    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.

    Bloodhound looks quite difficult for a 8A...

    • @WEDGECLIMBING
      @WEDGECLIMBING  3 года назад +4

      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 💪

  • @crescentfuze

    • @WEDGECLIMBING
      @WEDGECLIMBING  3 года назад +1

      It's since been repeated with easier beta at around 8A. Safe to say Jim's beta wasn't that grade 😅

      @@crescentfuze 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.
