Essentially a driving to the crag video, but I think it's in the right spot.

Duma · February 07, 2017, 09:59:13 am

That's what I'm talking about, brilliant!

andy_e · February 07, 2017, 11:55:57 am

Yes, yet another incredible video from Ricky!

Absolute gold! Or oil?

This has got to be one of the hardest nighttime/lantern sends ever.

PipeSmoke · February 11, 2017, 09:29:44 am

Lappnor and the process were both done in the dark, so nah not even close

Big up the no fancy editing massive.

Whistling "Paint it Black" before starting - classy!

(though it might have been whoever's filming I guess)

It's just occurred to me that Paint it Black is basically a steeper version of Bus Stop in the pass.

Danny · February 12, 2017, 08:36:05 pm

Looks like he might've done it without the foot switch thing, which IIRC is supposed to be the crux.

jfdm · February 20, 2017, 10:49:04 pm

Connies looking good in this one.
Maybe that's why the big grades are easy.
Ruby is a climbing machine.

Closer to home, the young guns Havin a ball...
Throw me the chalk... fucking hell...

Indeed. That style on Kintsugi

Some amazing boulders there.
A grade on the FA would have been nice.
I was wondering if Dominator has had another ascent apart from Moon with the original beta.

I really dislike those jump cuts that save my bored eyes from watching 3 seconds of footage that would prove he did the problem. I've got Walter Murch on the phone he hates he too.

Can someone explain why this is done? Webb isn't the only offender.

I'm not talking about dissolving at a rest or speeding a section up whilst someone shakes out etc which of course I understand.

Jim · February 22, 2017, 08:45:26 pm

I just assumed it was a glitch in the matrix to be honest....

I can't believe that was brought up and no one mentioned the 2nd problem being filmed in PORTRAIT!!!!!! the most henious of crimes...

Fred Nicole.

Nibile · February 22, 2017, 10:47:37 pm

Yes, I know about Nicole, but his ascent seems to be surrounded by uncertainty.
The story I know is that he dabbed his spotter on the final move, but never did it again.
Make of that what you will...

strangest thing i've ever watched

Durbs · March 09, 2017, 11:39:56 am

Indeed.

Borderline Non-Quality.

Please let whispered route names be a one-off mistake.
Also, same for random floating dust added in post processing.

Very little (interesting) talk about the routes, just some weird wafflings.
Strange cuts between day/night sessions, which whilst technically clever, were just odd.

Still. Good climbing.

andy popp · March 09, 2017, 11:54:34 am

There's a brief shot from 4.17 inside a slot canyon that I'm sure is in Arizona?

SA Chris · March 09, 2017, 12:37:34 pm

Yup, pretty certain (99%) that's Antelope Canyon near Page, AZ (where the most expensive photo ever sold was taken).

Strange addition. Adds nothing to the video and could achieve similar shots in about a dozen places in and around Cedarberg (third (?) crack in Wolfberg for example, but that would involve an hour's walk).
