  • Greenspit is a route of mythical status. Bolted and “defaced” as some traditionalists would say with green hangers (hence the route’s name), the route thwarted all suitors until the legendary swiss trad ace Didier Berthod chopped the bolts and made the first ascent placing natural pro.
    For Babsi Zangerl, Greenspit was a challenge always waiting in the wings ... until thanks to Covid, the fall of 2020 found her home in Europe and not on El Cap.
    Babsi spent last fall in Italy’s famed Valle dell’Orco where she racked up and committed to the steep roof crack. And after enduring the runouts, whips, and painful hand jams, Babsi became the first woman to succeed on Greenspit.

      Yes, love to hear from the athletes (especially Babsi and Jacopo) but I agree with the less cuts. Most of the people who watch this for the climbing content would probably like to see the movement rather than a bunch of cuts from position to position.

      Agreed, and also keep more gear placements in! Seems like a no-brainer since BD sponsored and they sell cams.

      The weird non-subtle gear close-ups detracted a bit too. Why not just put a link in the description to the BD site to a blog post with some more shots, or a couple of those products and keep the art art? Stay classy, Black Diamond.

      @@stevebarratt888 Remember, though, BD isn't just making this series because they love filming climbers and their accomplisments. It's easy to forget that this is, in fact, an advertisement. It's a very well executed one, like much of their stuff, but it's definitely an advertisement.

    • @Govanification
      @Govanification 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Either yoinked up the rope and belayer progress captured or she lowered to the ground and started over. Looks like that was during pre-placed gear attempts so no biggie to pull the rope and leave gear.
