  • Climbing To Bolt Or Not To Be (5.14a) in Smith Rock is like learning over 100 choreographed moves of a difficult dance. Nina Caprez shares her story of working her way up all 40 meters of perfectly smooth, vertical wall.

    Shout-out to Mathieu and Julien, the editing and cinematography was great: playful where it needed to be, yet respectful and focused on the climbing where it counted.

    I don't think I've ever seen a front-flag like that (8:00). Absolutely beautiful technique!

      This is what i call my last chance before falling technique. Not sure if it was necessary or, even, better in this case.

    Great climb; I can see the work and training that went into that climb. OK not all the footage was from your successful accent - but I've never seen a climbing video where that was the case. I liked seeing that you had to work on it; it was outside your comfort zone; but you got there in the end.

    Quelle élégance ! C'est bien plus intéressant à regarder (et à grimper j'imagine) que ces grandes caves déversantes modernes où les mouvements se font par à-coups ! "L'intérêt de la grimpe c'est pas uniquement passer" disait Edlinger.

    A dream line!! with one of the best intros I've seen in a climbing movie. Very unfortunate that there is little (or zero) footage from the actual send. (I'm guessing only the few seconds with the fix line is from the send)

    what's the purpose of the sanding paper at 5:47?

      Sanding off the excess of a callus.

    • @ninacaprez
      @ninacaprez 6 лет назад +9

      While crimping hard in cold temps, the skin on your joints could split off and then you would bleed. To avoid that, you sandpaper off the hard and dead skin at that spot. But anyways, it's a pain in the ass somehow...;-)

    In Germany climbing would be forbidden by the authorities. Probably at the complete rock :-/

    • @jrblackify
      @jrblackify 5 лет назад

      Yeah, looks like swallows nests. If they were endangered, then the park would close the entire area during nesting season most likely.

  • @MrSilencetreatment
    @MrSilencetreatment 4 года назад

    Most scary bit of the route at 7:27. The three wasp hives pointing at your face on the RHS top corner. That is why zero degrees is the best temperature for the route. No way you are climbing there on warm wheather. Jees!!!!!!

  • @jameysellew393
    @jameysellew393 6 лет назад +7

    Two different shoes at 7:32 and at 7:40? Vapor vs from below and vapor laces from above. I understand the necessity of a story line and different angles in order to make it a good film, but just some slightly uncut footage of the actual send would be rad. It feels more like a big company production when the purity of the amazing line is lost. Regardless, sick send!!!

    • @ninacaprez
      @ninacaprez 6 лет назад +35

      The day when it was snowing I sent, I had to give two burns. So on the first try (red pullover) I was wearing a vapor and on my secont burn (also in the red pullover) I had to wear another pair of shoes because you need such a stiff shoe for that route, that after one go you have to change shoe. That was hard to deal with.... So I've been filmed live on my first go where I had two falls (on a static rope) and then on the actual send from the bottom. So we used that two angles to edit the actual send. If you^re not happy with that, so then sorry...

    • @jameysellew393
      @jameysellew393 6 лет назад +10

      I really appreciate the answer! I honestly hadn't thought of that and knowing that the climb was that dependent on little things makes it that much more cool. I'll keep that in mind when watching other climbing videos because that makes it that much more awe inspiring. - Love from the States

    • @Iszil
      @Iszil 6 лет назад +6

      It's a short movie, not video proof of a sent. It's understood (and accepted within the community) that you have to "mount" a film based on different shots and the director's taste. Think of it more like an artistic approach instead of factual.

    • @jrblackify
      @jrblackify 5 лет назад

      @@Iszil I think in general it would be nice to have a statement at the end clarifying this. On all films, not just this one (because almost all films have reenactments, splices from failed attempts, etc). Honnold's Free Solo film is a rare exception.
