Clipstick a forgotten beginner safety device

Clipstick is a safety device that normally used for pre-clipping the first bolt. Jonathan Siegrist video shows have this can be done just using a stick also including how to clip the rope into a hanging quick draw. On the market there are several more advanced clipsticks which makes it possible also to take out the quick draws from the bolts, brush or even install a camera on top. In practice, clipstick know-how is possible the most important skill for any gym climber wanting to try outdoors, often with the first bolts high or far apart. Further more, it can be used to more safe put the rope in the anchor from above, without having to lean out 20 meters of the ground, or to set up another top-rope from a neighboring route. It just might be a nice investment for every gym and clubs to buy some clipsticks and let climbers test them out possibly also by setting up a course also talking about run-outs and ground falls etc. We plan to follow up with some reviews.
