amazing looking routes!
But, is it just me, or does anyone else find the short burst editing on the Chiliam Balam part of the film incredibly irritating? Short crucial points of the climbing are missed out – what about the huge horizontal runout he must do at some point. We see the aftermath, as he hangs gracefully from a tufa, with the rope stretching uselessly to a bolt which looks about 20ft horizontally to his right, but I’d love to have seen how he got there.I really hope a fuller edit gets released at some point. And given the speed he climbs it probably won’t be that much longer anyway.
I think it is fantastic that we are able to download – for free - high quality videos of contemporary, cutting edge climbing.
Last point. Who else remembers when Chilam Balam was first climbed, and did you think the ascent was credible at that time? I remember it well, and I certainly believed Bernabe had climbed it at the time – and I still do, as it happens.
