Ice climbing is a sport derived from mountaineering and rock climbing. The climbing technique is called front pointing and is based on four elements: pointing the crampons, continuing with the ice axes, finding the balance position of the body, and finally transferring the body weight. The climber then tackles the wall by alternately planting one of the two wielded ice axes into the ice by driving the front points of the crampons into the ice.
