Ah cool (assuming that's a photo of the camera mounted on the drome, not your new Anal Intruder).

It would quite a immersive experience if it was the latter...

Cheers slackers. It was tentatively on the list for September, now it's firmly on the "must visit" list :-)

Nice film, the technology is getting there.

The Needles are a must-visit world-class venue. That part of the Sierras has a fantastic atmosphere. I've only had 3 days there (bafflingly brief) and didn't do a less than excellent route. Soloing the long 5.8 that goes up the spine of The Magician counts as some of the most fun I've had climbing.

That looks like two separate trips. Enough to do round Sierras for a month plus, enough to do in Colorado for a month plus. And a lot of driving in between (Ibex would be a great place to break the journey for a day or so though!)

Even better, Notch Peak (turn off opposite Ibex).

Land in Denver, Fly out of San Francisco innit! 

Ibex & Notch Peak upgraded to "Tentative".  Just checked and it seems Ibex could be a bit scorchio in mid September (which is also why we'll probably skip Red Rocks & Indian creek this time)

Walking down that Mount Rebei gorge is a great rest day activity for anyone in the area. Earlier this year we watched three incompetents struggle to haul/aid/jumar up the first pitch. We speculated for a while they must be some bumblies until we were told who it actually was when we bumped into a camera woman on the way out!

Was climbing with Zaff once and he didn't have a harness so used a couple of slings, this is probably safer albeit a little more complex...

The Sharma route is really totally different in style from the other routes in Montrebei. Even the least adventurous routes have funky gear placements and sometimes quite marginal fixed gear. I can understand why some locals are pissed off.

I only see the trailers on vimeo ( using my phone). Does the whole thing play when it's imbedded?

The "trailer" when you view this page from where you can buy Progression is 1h20min of the Extras from the DVD.

It plays on the web-page fine (just checked from a desktop browser).  I've not tried embedding it (couldn't actually work out how to).  You can use this to download it.

Charlie Woodburn climbing Central Buttress, Scafell, and musing on the first ascent. CB was an early example of red-pointing, trained for with intensive bouldering, worked over a two year period including abseil inspection, top-rope practice of sections, and beta memorised by drawing the crux moves.  A timely film given Herford's death 100 years ago this year.

The story of Ethan on Jumbo Love really resonates with me, and this video does a great job of presenting that story.

For my double century of posts on ukb!
Not seen this one before, must have slipped through the net.
The big man, crusing and crushing the big lines.
