Dynamic moves, or ‘Dynos’ are explosive movements where you let go of all points of contact with the wall, using an explosive jumping movement. The first thing you must do when you realise a Dyno is required is to read the situation, i.e. where you are and where you’re heading for.

It gives you the chance to keep your climber safe and secure, while freeing your hands to do something else. The application of which is mostly used outdoors, but knowing more will always help.
