Why MOBSS ?
For us the answer was quite simple: We began to be afraid!
We will never forget when the first pitons broke under our hands like rotten twigs. Thank God it never happened during a fall! But the uncertainty from one moment to the next was incredible. We don’t wish anyone the feeling of having to abseil down a belay chain when one of the two pitons has rusted through. Fear can paralyse you and for a while we entertained thoughts of simply kicking it in. We were old and sinking thousands of euros into the walls again (now for even more expensive titanium) didn’t seem worth it. But fear can also be strangely motivating! We didn’t want to be deprived of these wonderful playgrounds we had set up for ourselves. AND THAT’S HOW WE CAME UP WITH THE IDEA OF A MOBILE ANCHOR. A bolt that you can check before you place it in a hole, a bolt that holds a climbing fall when properly placed and tightened, and that at the end of the day you then take back home with you. This is how the MOBile Safefty System (MOBSS) was born. And on top of that all climbing with MOBSS is an environmentally friendly sport!
For fellow climbers
Climbing with MOBSS is a hybrid between the usual climbing from bolt to bolt and traditional climbing (TRAD) with clamping wedges and friends. In both cases it offers a safe alternative.
SAFETY : You always know the state of each bolt and unlike in TRAD you have the certainty that the route with its bore-holes has a number of predefined points of protection.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY : Unlike a bolted route which is full of holes filled with metal and often glues or resins a MOBSS route only need bore-holes and a tiny spots with a marker.
For fellow route-makers
Due to its many advantages route-makers will love MOBSS !
EASY & FAST : Perhaps with the exception of belays, no torque spanner, no glue, no metal is needed for the wall. This makes opening a route quick and easy and is only limited by the battery size of your drill.
AFFORDABLE & SUSTAINABLE : Using MOBSS there is no need anymore for sinking lots of money into the walls for using extremely expensive bolts. Bolts that they tell us today will last for decades. But the same thing we were told about stainless steel expansion anchors not even 15 years ago. Today a lot of these routes are not safe for climbing anymore.
