    I love it, no cheering, no emotion, he just drops the rope and looks down with a kind of "meh" look on his face, then just walks away. Epically french

    A million years ago Arnaud visited North Wales to climb at Pen Trwyn. I was working “I’ve been a bad, bad boy” 7c+, at Lower Pen Trwyn, so my clips were in. He asked if he could have a go at the route whilst I rested. He’d have looked no less casual and poised than if he’d been walking to get the papers on a Sunday morning. Awesome display of balance, power and smooth movements. It doesn’t look like he’s lost any of that wonderful style. Always a delight to watch him move. Better still at my favourite crate, Ceuse. I never did redpoint that 7c+, bummer.

    What a great piece of climbing not only is this a great and hard climb that you climb well, but more so because in this world of so called amazing new age climbers so many have lost the climbing courage that was required up until the 80s and 90s. When climbing on bolts you have a huge safety net almost as big as top roping but what you have done here is reapply the old ethics of climbing in the modern world a very bold and historic thing that I hope will be copied by more of your generation in the future. Thank you and your team for a great piece of filming and climbing, so many people today will watch and think you are mad for taking the risk but not me, I wish you safe climbing it the future and thanks again for this historic moment.

    • @Sackfullofbadgers
      @Sackfullofbadgers 9 лет назад +7

      Peter Herbert Well for a start he has clearly done it on bolts or top rope more than a few times, how do you think he knows all the placements? And he's worked out how he can drop a rope and get half his gear up to be able to do the climb. As much as I admire him for doing it, how much of a fall do you think that thread is going to take?? It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt as they say, yes it's impressive but I'd rather climb on bolts anywhere but Arapiles.

    Great stuff. I can tell that Petit put a ton of forethought and homework in on this one...the 2 cam "Mid Pitch Anchor" doesn't have a biner on the gear end (tiny chance, could break over the edge in a worst case scenario, totally unthinkable at this commitment level!) but is slung together with what looks like load limiter knots. Folks, don't try this at home...this is elite climbing craft.

  • @implicitllama
    @implicitllama 10 лет назад

    Actually, when he placed two he alternated them. This way, if you fall then you load the highest cam downwards and the one next to it is loaded both upwards (from your rope tension) and downwards (from belayer-side tension).
