Bouldering - Hardest redpoints - Rock climbing - Video
For their second film, the Les Collets Team stayed with their successful recipe: great climbing sequences (similar to Dosage videos), with an emphasis on climbing, cool images, esthetics and the climbers themselves!Pour ce deuxième opus, le Team Les Collets ont décidé de rester dans la même logique: filmer une succession de séquences d'escalade (un peu à la manière des Dosages), avec comme ambition de donner la priorité à l'escalade, l'image, l'esthétisme... et bien sûr, aux grimpeurs!

Long Routes - Petzl Team extend themselves July 17, 2009

Hardest redpoints - Multi-pitch - RocTrip - Rock climbing
The Petzl Roc trips get better and better, bigger and bigger. This year was no exception, with single pitch routes 100m long, I don't think they get any longer. I was invited again, obviously as the token Brit, there for dry humour and poor dress sense and perhaps because I've won a few trips, even up against the likes of Sharma and Andrada. Fortunately they hadn't spotted it was clearly either a fluke or involved some serious cunning. On performance alone I think I'd be lucky to scrape in![ Read more ]

Link - ups: do they count for much? November 2, 2008

Hardest redpoints - Rock climbing
Not really, but does anything in our sport really make sense? We look for the hardest way up the wall, then try and find the easiest way up it! Link-ups are fun for training, though often make two OK routes into one really good one.
