A selection of the content available on Instagram.A handful of respondents noted their usage of Instagram as a method of visual instruction and entertainment. Instagram provides no shortage of content, from updates at a local gym to professional brand-sponsored climbers to cute comics to local climbers sending their projects. Its open posting platform allows for endless source material, as well as allows the user to sort for their preferred content with relative ease. Coupled with the lack of mass-marketed climbing movies, DVDs, and other paid visual media, Instagram fills a media gap for all levels of experience. Unlike YouTube, 8a.nu, or professional livestreams, Instagram is a commonly accessed platform for the general public, marking it as an adaptation of necessity and accessibility. New climbers may be inclined to turn to the familiar platform to seek out content, whereas experienced climbers may be inclined to turn towards the far-reaching audience of the platform.
