Megatron Project Update! | Channel News & More!
As spring in Colorado is starting to come into full swing, I wanted to share a bit of an update about my efforts trying Megatron this season.
Let's just say this: it ALMOST happened.
Also stay tuned for a bonus uncut clip from last spring that we've been sitting on.
***We know the audio kinda sucks, ALTON'S mics kinda suck. He is fixing this.**
Do you enjoy this type of content? Should we make more short videos and updates like this? What else do you guys want to see as we ramp up our channel production?
!!PLEASE SUBSCRIBE - WE WILL BE HAVING GIVEAWAYS IN THE COMING WEEKS!!
As always, thank you all for the support.

The Uncut send of Distortion, V16. The last of the "big rigs" in the Wolvo Cave at Lincoln Lake. Distortion takes the same start as Wheel of Wolvo, but after the mid, you finish on a Griffin Whiteside V12 called Spatial Awareness. Video by: @AltonRichardsonStudios

A mini AM/PM Episode! In Ep6, we reflect back on some aspects of the process on the Wheel of Wolvo (V15) and fast forward to June of this summer (2023) when I finally sent The Wheel on my first go of the day. Enjoy!

AM PM | Summer Alpine Bouldering | Ep 05 - Ice Knife Sit Second Ascent
Просмотров 35 тыс.11 месяцев назад
After sending Distortion, it was time to refocus my attention on The Ice Knife Sit Start. Temps in the high alpine had begun to drop, bringing ideal conditions to Guanella Pass. After 17 days, several split tips, a few major beta refinements and one massive punt at the lip, it came together on the night of October 5th, 2022 with a first go send of The Ice Knife Sit for it's second ascent. Guane...

As the summer season began to roll past its peak and slip into the start of fall, I focused in to work on the big link-ups in the Wolvo Cave. Ultimately after several agonizingly weeks filled close goes and epic punts, I established Distortion, V16. the caves second of the grade and possibly harder then Insomniac, V16. Lincoln Lake, Mt.

In Episode 3 of AM/PM, I settle in to work on the two link-ups left in the Wolvo cave, Wheel and Spatial exit from the Wheel start. Only to repeat the same; falling on the very last moves of Wheel and battling links on the Spatial exit. In order to get out of the cave and switch up the pace I started working Warrior Up! V14 after the cave sessions, ultimately sending this on the my second day o...

Episode two brings the onset of summer and a push to higher elevation climbing areas for cooler temps. Kicking off the true beginning to the alpine season, I managed to repeat Delirium, V15 pretty quickly after getting refamiliarized with it then settling back in to work on the classic, Wheel of Wolvo, V15. After an incredibly close go on Wheel, I decided to try an un-repeated boulder from Grif...

Episode 01 of my 2022 Summer Alpine Series. This is a very open and candid look into my process of projecting and repeating the famed Dave Graham boulder, The Ice Knife, V15. It took me 12 days of effort in the Spring of 2022 to take this one down.

Did it the OG way, not tall enough to reach the toe hook and knock off a number grade or two haha. Absolutely stoked, I couldn’t ever even do the first move last season and it felt very controlled this time

