I had never seen either consumed or shock of the new before now. Watched them after watching Jim's video. All proper simple climbing videos with some hard, some beautiful, some scary, and some crazy stuff. Thanks all for sharing those! More please?

In a slight change of pace...Dani Andra develops a four pitch 8a 'Ocho Veranos con Bruna' in the Desfiladero de la Hermida, a huge gorge just east of the Picos de Europa. It gives a good flavour of the area that probably has more rock than Wales. If you don't fancy the epic approach, Rumenes has similar style single-pitch climbing 10 minutes from the road.
Enjoyed that, he looked absolutely boxed trying to drill the hole from that kneebar.

Don't know if there were subtitles or what they were like, but he was shouting down that the block was moving and he and the block might go flying together at any time...
The classic route-cleaning trundle vid:
I quite liked this. Nice to know he’s still psyched out of his bonce, climbing into the night on what looks like a traversing link up similar to Brian at Ansteys.

Enjoyed this! The Mellow lads put out some good stuff!
Great story about Les Specialists: climbing is so much more fun when bitter rivalries are acknowledged.
...and very chill in general, not only on film but when you are running into him at the crags as well.
Probably most of you have seen this already but I thought this was quite gripping: Ondra well out of his comfort zone on the Indian Creek offwidth Belly Full of Bad Berries.
