Liquid Mountaineering is a new sport which is attempting to achieve what man has tried to do for centuries: walk on water. Or to be more precise: running on water.We are developing the sport from scratch. By accident we found out that with the right water repellant equipment you can run across bodies of water, just like a stone skimming the surface. It’s a difficult technique, involving the right water conditions, making use of the surface tension, speed and angle. It’s hard work to even make a few steps, but once you get the hang of it, you actually do get some distance! To run over water is not comparable to anything you are familiar with, like ice or any other surface for that matter. It feels more like running on an invisible carpet that could tear at any moment. When you do actually make a perfect run is just an awesome feeling. We are still pioneering the sport and the techniques to run across water, but we’re pretty sure it could be the next big thing.
