Zanskar Odyssey

Zanskar Odyssey from CryptoChild on Vimeo.

This fall, Colorado climbers Pete Takeda, Abbey Smith, Jason Kehl and Mick Follari journey to that lofty crossroads where continents meet, ancient cultures mingle, and great religions clash — the kingdom of Zanskar in the Indian Himalayas. They're looking for adventure, a fresh perspective, and the most aesthetic boulders in the world's greatest mountain range. It's a postmodern blend of traditional expedition climbing and new school bouldering --it's a search for the highest hardest climbing moves in the world.

One really really cold, windy day at Wolverine Land in Colorado. One of the last days of the season. 9 days left!!!

Boulders:

Climbers:

Nalle Hukkataival and Jon Cardwell

■Daniel Woods - The Exfoliator V14

Daniel Woods - The Exfoliator V14 from Kyle Berkompas on Vimeo.

Lincoln Lake aka "Wolvorine Land" exploded this past summer with first ascents. Daniel Woods, Dave Graham, Jon Cardwell, and others have been putting up ultra hard boulder problems for the past couple months. This high altitude bouldering mecca located on Mt. Evans is now home to over 11 different V13 and harder problems including this one, The Exfoliator V14. After two to three days of work and hours of "exfoliating", Daniel made the first ascent of this problem with Dave Graham in a close second.

250km north of the artic circle we find good friction, midnight sun and mosquitoes.

Gaisenjarga is a relatively unexplored bouldering area north of Kiruna in Sweden with 500 problems set up but with a potential far beyond that.

I've been using the Kessler Pocket Dolly quite a bit lately, and have fallen in love with the beautiful shots that it facilitates!!! Kessler has some of the coolest toys going for low budget indie filmmaker http://kesslercrane.com/

ちなみにこのエントリーがこのブログの７００エントリー目。ちゃんと数えたことはないけど、１エントリー当たり平均２つ動画があるとすると、これまでに1,400本くらいのクライミング動画を紹介したことになる。クライミング動画をコンスタントに作って公開している人が世界に200人いるとして、その人達が一人につき平均月１本動画を公開したとすれば、200×12で年間2,400本の動画が公開されていることになるわけで、それが５年くらい続いていれば、世の中には累計で12,000本くらいはそういう動画があることになる。もちろん単発でアップしている人やアップする頻度の少ない人も1,000人どころではなくいるはずなので、世の中のクライミング動画の総数はさらに多い。と、考えると、このブログで紹介している動画はそのごく一部でしかないのですな。

クリス・シャーマ、ヨガに挑戦：Chris Sharma Does Wanderlust

■Chris Sharma Does Wanderlust

Chris Sharma Does Wanderlust from Prana Living on Vimeo.

What happens when one of the worlds greatest climbers dives head first into yoga, music and nature at Wanderlust...

Chris Sharma is widely considered the best climber in the world and has been part of the prAna family for the vast majority of his career. Chris’s meteoric climbing career started when he won the Bouldering Nationals at age 14 and opened the hardest climb in America (at the time, 5.14c) a year later. In the decade that followed, he has continued to take climbing to a new level. Not only has he consistently shattered previous conceptions of difficulty, he was recently voted 8a Climber of the Decade. He has sent multiple 5.15 routes, bouldered V15, onsighted 5.14b, and established deep water solo routes at the highest grades. Chris holds claim to the current hardest route in America, and perhaps the world, with his ascent of Jumbo Love at Clark Mountain in California. For the latest on Chris, visit him at prAna.com.

“over the past half year myself and Jordan Shipman, of Louder Than 11, have been working really hard on this amputee climbing video. I have met so many climbers in my travels that self defeat themselves on problems before they even pull off the ground. My goal was to create an inspirational piece for both climbers and persons with disabilities alike. You do not realize your full potential until you take all of your excuses and throw them out the window. We have gotten tons of positive feedback from the video and it has been a big hit.
The film is shot in Horse Pens, Al and Little Rock City, Tn on some of the beautiful sandstone boulders in the area.”

Trotter wrote the following about this final video: "This last clip is hilarious. After 10 hours of driving back to the border, and three hours waiting to cross, the best (WORST) part of our trip came right at the end, when the front right wheel of Andrew Burr’s Toyota truck fell off on the Freeway going 70 miles per hour. It was either the rough Mexi roads, or some kids tried to steal his tires... Either way we stuck the crash landing and got towed to a mechanic in Tucson, Arizona. Yay!"

Emotional Landscapes in the Maltatal, Austria

■Emotional Landscapes

Another clip celebrating its tenths anniversary this year. Klem Loskot going through EMOTIONAL LANDSCAPES in Austria's Maltatal on the boulder problem by the same name in 2000. Finally, on November 10, 2002 Klem climbed EL.
He had been trying this beautiful line for more than 3 years now, already sticking the difficult dyno that long ago, but always messing it up afterwards. The same thing happened this time once again, before he floated (Klem's words) through the problem with hardly any skin left on his third day climbing. EMOTIONAL LANDSCAPES is featured in udini's video CLIMBING AT THE LIMIT OF HUMAN PERFORMANCE if you want to take a look...

2 years later Martin Moser realized the first (and still only?) repetition of EMOTIONAL LANDSCAPES with a different sequence. Their discussion below (in German) shows how vague the rating of boulder problems is. 

Martin Moser schreibt:
"Emotional landscapes gilt für alle in der boulderszene als fast schon ein Mythos. Das war und ist es auch für mich. alle haben wir die Videos auf udini.com gesehen, studiert. Mit offenem mund schaue ich, mit welcher Leichtigkeit du (the power of) good bye ziehst.

Ich komme mir deshalb schon fast ein bisschen unverschämt vor, eine wiederholung von landscape zu behaupten. Ich weiß nicht, ob du schlußendlich bei deinem durchstieg genau so getan hast wie auf den videos zu sehen ist. Ich kann mit dieser lösung gar nichts anfangen und kann ab der leiste weg keinen zug so klettern wie du sie gezogen hast."

[Problem] PANAROMA (8c)

Barely a month after their ascent of SOLO PER VECCHI GUERRIERI 8c/150 m, the Pou brothers completed the second objective of their summer project, PANAROMA 8c/500 m, considered the most difficult route in the Alps’ mountain chain. PANAROMA bears the unmistakable stamp of Alex Huber: a difficult route over “rotten” rock with dubious safe holds, and a highly futuristic layout that crosses the largest climbed roof in the world. In this first video an abstract of their chat with Alex about the mountaineering areas of Tre Cime di Lavaredo and the Panaroma route in particular.
