Wide Ponies and Offwidths

Offwidths – for most climbers they are a necessary evil, but for a fringe fraction, hard, often inverted offwidth climbing is the main attraction. We talk with offwidth climbers Sam MacIlwaine (instagram.com/adventuresam), associate editor for Climbing Magazine, and Pete Whittaker (instagram.com/petewhittaker01) of Wide Boyz fame to discuss the dark art of fists stacks and wide ponies.
