its when a move isnt done staticaly, but dynamicaly. that means that instead of locking off or something you use your momentum to get you to the next hold.

A lot of the time the term is used for "dynoing" or jumping to a hold. They are loads of fun if you enjoy that stuff.

a dyno is when you jump for a hold or make some other move that requires momentum.
there are two outcomes to a dyno, you get the hold or you fall. they can be fun but require total commitment and the belief that you can do it.

Dynos are super fun.. but I really need to work on 'em..

it's so wicked though when you grab onto it and swing through the air! It's like being tarzan, without the vines.. and the jungle... k, I'll can it now.. 8)
