A lot of you have asked: What's the difference between Magdust vs Superdry? (it's not just chunky vs powder…)
Magdust is my go-to for climbers with drier skin. It’s designed to give you that perfect balance of grip and moisture without drying your hands out further. On the flip side, Magdust Superdry is made for those who sweat more and need a finer, ultra-dry chalk.
Magdust is my go-to for any session. What's yours?
If you're still unsure which is best for you, this month you can buy a bag of Magdust and get a bag of Superdry for free!
If you already have a favorite, remember the 4 or 8-pack is always the cheapest way to stock on chalk.
Either way, you can use code MAGNUS for 15% off everything 👉 rungne.info/chalkup
Do you want to improve your climbing but have limited time to train?
Want to start training more seriously but don’t know where to begin?
Have you felt overwhelmed by training apps and spreadsheets?
If so, our new course with Alex Megos, How to Train for Climbing, is just what you’re looking for.
Inside the course, Alex and his long-time coach Patrick Matros, teach you their straightforward, easy-to-follow, training philosophy that allows you to maximize gains with a simple, flexible, and personalized training program.
After going through the course you’ll be empowered with the knowledge to make your own decisions and build a plan based on your strengths, weaknesses, and climbing goals.
Whether you climbed for a few years and are now looking to “train” for the first time, or have been climbing for decades and want to refine your approach to training, this course will give you the guidance you need to make you stronger, more flexible, and keep you injury free.
Learn how to overcome your fear of falling and: - be able to jump on any climb without hesitation - fearlessly climb at your limit - and have more fun climbing (without any dread or worry).
Register now for free and get instant access to Lesson 1 and our free Fear Assessment!
I’m excited to announce that over the next few weeks, I’m going to be talking about the number one thing that holds climbers back.
It’s not strength. It’s not technique.
And it’s not how hard you try.
It’s actually fear. It’s fear of falling, fear of getting injured, and fear of the unknown. I’ve been working with bold trad climber Hazel Findlay on Altitude’s newest course, Overcoming Fear of Falling. To gear up for the course launch, we’ve created a free email mini-course that can be delivered right to your inbox starting September 25th! In this mini-course, you’ll learn: -What causes fear in climbing (when it comes to your mind, it’s not always about physical safety)
-3 common fear “solutions” that can actually ingrain fear (it’s almost certain you’ve been given this damaging advice at least once)
-A safe, reliable, tried-and-tested antidote to fear of falling (thousands of climbers have overcome their fear this way)
-Signs of stress every belayer should know and look for so they can better support their climbing partners through tricky situations
-The complete 5-Step System to overcome fear of falling for good
When you sign up for the free mini-course, you’ll also be able to discover your personal Fear Index with our custom assessment. Your Fear Index is a number you can use to find out how much fear holds you back in climbing and how you compare to your friends and fellow climbers.
The Fear Index shows you how much you could benefit from working on your fear (and you’ll benefit a lot more than you might think). And the good news is: it is possible to overcome your fear of falling – and not only this, you can actually begin to enjoy falling. During the minicourse (starting on September 25), we’ll show you how! You’ll discover what’s possible in your climbing, common “solutions” that just don’t work (and sometimes make it worse!), and the antidote to fear of falling.
You can click the link in our bio or head to altitudeclimbing.com/fear/ to get the free mini-course and find out your personal Fear Index.
Want to hop on a live call with me and Dave MacLeod?
If you want to improve your climbing technique, there’s no better teacher than Dave!
Dave thinks about climbing differently than anyone else I’ve met.
He’s incredibly analytical. He points out the details I never even thought of. And he has a unique ability to make learning technique enjoyable through what he calls “serious play.”
That’s why I am so excited to announce that Dave MacLeod’s climbing technique course has reopened for enrollment.
And, if you join before this Sunday, August 4, at 12am US ET you can join the Altitude Team and Dave on a live Q&A call where you can ask your specific questions about technique, climbing, or what to improve.
Arguably the most comprehensive climbing technique resource in the world, it covers everything you need to know to improve your technique.
If you want to:
- Systematically improve your climbing technique - Fill in your technical gaps - Master footwork, body positioning, and dynamic movements - Expand your technique repertoire - Improve your problem-solving abilities - Climb more smoothly and gracefully - Unlock a wider variety of climbs - And much, much more…

Throughout my decades inside climbing gyms and out at the crag, I’ve heard countless climbers say that they wish that they had better climbing technique.
When we started Altitude last year we talked to climbers from around the world in order to create courses they crave. We found that hundreds would love to deeply understand the subtleties of footwork, body positioning, hip placement, and dynamic movements, and to feel more confident on both slabby and steep terrain.
That’s why, behind the scenes, we created a complete climbing technique course with Dave MacLeod.
This course covers all the essential and advanced climbing techniques inside and out. You’ll learn how to execute different techniques properly through hundreds of detailed examples and demonstrations, how to identify and overcome the technical weaknesses that hold you back from progressing through the grades, and when to use different techniques based on the terrain, shape, and positioning of the holds on the wall.
In case you aren’t familiar with Dave yet, I consider him one of the best climbing technique coaches, and he is recognized as one of the best all-around climbers in the world.
Having climbed 8C boulders, 9a sport climbs, sketchy and dangerous E11 trad and XII,12 mixed routes, and even an 8b+ free solo, it’s safe to say he trusts his climbing technique with his life.
This course is something truly special, and will officially open its doors on Wednesday, April 24th.
In the lesson, Dave breaks down a unique footwork technique that you can use to climb better in your very next session, and make “impossible” moves feel easy.
After months of work, I’m super excited to share Adam Ondra’s first-ever lead climbing course with you.
We created this course with Adam to help you climb harder routes than you ever imagined, push beyond your physical limit, and show yourself what you’re truly capable of (without the need to get any stronger).
Imagine the next time it’s your turn on the wall…
…you look up at a route a whole grade above what you ever climbed before and think, “I got this.”
…you climb the route with newfound confidence, flow, and intuition (and get less pumped than you expected)
…and once you send it, your climbing partner turns to you with a look of confusion and admiration, and asks “When did you get so strong!?”
I am confident this will happen to you once you go through Adam’s course because we’ve now seen it happen over and over again with the climbers that Adam coached.
I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time and can't wait for you to check it out.
To get all the details about Adam’s course click here:
Over the past year, I’ve been working on a new project.
It’s called Altitude, a climbing platform with online courses taught by the best climbers in the world (like Adam Ondra, Alex Megos, and Daniel Woods to name a few).
On February 7th, we’ll be releasing our first online climbing course with the one and only, Adam Ondra.
It’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen.
Adam worked together with our team for over 6 months and brought the same dedication and passion he has for climbing to the creation of the course. And the result is truly something special.
