normal chalk for climbing, is mixed with alcohol to form a paste and then filled into a bottle for dispensing. That’s why I always mix my Liquid Chalk at home with a very simple recipe to make your own Liquid Chalk. The problem is that Liquid Chalk is quite expensive*. When I apply Liquid Chalk to my hands before an attempt, it often happens that I don’t have to reapply any chalk at all after that. That’s why I find Liquid Chalk so practical because it allows you to apply a really good base coat before climbing and the alcohol dries out your hands even more.
Especially when it gets warm I sometimes can’t keep up with the dry chalk or I don’t want to reach into the bag all the time and waste my strength.
I have very wet hands by nature and therefore I need a good layer of chalk (= magnesium carbonate) on my hands before climbing.
