Check out http://www.modump.com/videos/motivation.html
There are some really good videos particulaly the 'friction addiction trailer'. Good regular content (closest thing around to climbX)
-
Good stuff - that film will be worth having I reckon.
-
Looks well good. Did you see the bloke with the fuct up face - he didn't look to happy, but the bird to his left has got the biggest grin on her face...

http://www.bigupproductions.com/pilgrimage.html (40megs!!) is the Trailer of the latest Josh Lowell production about Sharma and friends bouldering in Hampi India. It looks great if a little chessy but very polished and stylish.
Also check out http://www.boulderline.com
Also check out http://www.pulldown.ca/ for a trailer of a DVD about bouldeirng in Nova Scotia. Dover Island looks pure class.
Anyone know of any more good new stuff?
-
Didn't you compile a big list of all the online vids a while back? Might be good to post it if it's still in any way current?

http://www.theshortspan.com/stuff/videos.htm its here but a lot of the links are dead now.

Cheers for that...
-
Just watched that Josh Lowell thing. Excellent.
Love the Sadhu waking up and taking a massive hit on his chillum - hope Sharma didn't have any comps lined up soon after!
The boulder scenery is awesome - can't see that place getting climbed out this century. Love how smoothly that monkey climbs rock.
Sweet.
-
I knew there were endless bouldering possibilities at Hampi - but not that fucking much. I had to pick my jaw up when I saw that shot pan out on the landscape. :shock:
I keep talking about checking that place out when/if I go travelling, all I need to do now is get my arse in gear and get a round the world ticket and make sure I get there!

read a thing in the aussie mag rock about some guys who visited there - they thought it was mediocre, very painfull rough granite using mostly tiny crimps that eat fingers alive - they raved about Bedami though
-
Thats another place on the agenda as well, the monkeys are supposed to be pretty fierce in Badami by all accounts!
I reckon if you've visited the Bridestones on a cold winters day it should just about prepare you for anything else the world has to throw at you :wink:
-
There is are 2 new videos on http://www.udini.com
One about Hampi and Badami in India and one about DWS in Majorca

yeah hampi loox amazing but the possibilities are fewer than you'd rekon. i was there for a week this summer (too hot tho) and got a bit done. the holds are really savage and loads of rox are literally just blank. doesnt help when you've got dysentry either!! still tho, theres loads of new stuff to do cos of the sheer amount of rox. some of the boulders are sooo massive that they need bolting - which some have. ne1 else been?
-
was there for 2 months 2 years ago. went jan - march. best time would be end of oct to the end of jan. there is 400 kms of rock. have not got a clue why u would say there's not as much possibility as u'd think. holds are sharpish crimps, so would be funny to see some of our larger boulderers out there. luckily i got dysentry too, and for a moment i knew how easy climbing actually was if u didn't weigh anything. after an hour i had to lie down for the rest of the day cos i was so weak.
-
There is a good swedish bouldering video on
There is a new video on http://www.kjuge.nu/ about bouldering in Sweden its worth a look - http://www.utsidan.se/skaneskk/kjuge/kjugestor.wmv (58 Meg)
http://www.nadventure.com/Galleries/video/index.htm about bouldering in Gras, its fairly average.

check out Krimp, its a 30 min flick with malc and some others putting up some new problems somewhere in Europe.
pity about the soundtrack!
-
pity about the soundtrack!
I though it was good, original and a change from the alot of the crap in some videos.
-
i think the job of cutting classical music into a video such as that is a big task, and i don't think that it was carried out very successfully, and half an hour of classical music is quite a lot!
if the editing was better witht the music it could have been boss..

Yep, would tend to agree - the music doesn't bear any relationship to what's going on in the vid at all - plus, and I hate to sound like I'm whining, it's pretty boring full stop....... :roll:
-
The more bouldering videos I watch, the less interest I have in them. Unless you know the climbers or problems involved, they're all pretty tedious, with a few notable exceptions (most of which were made by Josh Lowell). "Krimp" isn't one of those exceptions. Although, to quote Ludwig van Beethoven, "classical music is proper bo"*.
* I may have made that quote up.

someone posted dis on planetqear.com - i fink its pretty fly.

