Nice footage of the climbing, all two moves anyway! Spoilt by the bullshit rant but at least its something to laugh at on these rainy days!!

I dunno about it being Bullshit, Dave*.

He says:
Grades are abritary
A problem that you've worked for a while can feel easy when you nail it perfectly
He's not sure how hard Jade is

And he wants to travel and try other hard stuff.  Come to the UK Carlo, there's an easy send for you up in the lakes.

*It's just that he does it in a typical USA fashion

Not sure if this one's been posted before, but I was at this crag recently and found this on the web - looks an amazing problem.

Anyone else having problems with the buffering on the Jade video? I've watched the damn thing in about 15 ten-second clips.  :shrug:

Agree with GCW, that wasn't a bullshit rant, he is absolutely on the money in everything he said. In my opinion.

Amazing skillz, but whoever did the sound on that video needs to be shot, it was out of synch with the footage of him speaking, and the level of background noise was ridiculous £30-40 to hire a decent mic so you can actually hear the guy is worthwhile in my opinion, I heard him speak but I don't want to know what food people are ordering in the background or be bombarded with road noise!

Yeah looks amazing doesn't it!  I'm out in Massachusetts at the moment and been to Farley a few times - what a great crag!  Unfortunately, Speed of Life is waaaay too hard for me, and it looks much higher that it does in the vid when you're stood underneath it!  :o  Did manage to tick some other quality stuff there.  So many class problems and routes on awesome rock.

I didn't know you were that into routes.

Does look amazing but not sure I'd fancy that mantel in the snow.
