The torrent was alive just a minute ago (5 seeders).

And the link pointing to koodiorja was live when I clicked it just a few secs ago.

Links pointing to turha.kompassi.com might work later this evening...

And try to bear the slow speed. There should enough bandwidth,
but there has been over 1000 downloads past three days... :D

Excuse me, but I think that isn't so bad.

Unfortunately I did waste my pennies to watch Ben Moon whine about some highball  :cry:

"A" did have some great ideas and some good problems in it....they just needed to take more time to condense it down into the best bits...

Some great looking boulders on YABF but I found the music really bland.

Certainly worth a download anyway...

You know the music has to be '"free", so this is what you usually get :)

The YABF2 will have music that is composed especially for the film.

So... Let's hope that the next one is better.

Cheers.

So this video features...

Blatant wire-brushing

Joking about pulling holds off and chipping...

Probably some Bristol Heel action from what I can tell...

And to a soundtrack of finest synth-muzak, a series of obscure bumstarts and fat weak punters getting scared on easy highballs, culminating in the climax of a series of topping-out-mantel-bumshots.

Splendid  :P

But SERIOUSLY, it was worth getting, some good stuff on there and well worth the price of course. Nice problems and quite inspiring at the lower-mid-grades. The Magic Wood section was very good....the problems there have class lines and class looking rock. U Boat and Unnamed slab being particularly inspiring.

And there was a particularly nice example of DFBWGC  :wink:

Yeah.

That fat bastard being me :) Maybe there will be some grit in the
next film so you crazy Brits can make fun of your own routes also ;)

And about the blatant brushing... If you are _making_ a route,
there might be some brushing to uncover the route underneath
the moss and other dirt.  If that's not being the case in England,
lucky you :)

But the feedback is appreciated and went straight to the Man.
