I don’t get why people throw temper tantrums when they fall off. Climbing is supposed to be fun, and if you are feeling that emotional from falling off you should re-evaluate why you climb. But anyway huge congrats and it was sick to watch you send!
Because some people dont climb to have fun the whole time. Its the same reason someone would run super long distances or push maxes while weight lifting, its to pursue excellence and push your physical limits. Its totally fine to only climb for fun, but its also totally rad to put all of your mind and body into something you are so passionate about. Anybody that has had any sort of long term project can confirm that these emotions are likely to happen during a long term project, they can drive you insane. But the most frustrating climbs always come with the most satisfaction when you finish them.
@@alexmarin9991 nah, you hit the nail on the head. He’s likely not like that all the time and this one just brought out the worst in him. To the guy saying you’d understand if you climbed that hard…you’re a douche. Difficulty is relative. Someone could project a V1 just as hard as Sam projected a V14. The value of the grade to the person is relative to their ability.
@@jlehm although I think you're both slightly in the right, this feels like needless devil's advocacy. I doubt anybody has projected V1 for 20 days, and if they did, they were likely dealing with a psychological boundary like fear rather than a physical boundary like executing difficult movements. Fear probably wouldn't elicit anger like failure to execute movements does for Sam.
Didn't even use the shirtless power bonus til past the crux, what a mad lad.
hahaha I loved his reaction when he topped out

Great FA but the multiple cuts during the send were a little frustrating. But congratulations to Sam Rockstein regardless.
There couldn’t be better Songs !!

Nice use of Pink Floyd
Every new Mellow video feels a little bit more like an Acid trip... Make of that what you will I guess...
If he falls he will probably crush you but make sure you spot em!
editing was 🤌🔥🔥
This video is aggressively psychedelic. Nice.
Some proper Floyd love warms my heart
That's a pretty pebble
Checked this zone out last month.... super sick.
4:37 mind blown
Grindy!
Yo what if he dabbed that rock to the left on the slab after the lip that would be so funny
Damn, must have sucked carrying all those pads up there everyday.
Not bad kiddo… jk that was epic
fucking mega
bad trip vibes
Why didn't he just Aid up it? Could have saved himself all those hikes back and forth....
Sort those feet out.
pretty cool I guess
this edit is waaack yo....hard to follow the progression
Dude has some aggression issues…
Hahaha I was thinking this
nah given the circumstances, I'd say this is a fairly low level of rage tbh. dude seems chill
Literally the most chill laid back dude I’ve ever met in my life lmao
@@treallday12345 reality may prove you correct, but this videos shows otherwise.
@@kockarthur7976 Chris Sharma is chill. This dude is getting edited left and right to trim the angry yelling.
V14? Those are jugs lol

Maybe you'll get it when you're projecting V14... Everybody is different
