Redpointing a sport climb isn't always about cutting weight, but dropping a few ounces from your gear can certainly make it easier. Once you've worked the moves into submission, grab your 8.9mm rope, the lightest harness you own, and the SCARPA Furia Air for an ultralight set up that will get you to the top, and if it doesn't, at least you'll know it wasn't because your shoes were too heavy. Coming in at just 10 ounces for the pair, the Furia Air is a lean, mean, climbing machine with an aggressive downturn built to take on the monster routes of places like Flatanger and Clark Mountain. The single hook and loop strap locks your foot into place for over-the-head heel hooks, and the Vibram XS Grip 2 rubber is soft enough to conform to the rock without losing edging power. With a perforated design, this climbing shoe has everything you need to stay cool on the send burn whether you're bouldering, route climbing, or just proving to your housemates that you can toe hook anything, using the kitchen counter as an example.
