Top Rope Rock Climbing as an AMPUTEE

Hello! My name is Annika Hutsler and I electively amputated my leg on April 02, 2019. My vlog is a video journal of my day to day life from my first steps to trying and retrying sports for the first time as an amputee. I appreciate any and all feedback. I am here, first and foremost, to update my friends and family on my life, but I also love the idea of inspiring others. In this video, I went rock climbing at Vertical Hold Climbing Gym in San Marcos, CA. I used not only the typical belay method of using a partner and a Gri-Gri, but I also used the self-belay system. I also got a new pair of climbing shoes and I am STOKED about that! MUSIC – YouTube Audio Library – 1973 by Bruno E. https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/...
