Tom Randall and Pete Whittaker are no stranger to hard crack climbs...but this one is proving to be their nemesis. Savagely overhanging with precarious jams throughout, the conditions need to be perfect for to climb the route. We go on a journey with them to find out the dedication needed to succeed. When the margins are this small luck needs to be on your side...

Finishing the climb from top to bottom without falling. On trad routes, it also means placing all your own gear as you climb.

Whats with the different shoes at 4:40?
@TomClothier 5 жыл бұрын
Could be that he has one foot bigger than the other so one shoe fits better
@stevewillson9218 5 жыл бұрын
Sometimes the majority of foot jams may be on one foot so they can choose a shoe that is good for jamming and maybe on the other foot they want a softer shoe for smearing etc

Wind helps lower body temperatures when doing hard moves and prevents sweating, dries the skin and helps to dry the wall as well.

All due respect, but At 10:10 he climbs off route for a rest. If he does that on the red point burn, id have to call bullshit. And yes, i know i dont climb as hard, dont do as much for the community, blah blah blah. But bad style is bad style, regardless of the grade
