Does anyone know where I can watch the malcolm smith woodie session from stone love? I don't have a VHS player anymore. Tried to find it. Failed

Didn't that get 8C+ or something when it was first done? Nacho makes it look like that one move 6A at Burbage South. I bet he's just being polite putting 8B+ on the video cos he's a nice chap.

Possibly refined sequence (original 8C+ was for a huge dyno, although there still looks to be some big moves on it).

The sequence of Bernd in the vid looks very similar to what Nacho does (except Nacho's vid isn't through a massive fisheye lens!).

Jaspersharpe · October 16, 2012, 02:39:43 pm

Yeah same holds and same dyno, slightly different sequence up to there but that bit looks 2A. I know Bernd is no punter, he obviously just cocked the grade up on that one.

Nacho is no man. He's a climbing cyborg from the future....

The Sausage · October 16, 2012, 06:40:53 pm

He does seem to make 8b+ look rather easy these days...

Problems included: Flying High V11, Robbing the Tooth Fairy V9, The Law V11, Dragon Slayer V11, King Cobra V10, Biggie Shorty V10, Bosley Traverse V9 and an attempt on Tall Tee V13.

The Japanese seem to be especially deep as a race of climbers. Any videos I've seen of Toru, Yuji and Dai succeeding on long term goals clearly show the emotional connection they have to the climbs and how much the success means to them, especially with TSOTW for Dai. Makes a refreshing change from Americans 'just syyyyyked to crush maaaaaan'.

Does anyone know where I can watch the rest of Stone Love without the aid of a VHS player? I've had Splinter on my hard drive for years, didn't even know it came from Stone Love. I first saw it as an extra on Blood, Sweat & Bagels.
