Training for Dry-Tooling and Going Higher in Highlinemo with Eli Ellis
Manage episode 380168194 series 3517603
Today is about all things training for dry-tooling with Eli Ellis.
Eli is a dry-tooler, coach, and professional slackliner who specializes in highlinemo, a discipline that combines slacklining at high altitudes and mountaineering. For those familiar with the conjunction "skimo", you'll see where "highlinemo" comes from.
To establish ever higher lines, Eli began ice climbing and dry-tooling. Naturally he got hooked. And within two years he was climbing M10. In this episode, we dive into Eli's training that allowed him to progress so quickly, which in part, starts with him climbing, essentially, since childhood. But there's more to it...
Resources and links:
Get a peak into the "First Across" of Hal Latte, Eli's highline at 3,290m in the Colorado Rockies. Here he is sending Rambo II (D10-) in Merano, Italy. And this is a photo of his slackline set up of The Seventh Fang 🐍, his ice-to-rock line extending from The Fang, what he calls his small contribution to the historic Vail Amphitheater.
You can connect with Eli on Instagram @gmeliellis or check out some of his impressive highlines on YouTube. Eli does offer coaching as well, DM him for more details.
