peace.
-
I'll have to watch them all properly with sound at home but Kim's vid is great - the start is well funny; I was thinking "what's going on here" before an psychotic looking Scouse suddenly launches into view - nice :)
-
fucking hell. i'm gonna be famous :8)
-
yeah, as the guy who spazes off peter pan. :lol: :wink:
-
didn't you used to have your pic or a namecheck in climber every month - i beleive thiis was the piss-take of choice when we first met such a rock star as thee. :wink:
-
it used to be "find out what neo-classics scouse had put up by reading climber".
-
word D. I thought you just hung out with me for lifts but the truth will out. Cofe, you can blow me later :wink:
-
worth remembering that your place in climbing history is guaranteed, what with your photo in the nWales bouldering guide. Well i say guaranteed - only to those who own a good quality magnifying glass.
:saythat:
-
what do you mean????? scouse is giving a great spot in that photo :worthy: :worthy: :wink:
-
nice video Kim. I'll have to make sure to register and vote. If we all get in are votes for you and vote the rest down then maybe you could split the prize! :lol: :wink:
-
Great to see you are supporting the home town guy!! I think it is a great video for sure... Oh so many more to come! Thanks again all!!

i wouldn't bother with the rest of them as the result is now a foregone conclusion..... :8) :lol:
-
I've just watched all of them back to back and I do think that Kim's is the best film.
Fast paced, but nicely edited, not a "cut-fest" and a good mix between the road-trip, the bouldering and the forest itself. Nice use of music to seperate the different parts of the film and some clever use of slow-motion/fast-forward effects without becoming over the top.
2nd I'd put the Hueco film - the stills at the start were good and a good chilled soundtrack, well framed camera-work and some good looking bouldering.
3rd would be the Squamish film - mainly close in camera work of the harsh looking granite bouldering at the base of the big wall of Squamish Chief. A sort of claustrophic feel to it, and a really nice soundtrack - what's that track anyone?
4th Sherman Roof clip - It conveys how it can feel sometimes when you're sessioning a project all day, and the problem looks excellent - nothing wrong with the film apart from just a bit relentless, and the framing wasn't so good at times.
-
Nice one, Kim, that's really good. Any chance of a breakdown of what the problems are? I can identify a fair few of them but others are new to me.
-
i'm about a third of the way through a HK bouldering shirt - found atrack i liked and gradually piecing the bits to it - if i get it done soon i'll send it in - far more interesting than all this main stream stuff...........
-
nice video Kim. I'll have to make sure to register and vote. If we all get in are votes for you and vote the rest down then maybe you could split the prize! :lol: :wink:
yeah some kind of holds-for-votes scandal... :lol:

an cheers for the analysis bubba! :up:

All off the top of my head you understand...... :oops:
-
That's a lot of problems for a clip that's just a few minutes long !!
-
actually theres only about half a dzoen problems there, peter pan, ange naif, rubis, smatch, salle gosse !
-
dave, u look like u can actually dyno on that vid :wink:
scouse, wot kind of drugs r u on? u look like the very devil himself is comin up behind u!
-
scouse is generally mainlining ibuprofen at the crag.
-
Ibuprofen, ibuprofen gell and psyche are all I need to fail on problems
-
god scouse, i can do that without the medication :lol:
-
But can you do it and look like the devil incarnate at the same time?
-
Ibs make scouse go crazy....
-
fucking hell D you must have built up a right Ib tollerance by now. I bet 800mg doesn't even touch the sides anymore.
-
can you get 800mg? tell me, tell me.....
them 400mg don't touch the sides anymore
I'll have to start double dropping :lol:
-
i was thinking 800 as an amount rather than a self-contianed unit. Maybe you could start making painkiller products especially for boulderers - 1g ibs, , ibuprofen+caffine enery drinks etc...
-
it'll be well needed. just had two days in wales and my body is absolutely fuct
-
http://www.hongkongclimbing.com/gallery/videos/hongkong.htm
a few bits of scrappy editing, but not too bad for an evenings work.......
-
Like it Stu - bet you feel a bit odd carrying a pad in HK :D
Only complaint is there's a bit which is a bit too compressed and I couldn't see it properly, but apart from that it's an interesting bit of film, and the bouldering looks good too - must be nice to have all that to yourself!
-
views perfick for me
nice hairline BTW stu. :8)
-

i modelled it your goodself...........
following a rather harsh critique from the misses (too much crammed in was her view) and a more thorough search through my archives (almost 9 full dv tapes) a slightly reworked version is now up - same link

