The Traditionalist - Chapter One
Рет қаралды 199,132
4 ай бұрынIn this new 3-part series from acclaimed film-maker Andrea Cossu, we follow Jacopo as he travels from Europe, to America and the UK to gain a deeper understanding of trad-climbing as an art-form, it’s diverse community, culture, ethics and history - exploring what ‘hard-trad’ actually means and whether, when push comes to shove, the grades actually matter.
Chapter 1 | USA
Jacopo’s first stop is Yosemite, California. Jacopo has visited the valley on multiple occasions in the last decade, but usually with his focus on a big-wall objective. This time, he returns with his sights firmly focussed on experiencing the trad culture and history by sampling some of the area’s most iconic classic routes and attempting one of its hardest.

Got to sit and chat with Jacopo for a solid half hour at Acephale in Canmore a couple years ago. Not only is he one of the all time greatest trad climbers, he's also easily one of the kindest, most genuine people in the sport. Fantastic film!

Nothing but respect. They seem like the most humble people you have ever met. I love this stuff. It actually makes me feel better just watching. I only climbed once with an instructor friend and his wife at Joshua Tree. But I fell in love with the feeling, the vibe, the energy. It always feels good to confront our fears. In a smart way. They let me pull protection on the way down. That was very cool, the clickety-clack of the growing protection around your waist. There is saying, you know. 'You meet the nicest people in the mountains.' I have found this to be true in my own life, while hiking in Yosemite. Why do you think that might be?
