Great episode! Being an American, I've always wanted to travel and climb on the gritstone, but at 51 years old, my best climbing/bouldering days are well behind me. That close up texture shot at 1:08 keeps the fire alive.
Great stuff. Jim looked like he had head room on The Boss. Not sure about his timing tho. If he had set bloodhound at 8:41 it would have been an iconic shot. Great video.
@@biltongandboba the new beta is to go straight to the good hold rather than using the undercut. It's possible this wouldn't have worked for Jim as he's a bit smaller than the others. He thought initially that it could be more like 8B.
Jim initially thought it might be harder, but it's since been repeated by a couple of people who have used a different sequence and proposed 8A. Jim's sequence is most definitely harder than 8A 💪
Jim is modern day wad but shimmers with old school mentality and approach. Beautifully shot video
Old meets new 💪
Thanks!
Wow The Boss + Bloodhound in particular were so gorgeous. well done.
Thanks!

Thanks! It's still worth a trip whatever grade you're climbing 👍 Although don't expect good weather 😅
Loved the Bloodhound problem. Such a future classic. Definition of ”bouldery” !
Definitely! Doesn't get more bouldery than three nails moves on a steep wall
Amazing footage and editing as per usual, plus some of Jim's poetic musings....
Thanks! He does have a way with words...
These are almost becoming classy 👏 👌
This channel is so great man, it captures some essence of climbing that other channels miss.
Thanks! Glad you like the vibe 😁
Just saw this "old" video! So so inspiring! Great work with the channel guys, keep going!
Thanks!
This films get me so psyched! Keep up the inspiration!
Glad you like them. Will do!
More cracking content. Love the style of the vids, recognized it immediately when I watched World Class a while back on the lattice channel.
Thanks! Glad you like the style. Hopefully will be able to bring out some more projects like 'Worldclass' in the future...

Thanks! He definitely had more in the tank.

4:44 British Slashface! 💥
Crikey!! 👏🏻
big ups
The Boss is like Captain Hook’s big scary brother
Fucking brilliant.
That youth has had a pretty decent season…..
It was barely even a season 😅 more like two months 💪
@@WEDGECLIMBING Beast mode.
Still plenty of projects left on Derbyshire grit. That Stanage roof project awaits....
There definitely is. I'll have to get the Pope on that sometime
@@WEDGECLIMBING Me and J D were very close to top roping that 20 years ago.
He is not the Pope he is a very naughty boy.
Noice!
Thanks!
Only 8A? 😅
It's since been repeated with easier beta at around 8A. Safe to say Jim's beta wasn't that grade 😅
@@WEDGECLIMBING ah that makes more sense. What's the easier beta and what did Jim reckon his beta gave it grade wise?
@@biltongandboba the new beta is to go straight to the good hold rather than using the undercut. It's possible this wouldn't have worked for Jim as he's a bit smaller than the others. He thought initially that it could be more like 8B.

@@biltongandboba no worries 💪
Bloodhound looks quite difficult for a 8A...
Jim initially thought it might be harder, but it's since been repeated by a couple of people who have used a different sequence and proposed 8A. Jim's sequence is most definitely harder than 8A 💪
