We wanted to go ice climbing in December. But unfortunately there wasn't enough ice in Tyrol. Our Zillertal mountain guide recommended Flo to us because the conditions in Val Gardena were better. Since we already had previous experience and arrived a few days in advance, Flo was able to give us lots of good tips for standing lines. The quick communication via WhatsApp was really great. The day with him was really fun. He took our different climbing preferences and levels into account. So it was perfect. We climbed the Sword of Damocles. Great line. And ended the day with some dry tooling. Flo is a top ice climber and we just had fun and a good time on a human level. We'd love to come back soon
