Luke Dawson on King of Thieves 8c+ at Hollywood Bowl

King of Thieves is a stunning route in Hollywood Bowl at Giggleswick North that has not seen many repeats since Jordan Buys first climbed it in 2014. It has a section with tuffas, a traverse under the roof and a total of 8 kneebars.
This footage of Luke's send combines two camera angles: one from the ground and another from a second camera attached to a tree.
Music: Articulation by Rival Consoles.

Amazing video capturing the tremendous strength, patience and focus- both from climbing and filming. Wicked cool. The screen pullout was cool capturing the topout was good finish. Way to go Luke & Marsha. 🤘

@@monoculturefilms5868 *queue imposter syndrome* 😂 I mean I'd be absolutely honoured! ❤️ But I really don't climb all that hard 😬 But I'd be hella down!

Bit of a classic.

It needs more ascents! What a route!
