On the water
Climbing sea cliffs without a rope, with deep water as the landing.
Deep water soloing, or psicobloc, means climbing sea cliffs without ropes, using deep water below as the only protection. It needs checked depths, calm seas and good falling technique, and is usually done in groups who can help from the water.
