Footwork be damned. The Beastmaker International Footless Festival celebrates pure, raw strength. Held at Sheffield’s Climbing Works, competitions include campus-only climbing, a compression challenge on a hanging refrigerator, and a deadhang contest on a progressively tilting edge. Only the very, very, very strong survive.
