Black Diamond athlete Raphael Slawinski is one of Canada’s most accomplished climbers—from ice to rock to mixed funk in the alpine, Raph tackles it all with skill, precision and power. So what makes this Polish-born physics professor tick? Photographer John Dickey spent a weekend with Slawinski, filming him mixed climbing and recording an interview.

This short "inspiration-movie" was edited from the footage, which was filmed randomly during the long trip of Petr and Eva to the northernmost parts of Europe. No script, no story etc... Just the strong northern inspiration, given me by the Northern lights :-)
Cast: EVA SIROTKOVÁ, SAPMI
Music: MARI BOINE, JIŘÍ HÁJEK, AJLOŠ

Ice climbing in the Ghost River Valley in Alberta, Canada. We first climbed a short pillar formed to the left of Hidden Dragon and then hiked up to the Candlestick Maker, a series of two freestanding pillars of ice. This is my first attempt to create a video of any kind, it's a short compilation to show the experience with some helmet camera footage. Feedback welcome!

Here is the 4th episode of our "Sweet Lines" serie.
After bouldering, hilghlining and Dry tooling lines, the Je Ne Sais Quoi climbing team features an Ice Climbing spot.
No frozen ice falls here in Chamonix yet, but we have found a very esthetical 90 feet glacier meal for some pre season ice climbing training. Enjoy !

The Je Ne Sais Quoi filming team presents you this beautifull Hihgline in Les Bauges mountain ranges, french Alps.
Jelena is leading the fine art of rigging a highline on that day and she is successfully sending it...with style.
Julien, as always, is pushing the limits of balance. Thanks to Raph and Guillaume for climbing and rigging.
Seb is having fun filming and slacking as always.
I hope you will enjoy this second Sweet Line of a long serie.

Here is the 5th episode of my "Sweet Lines" serie.
Peter and Guillaume present you a cliff called LE COUTERAY.
Small but interesting overhanging gneiss rock spot. 15 mn driving from Chamonix up the valley
One superbe Off width was first climbed in the 90's by famous american climber Craig Luebben who rated it 5.12 b/c only !
He commented that it was one of the most beautifull Off width he ever climbed and was so dispointed when he came back a few years later and realized locals had bolted it. It is now rated 5.13 b/c....
in this video, Pete climbs a neighbour no named line, rated 5.12b.

■Sweet Line 7: High Line, Médonnet by Julien Millot and Seb Montaz
Here is the 7th episode of my "Sweet Lines" serie.
Julien Millot highlining a new line intalled by Seb Montaz-Rosset in his local favorite bouldering spot of Médonnet near Saint Gervais, french Alps.
A 17 meters interesting line linking two boulders that will be a perfect training spot to improve our slack technique.
I dedicate this edit to our friend Raph Lagrange operated this week and wishing him a quick recovery to ride this line with us in the near future.
