  • We travelled to Bishop for this year's athlete summit with The North Face and it was absolutely incredible! This place definitely brought up the boulderer in me, and I was very surprised and satisfied to put a few hard sends in the bag!

    I like how Stefano is showing that also pro climbers are human and that it is better to be wise than brave on a scetchy topout.

    "If I do it, I don't even need crashpads." That pretty much summarises success in bouldering 😄

It was chiseled, named, and sent by Antoine Le Menestrel, who said the movement “opens itself up like a rose petal and offers itself to the gaze of spectators.”

    10:30 - "I decided not to top out because it was too dangerous and for me it was not worth it" - MASSIVE RESPECT for doing/saying that. Far too many climbers (who are also route setters/log boulders) say that "The danger is part of the boulder", and then you see a 5-10m highball...
    Not it's fucking shouldn't... One day someone is going to break a leg or get paralyzed because you decided to put that problem into the topo.

    • @miguelgazquez5717
      @miguelgazquez5717 2 года назад +1

      The danger is part of the boulder. Stefano just decided it was not worth it, maybe because he is primarly a route climber so taking risk for something wich is just a game is not worth it for him. We can all make our decisions about risk.

    Comunque confermo: in USA o sono super paranoici con la sicurezza, oppure si lanciano im queste imprese spericolate senza senso come scalare boulder di 20 metri senza protezioni, praticamente in free solo in cui, a prescindere dalla difficoltà o che uno abbia abbondantemente il grado, cadere significherebbe farsi molto male o peggio.
    A parte Alex Honnold, sembra che il fine ultimo degli Americani, in ogni cosa che fanno, sia di mettersi in mostra davanti agli altri.
