[@andrewsaphier4283]

Not too many banjo playing climbers coming out of Concord these days. Glad to see some local blood getting at it!!

[@strangeryl]

The main thing to believe and succeed!

[@joaquimg5361]

0:55 I can't believe he jumped over that stick this is sick

[@TheJeffDing]

Definitely a 13b move

[@lawsfromtheslaw5854]

So sick!

[@jamesbarrow1036]

Inspiring.

[@samirchopra1]

Mason has a future in indie film as a laconic drifter.

[@jamescampbell2521]

Great banjo picker ! Not a bad rock climber as well.😜

[@TPAfirestorm]

Man... that looked super painful. Can't imagine using most of those crack holds. Great video!

[@mattanderik]

Belayer was Cruz Mclean

[@Veriditas66]

Music at 2:12 ?

[@tomasvw]

Edgaz by Psychicato

[@Veriditas66]

Yes thanks. But I don't find it on RUclips or Deezer...

[@paulmitchell5349]

The best boulder problems are usually on rope routes.

[@oldguyfun]

Awesome! Love gear routes. But not sure crack climbing is dying.

[@josephyoung7564]

How hard is that Bartlett project?

[@msojones3822]

14d

[@msojones3822]

i think

[@jefferypinley4336]

crack climbing is much harder than face imo, i can follow up 5.10d cracks barely, yet I can lead 5.12 face climbs. Just such an awkward painful style

[@Lampi_tm]

So do it to get used to it

[@Smallfrye]

I actually prefer crack climbing to face. It is very painful sometimes, but it's a cool style.

[@ClimbAndTeach]

This isn't how rating works. What percent of your time do you do crimping/openhand/jamming vs. hand jams in your experience as a climber? If you primarily trained crack climbing, or even a decent percentage, the grades would equal out.

[@NicolasKatochianos]

I am going k2 august wish me luck

[@ripgnar4352]

Nicolas Katochianos how was it??!?!?!

[@spacejesuit]

I think he died...

[@MrKeeper06]

[@Hacky87]

[@ArcherCarrRecording]
