- Recently I took a trip down to South Wales where I was lucky enough to be given a tour of some of the best local spots by a strong crew of psyched climbers. This area isn't really known for its bouldering, but hopefully, this video will help put it on the map and encourage others to check it out!

What an awesome production. Also great seeing Eliot on here, such a fantastic lad with great energy!
Thanks Emil! Keen to have more of Eliot 👌💪
The new standard in climbing related filmmaking. Among the best if not the best going at the moment.
Thanks so much!
amazing work as always sam, thanks for the opportunity and im glad everyone is liking it, dont think people realize how much work goes into these videos and this is a masterclass.
Cheers Dom, was a pleasure 💪
We'll have to do it again sometime!
I don't know what's more consistent and awesome, the climbers and problems or the epic production.
Happy to take either or both! Thanks so much 😁
watch like 10 videos now and hands down this is the best bouldering channel out there. this is A grade stuff
Thanks so much!
Great film - the South Wales Scene is special these days.
Thanks!
And this was Leo having a 'bad' weekend 🤣 haha
Was only bad because you were there mate😘
@@leo_skinner 😢 owch
Great insight to the bouldering at South Wales....And what a strong crew featured.
It made me smile when I heard Dom's story from transition into climbing from boxing as I also coming from a boxing family and boxed since I was 7!! I've always felt like an outcast amongst the climbing community - so I'm pleased to see I'm not the only one.
Cheers Dave, glad you enjoyed 💪💪
Class again wedge. And even better seeing Morgan on the channel. Strong Scenes lads. 💪👌
Cheers Luke!
What a great film. This looks like it's been shot is some exotic islands in the middle of the ocean. Amazing variety and scenery.
Thanks!
Awesome video showing some of the best of South Wales bouldering. Fab place to Boulder with a fab crew.
Thanks!
Started climbing during Covid and now projecting 8As? That's super impressive progression by Dom. Good wibes from the nice people and beautiful scenery! :)
Definitely very impressive 💪
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed
Kind of jealous. Not gonna lie. I started before covid and i cannot even do 7b. But probs to him!
I have never been in South Wales. This video makes me go there and check those places out. Oscar winning production!
Thanks so much!
Hey guys, great video. I think I may have been the first person to seriously boulder at Kenelgarth and Gower, many years back. There was literally nobody else around. I would have loved to go out with some like-minded people but bouldering wasn't that poplar. Great to see the progression there. I live in Australia now but one day I'll come back to tick some of your easy problems.
Thanks! You'll definitely have to come back, lots to do and lots of people to climb with 💪
@@WEDGECLIMBING Is there a guide book for the boulderning spots?
@@scienceofsmile there's a new one that just came out that Eliot wrote. I've linked it in the description of the video 👍
Recently got the South Wales guide book, so this has come at a great time! 💪
Great film guys, very inspiring and beautiful nature. Rock climbers are hippies! Salute from Holland 😊
Thanks!
Amazing video, great to Morgan on camera, what a legend!
Thanks!
amazing work mate!
Cheers pal!
Dom has a very mature mindset for not only his age but his experience in climbing. I get frustrated all the time with my progress (or lack of it) fair play.
Everyone does love choss to be fair
Cheers Ben!
Amazing to see South Wales bouldering in the spotlight! There's an amazing community growing there too. Great video as always.
Thanks!
Another brilliant film from wedge, you really are a wonderful film maker Sam.

Is that THE Morgan Preece from the grit approach!?
Eating custard from the tin?
Bloody hell it is! Didn't recognise him without the terrible hat.
A classic of the genre
@@WEDGECLIMBING I think I saw him sulking under Brad Pitt🤣
Woooo sick vid sam
Thanks!
awesome video! almost makes me want to go to wales!
Thanks! 😅 Do it!
Love the stoke!
Glad you liked it!
Leo makes Dinas not look marbled to fuck! hahaha, awesome vid!
😅 thanks!
sick episode mate
Thanks!
Great vid... As an aside what is with boulder bros and hip hop lol
Thanks! 😅
Really enjoyed the videography and production. Great style and the passion shows.. Curious if there are any 6C/7a's as I've just realized you're down the M4 and I don't have to drive three hours up tut north for a bouldering adventure
Thanks so much! Yeah there's loads of stuff in that grade range. Places like Bacon hole only really start at 7B (and a hard one at that!), but lots of the other crags have a good spread of grades 👍
Guys, the quality of your videos Is on point👌
What's the gear you're using? Blackmagic cameras?
Thanks! I use a Sony A7Siii 👍
@@WEDGECLIMBING really nice camera! Keep It up guys, probably the best bouodering Channel on RUclips! This stuff can easely be on Netflix🔥
@@GiacomoMasciadri thanks so much!
❤️
Nice shoes
ThumbNailed it
😅
As a veteran old fart.... Fantastic job guys
Cheers Chris!
fantastic video!
Would love to know what sort of training to get to (almost) 8A in 2 years
Mostly climbing? Finger strength? Outdoors?
Would listen to an hour of details of everything that man has done ahahah
Thanks! Dom has actually done a couple of 8As prior to this video. There's a podcast episode from Lattice talking all about it 👍
Thankyou very much I appreciate the response! Love the channel, will watch every outdoor video you guys post!!!
@@mattysp2 thanks!
As always great content! are you shooting with blue dominant nd filters?
Thanks! No, that was more of a stylistic choice in colour grading 👍
@@WEDGECLIMBING thanks for your answer! I like your vids both as a climber and a videomaker myself!! Keep up the good work!
@@nopro_films thanks! Will do 😁
how tidal are these crags? wondering if its worth a weekend over from London or would u not have enough time
Limeslade and Ogmore are both pretty tidal, but the others aren't 👍
Fontainebleau stay the best place .)
At 3 A.M. you should be DREAMING about climbing, not actually climbing.
😅
