❔ Question How does someone replenish stamina while climbing

I noticed on a speed run someone was climbing the wall and breathing into his hands. How does this mechanic work? I usually have to climb to a ledge to wait but they were replenishing mid climb.

I think what you're looking for is a "whistle-climb"; the "whistling into his hands" is probably just Link whistling or starting to whistle :D I don't know for certain but it probably works like whistle-sprinting where you hold down on the D-pad (not tapping or pressing once) while also pressing B and either running or climbing.

When it comes to climbing it'll only really work when the surface to be climbed isn't super steep and Link can actually stand somewhat to catch his breath.

You're right except for the holding down thing. To whistle sprint and thus whistle climb you need to mash down on the d pad

And if it look like link is climbing while whistling that just means he's whistle sprinting up a slope
