CASH Climb is a beautiful and intricate climb that has a lot of possibilities for expression and variation. Our friend Rain Anya from Paper Doll Militia is known as the founder of this climb, that has since become incredibly popular for good reason. We break this climb down into many progressions and steps when we teach it, and this video covers those breakdowns. This video also covers two different options to use to finish each step of the climb.
CASH is an acronym that stands for the actions you do to climb. Crochet, Around, Sit up, Hip key (or thigh Hitch). We like to teach the actions by themselves first before combining them, to avoid difficulties and common mistakes and also to give students room to explore each step. We typically teach this climb in intermediate level once students are confident with their straddle ups from the air, hip key, thigh hitches, and are ready to challenge their fabric brain.