The trousers are bad, but the video is good and the place looks great - never knew Sweden had sandstone.
Another clip of the place here (http://www.highsport.se/filmer/index.html) along with some cheeky rips from the Real Thing.

kim.
if you had a mofo-ing battery that lasted longer than five minute we could have been heavy rollin'!!! can't wire in a hilti battery or summert?
i'll see you on thurs.
-
is that swedish thing sandstone, i thought it looked granitey?

those exact same clips were on the old-old S7 website, so that'll be where they got em from.
-
I dunno - I thought it looked sandstoney shapes from a distance but some of the closeups of holds looks more granitey. Hard to tell really, maybe it's some strange Swedish only rock.

Triple Threat used to be on cXm.

Of course its granit and not sandstone, but yeah its a "strange" kind of granite.
Anyway the place is called Kjugekull and is one of the best bouldering spots in Europe, some even says its better than Font, but its not.
Lots of info and lots of films from the place can be found here: http://www.kjuge.nu (Hint, Filmer=films, arkiv=archive)
This is one is quite good: http://www.utsidan.se/skaneskk/kjuge/1001.wmv
-
Thanks for the links Steno - what would be a the best time of year to visit Kjugekull ?
-
Aye, it's ace. Spring or Autumn I'd reckon, it was almost cold enough but a little damp on the day for anything hard in the middle of September. Winter would probably be (literally) Baltic. Bub um tish.
-
You can climb on Kjugekull almost all year around. The best conditions generally occur in September, October, November and February, March, April. I wouldnt recommend camping this time of the year though...
In the summertime it is often quite hot with not so good conditions (slippery) as an result.

Thanks,
Jason

You see kids, this is what Crack Cocaine does to you. Perfectly functioning websites disappear before thee eyes innit. Stick to Heroin.

It's right up there with Del Boy falling through the hatch, a piece of timeless comedy.

Very cool!

Few dodgy rip offs from hard grit there, wonder if Rich knows! :?
-
does anyone else get sweaty hands when watching climbing vids/clips?
-
Yep, I do sometimes.
-
is this just cos I'm a sweaty freak or is it to do with a mental association with climbing and chalk ie your mind is thinking climbing and is expecting chalk on you hands and sweats to combat the dryness????
If this is the case, if you never climbed with chalk in first place your hand wouldn't sweat at all
-
Very cool!

Here is a short film from a trip to the peak, easter ´02.
No hard moves, just a lot of fun. Some dialog in norwegian, but it´s all bullshit anyway :)

Very nice video J.P, some pretty fly editing too
-
glad to see its not just me and kim who have a hard time on that B6 on the sheep boulder!
-
Do you mean the one up the crack with a pocket for your right hand?

sweet. probably the most stylish bit of video of bouldering I yet seen...
-

yo.
-
No way that fucker is b6 - it's desperate, and also the cause of underground's bloody finger after he ripped it on the pebble in the crack.
We've always called this Sickle Crack, but not sure if that's right or not.

I've only just watched this (couldn't do it at work)
J.P that video is way good - some of the nicest bouldering video I've seen anywhere.
Nice one, looks like you got through a good helping of Peak classics there :)
Love that effect just before the titles with the rolling clouds and the freeze-framed foreground. Great stuff.
-
glad to see its not just me and kim who have a hard time on that B6 on the sheep boulder!
I also have trouble on this as does anyone else I've seen on it. Infact I've still not done it as it always seems to rip my fingers to bloody shreadsDo you mean the one up the crack with a pocket for your right hand?
I'd hardly call it a pocket!
-
I've still not done it, despite catching the sloper a few times. I'm a bit scared of it now after underground's finger slashing!
-
Glad to hear you enjoyed the vid. Cheers :)
We had quite a bit of mindless footage after that trip. However, a few hours of editing helps.
And yes, that b6 was tricky. Had to come back the following year to do it.
-
JP that vid is excellent, really well executed!
-
Top vid, whats that traverse at abotu 1 minute 50 in to it?
-

It´s a traverse at Stanage plantation. Think it´s known as "bad landing traverse"
-
Superb video.

yeah, also known as a "jason traverse" - its a reet good little gem, often missed. the landings nowt to worry about with a mat - probably was a bit dicey in the bartowel era though.

Hampi looks killer. Note sure if his buddy Nate is famous for anything other than being his mate though.
I saw the Nova Scotia thing as part of the Telluride Film Festival winners collection. It does look ace, apart from the bit filmed during their "bug season". Makes our midgies look positively weedy.
