    The point about the gear being pre-placed is not one of semantics. It is certainly harder to do the route placing gear than only needing to clip it. The way I've heard of distinguishing between the two types of ascents is red point for placing gear and pink point for having it pre-placed. The most impressive lead is the on-sight, of course.

      I know this is an old comment, but you’re 100% right. He looked like he was climbing on an extremely rare day in Scotland. Normally, on rare days like those, the children run out of their homes and gaze in wonder at the white glowing orb in the sky, knowing fine well that they’ll have a story to tell their grandchildren in the future. “I once saw the sun”.

    Hi TheDuff1000000, 'Committed' is not just about trad climbing, Committed Vol II features some bouldering, sport and winter climbing. Also I think a route is still considered a Trad route even if the gear is pre-placed. I'm glad you enjoyed the clip. Diff

  • @alfonz1986

    Its unfortunate but Steve didn't actually climb Rhapsody. He unwittingly went off-route on the final move (the one Dave took the massive falls from) making it a far easier climb. Dave MacLeod acknowledged this in his blog.

    Thank for the answer.
    Actually, we have a different way to thinking trad. But the way we name it doesn't change the thing in itself. Also, I think that, on youtube and vimeo at least, there's not enough vids about trad climbing (any kind of ;). The English climbers have a strong and beautiful trad cllimbing tradition, so keep doing those movies, this sport is underrepresented.

    @theultimateshoe It's certainly ethically shaky, but preplaced or not it certainly gets spread out. I agree this approach seems weird. Should probably really stick with nails sport routes or fully embrace the ins and outs of trad. But who am I to question? Mclure and Macleod? I know that Steve Mclure certainly has voiced reservations about such a style at any rate and more importantly credit too them for continuing to push things forward!

  • @TheDuff1000000
    @TheDuff1000000 13 лет назад

    I thought Committed was about trad climbing, but this is not, with all my respect for the climber, proper trad climbing. Trad climbing is when you protect the route while you climb. The way I do it, it's more like sport climbing. Placing the gear bring you to an other difficulty level.
    Nevertheless, I loved this movie.

      The wall is over hanging he was giving a soft catch to reduce the force put through the gear to stop it from ripping and stopping Steve from breaking his ankle by slamming into the wall like Dave did

  • @Mike-oz4cv
    @Mike-oz4cv 6 лет назад +1

    The belayer seems to be doing an extremely poor job. At one point he’s letting go with both hands, and at several points you can see him with his hands wrapped around the belay device (a great way to get your fingers caught in the device).

    • @aarongibson6947

      The people that film these climbs are rarely well versed on climbing/belaying procedure. When the clips are edited together, they are made to look seamless and in real time. However, he might cut from a shot of Steve run out 20ft above his last piece, to a shot of Sonnie belaying when Steve hadn't even clipped his first piece yet.
