Good vid! That would be a cheeky whipper at the end if he didn't get to the saving grace jug!

What a beautiful looking route.

[Jaspersharpe]

Amazing.

Never been to the States, always plan to do the Yosemite pilgrimage yet watching that and the Sharma section in Players I found the thought of just going to the Gorge instead creeping into my head, what a stunning place, crag, rock an all. Dunno what it is about sandstone, especially the red stuff....maybe it's my Wirral roots?

[boulderingbacon]

that route looks wicked. the lad doing it seemed like he was struggling from the start but fair play to him he kept it going on what look like ridiculously hard crimps. great effort

maybe it's my Wirral roots?

I can see the similarities

That band of bubbles right of Flake Crack was exactly I was put in mind of, funnily enough.

I was at the crag power-screaming my way up one of the much easier adjacent routes when that vid was filmed - just one of many amazing crags at the Red.  For anyone considering a trip, it's definitely worth it!  So much rock with so many stunning lines. 

Having spent a bit of time on the East Coast this year, I've been to a few of the better climbing areas over this side, and I'm amazed places like the Red aren't more popular.  A lifetime's worth of climbing spread over a huge area.  Still a huge amount of untouched buttresses too....so plenty of scope for future development.

Hmmmm, Flake Crack IS a better line...

[Jaspersharpe]

A fact which should put the whole "line v quality of climbing" argument to bed once and for all.   

[Fiend]

Yup as it shows you can have both

Just stumbled across SHEFFIELD CLIMBERS (1946-1949) on Yorkshire Film Archive Online 

[Doylo]

Flake crack is amazing!

Thanks slackers, this is a real gem.  In light of recent events at Millstone, look at the wear on footholds used by Tricouni'ed boots (eg 4'13"-5'20"). Those white patches are not chalk! 

[chummer]

That was awesome slackers, a great find.

[slackline]

A bit more up-to-date than the last video I linked

[Ethan]

[Adam Lincoln]

Bit of bouldering also. Some extended footage from the Mammut team trip.

[GCW]

Oddly enough, I watched that earlier after seeing it on 8a.nob.  I didn't post it because it left me a bit cold, not sure why.   Whilst the Mammut tick mark gang obviously had some fun, the video just didn't seem to inspire me at all.

I kept expecting Westlife to appear on top of the Parthian block.

Agree, proves good film making has more to it than 'clever' camera angles and slow motion. Oh, and Johnny's narrative doesn't relate to the footage either.