Thats Le Mur du Son at Petit Bois. :up:
-
good knowledge
see on here (http://bleau.info/petit/749.html) - i'd like to speak to the wad that thinks its 6c+. :huh: :?:

Yeah, I saw that when we got back, but those comments about it being 7a/ 6c+ are from people who have started from the high hold on the left. From which position that grade is probably about right. The crux moves of the problem is pulling off the ground from the lower holds (that are the only holds most people could reach from the ground on one or no mats) and reaching that higher hold. I think that is what the later poster on there is implying as well. Those other guys are obviously either well tall or using more than one mat.
(this also justifies me whinging at you for trying to reach that higher hold from the ground :wink: maybe.)
-
aye, but i still couldn't pull onto the high hold, QED it must be harder than 7a :wink:
-
There's some more vids up on the page now - some of them pretty good too.
Yosemite v-grades look pretty harsh!
-
they're supposed to be nails there!
-
Was completely put off the Kubrick vid by the awful soundtrack - not even inspired to watch it without the sound. When that guy is filming midnight lightning, wouldn't you have got that other bloke to move, or at least cut him out? spoils it really.

the camera could have use a tripod there anall - looks proper shakey otherwise innit.
-
There's one of them where the soundtrack is badly done, with no attempt to mix / cut stuff together, just one track ends and the other one starts.
Framing seems to be a common problem, you often get hands / feet missed out of the shot, which can be frustrating.
-

They are! Very crimpy and you've gotta be dead accurate on the edges/footwork as some bits are polished to fuck (Midnight Lightning for example)
Still some classics that are ok for the grade like Cocaine Corner V5 - Have to check these vids out when I get home, see if theres anything I recognise. :)

Nothing like the smoove pimp daddy editing and camera work on one of the Font vids, shame about the climbers! :wink:

I know. Must be disheartening when the climbers on a video are so strong
-
Nah, to be honest i reckon i reckon Kim's Font Vid is the best out of the lot, with no bias at all. A lot of the other ones just look a bit thrown together and not proffesional or owt. good job! :worthy:
-
Does anyone know what happened to this Font video? At first I thought it was Font Emotions but it seems not.
-
I expect www.beardownproductions has long ago been snapped up by hipster beard owners.
-
A low res version is here
https://youtu.be/ileu2ysabqY
-
Question is - did it win!?!?!
-
How a climbing film should be! That was ace!
-
Font Emotions is one of the best bouldering films ever made (the other two of the top 3 being Glory Days and Lifetime Project), but it doesn't match with this problem list:

All off the top of my head you understand...... :oops:
There's obviously a lot of crossover. Like beetle footage, and footage of Peter Pan etc, but the quoted list doesn't mention Marie Rose etc. So two different films were made? I don't think Poids des Soupirs appears on FE. Don't think there's more than one very brief clip of someone falling off Sale Gosse either?
-
Hold on to your hat, Will. I think I have both versions saved at home.
The old segment of this thread is some dope heyday UKB shit, word.
-
It's a good idea we've all grown up and moved on from all that, eh?
Ah, actually - hang about.
-
I think I have both versions saved at home.
Word, I straight up do. 10-4. If someone can give me the 411 on how to share it via Limewire or Napster then I'll send it over.

I believe the twenty twenty protocol is to bung it in a Dropbox? I am very excited for this!
-
I'll do that in exchange for a moritorium on downgrading.
-
You drive a hard bargain. I can perhaps agree to limit any downgrading behaviour to problems which Fiend has projected?
