also following a daily practice routine that revolves around repeated behaviors that create the right habits, while unlearning the wrong ones. Basically, you transform as a player and it takes about a month. So here is my attempt to change things for the better and have a positive impact on the community. I wrote this book specifically for new and old players that struggle to reach Diamond. It''s updated and relevant to the current Season 6. Everyone that learns from it should be able to reach Diamond within 30 days of practicing no matter what their starting point is. I stand behind my statement that ANY "low elo" player has the potential to get to Diamond in a short time when taught correctly. As far as the time commitment required, playing 2-4 games a day and dedicating about an hour for the method described in Chapter 9 is plenty. The method is designed specifically for people with a job/school/other real life activities who cannot dedicate 10 hours a day to League.
