Skipping the Climbing wall tutorial. Don't know if this is known or not, I don't know anything about this game or its skips etc.

Points of interest:
1. The airwalk is done by restarting at a point where you're checkpointed while hanging on to a ledge. During the loading screen, you can give Lara input to let go the ledge before the game is loaded, if done correctly the game will load Lara in her 'ground state', but while in mid-air. The game then lets you do ground moves in air, like run, dodge, jump etc. Allowing airwalks.

2. This is the only ledge I've tried it at, but so far it doesn't seem to work when checkpointed at grapple walls. I've only played this intro part of the game so far, so don't know how common this may be.

3. Not in vid, the reason I took the route that I did is because the trigger that makes Lara fall remains active even though Lara had already triggered it an falling. So activating it a second time causes the falling-animation to take place a second time (you then get some odd camera glitches.

Also, the guy that's with Lara can sometimes fall down with her if this trigger is activated a second time. I guess because he's now in a different position from when you activated the trigger the first time.

EDIT: Perhaps this airwalk spot can be used to skip things a bit further ahead in this level, but I don't know the game well enough at this stage.
