Video of climbs I'd like to see....
December 30, 2006, 09:11:54 pm
Was thinking about something that Buoux 8C said about not making his videos publicly available.  This is a real shame as there are a huge number of sad people like me who'd love to see them, and not to prove his credentials, just because it's great to see hard / good problems dispatched by talented / world class climbers.

There may be such videos on the net already, but some climbs I would really like to have seen include:

Buoux 8C on Hubble, Action Direct, Malc's Start (Pool of Bethesda), Liquid amber, CT
Steve Maclure on his hard routes
Malcolm Smith on The Ace, Monk Life, CT
John Gaskins climbing his hardest problems
Tyler recent climbing rampage of the Peak, Cresciano and Hueco

I doubt very much if many of those videos exist, especially the gaskins ones, but i agree, it's such an inspiration to see waddage being committed.

Tyler recent climbing rampage of the Peak, Cresciano and Hueco

Tylers ascents of The Ace and Voyager are on the dvd Winter Sessions.
His ascent of Dreamtime was filmed, but purely for personal memories.

I agree would love to see some footage of classic hard routes/problems climbed by british guys (or girls!). It gets me really motivated, Tyler doing the Ace on Winter Sessions is awesome.

Be cool to see his ascent of dreamtime!!
Anyway it is time for a bit of this  :beer2: and lots of this  :beer1:!

HAve a good new year everyone!

The first ascent footage of Steve Maclure on Rainshadow is on one of the Masterclass DVD's.

I'm sure that someone filmed the first accent of Monks Life...which reminds me, I've also heard rumours of a new northumberland video floating round for ages now...

If you really want to tempt these people to let us see their personal collection, then how about you say exactly how badly you want to see them by specifiying a dollar amount?  They can then multiply that by a hundred odd climbers or whatever, and then do the math.  I'm sure uploading on a pay per view basis or getting someone to burn a few copies is straightforward.