I let Reddit choose the name, thanks to u/schoj for the winning name!
Amazing dude. I'm a Europe based climber with exactly your dimensions --- I'm curious which classics you'd be going for when going on a trip to Font or Switzerland!
Isn’t the a commonish beta where you do another two handed dyno?
ruling on the field stands: start was in fact legitimate, NOT French. feet left the ground, slight pause before hand left the start holds. first down
I’m so confused isn’t this wheel of Volvo? Am I missing something because it looks like the exact same boulder
he said “what’s your name” so underrated, shredder
get a closeup of the holds! bet they're miniscule
Sick sick siiiick
You’re a beast drew! Nice job keeping focused on school through it all.
Rooting hard for you to send one day!
I liked the video. You were doing awesome on Megatron 👍
You are my biggest climbing inspiration. So good. Thank you
agreed that Fun should always come first! selfishly, im psyched to see you in such a long, involved project process. i really struggle with the long term project mindset, and seeing you manage it, especially detail of how you do that, is very helpful for me simulator in your home gym? get 9a+ strong for it, so you're stronger than you need to be? then when you send you can go put up the hardest boulder in the world. what are you studying in school? school was really important to me, and ive always balanced that with climbing, and my quality of life is really good as a result. would love to hear more about your studies
That last boulder looked sick!
Get it drew! Just do what feels best to you man! It'll come together I am sure
I'm glad you're prioritizing enjoyment with climbing. I'd rather watch you do your thing without to much weighing you down. Thanks for all the great content.
You'll get it and it will be great when you do :) Freedom!
Spotting with the j in the mouth 😂 love to see everybody stayin safe
Man I absolutely believe that you can make it!
Sneaky board video surely
Physical attributes deteriorate. Strength in knowledge is there till you die 💪💪 Stay up!
Super nice content!
Hey man! I’m sure you’ve looked into it, but sounds to me like a sport psychologist could change your life. I know there are some climbing specific ones in Denver and Boulder as well. Love watching you have fun out there!
Great video and really nice to see an update from you! All the best with finishing school... and whenever the timing is right, I look forward to seeing you continue projecting Megatron 👍🏻👍🏻
track ids?
3:14 👊👊👊👊
Dude. I laughed so hard at the very end of the video! 🤣
You got this Drew. It ain’t easy and it wasn’t meant to be easy but you’re killing it 💪🏽
Loved your reaction when you dropped off at 3:10, just pure psych. Keep it up dude!
You’r my favorite athlete Drew, keep that insanely chill energy
Audio sounds good with AirPods! Mfs tweaking!,
commenting for the algo
come on, come on, come on dude, come on, come on, come on buddy, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Average boulder bro vocabulary
Hey man do you have any stoke for Hypnotized Minds?
Shoutout Chad Greedy with the sick spot at the end !
Grime and Drum n Bass, such british taste in music, sweet!
great video. Looking forward to more. Would love to see a video of a casual indoor session.
1:32 faxs
Absolutely insane to this. Love these videos and all the hard work you put into the sport <3
Audio is fucked on my end getting only fuzz at 1:32
You’ve worked harder on this than I did on my undergraduate degree. LFG!
@2:25 Drew def couldn't have done all those moves without the nonstop 'come awwn's & 'core up' beta from Lazy Eye Mcgee, who legend has it, studied at Mellow's prestigious Hypemaster School, to get up to date on the latest climber bro vernacular. His skill on full display here with some of the latest of Mellow's coined terms such as the highly-effective "tension", the ever-broey "tighttighttight" and lest we forget, the grandaddy of all: "everything you got", spoken with gritted teeth grunts. Combining all together and with Tourettes-like repetition, ensures climbers will top that sick bloc out, scream "let's fucking go", then sit and stare at their fingers.
Why are people always so snarky about climbers egging each other on. I am a climber and I have found in 100% of cases it helps me (at least). I never have understood why it’s such a sticking point for some people…
Yewww Drew! So stoked to see this mate! When’s the next Climb Harder AMA coming up? 😉
Keep going man strong stuff!
Would love to see your session on a spray wall
You got this Drew. Finish your School, we understand how stressful school can be and how heavy that can weigh down your mental toughness. We got your back! Do you what you said you'd do and focus on climbing things you enjoy. Keep being you! I think you're my favorite pro climber..
Climbing community believes in you, amazing work regardless of the outcome! ❤
Would be cool to see an update on send colorado; how may are left, maybe talk about the best problems you've done on the way, etc
stay doing you man
Everyones rooting for your success! both on megatron and in school
Climbing is only worth it if you enjoy it, excited to hear what wild things you do in the future (and congratulations on school -- it can be exhausting but it's worthwhile)
