English term

missed climbing

English to Spanish Other Sports / Fitness / Recreation Extreme sports
Hi, everyone!

I'm translating the limitations and exclusions section of an insurance coverage. Included in a list of extreme sports is "missed climbing".
"... kite surfing, kiteboarding, luging, missed climbing, mountain biking, ..."

I'm not really sure what type of climbing this is referring to.

Any help will be highly appreciated!
Laura

Still a typo Just a common one.
Laura Ramos (asker) Aug 30, 2017:
Thank you for your replies. I don't think it's a typo. I've found that term used by a different insurance carrier.
Mónica Hanlan Aug 30, 2017:
I'm with Denise I can't find anything about it other than in flying references and it does not go with the context. Good luck!
Leda Roche Aug 30, 2017:
Typo: mixed I think it is a typo. Mixed climbing is a combination of ice climbing and rock climbing generally using ice climbing equipment such as crampons and ice tools

escalada mixta - - escalada "missa" - "eXcalada miSS(t)a"

Creo que ya te han dado buenas respuestas en la "discussion"..., yo te doy esta como respuesta... en caso de que quieras "duplicar" el error tipográfico-fonético, para lograr un efecto hilarante... (sin necesidad de gases... ni de...)

Saludos cordiales.

Yes, as noted by Patinba, it is a very common one. So much so, that eventually it could become the standard (?) (I doubt it, but languages get corrupted and change...)
Note from asker:
Well, so it's just a typo. Weird it's on several insurance policies apart from the one I translated. Thank you for the link!
