This is one of the best short videos of climbing in the last year or so, no special taste music just a little bit of history and some impressive calm climbing at a historic and brilliant venue.
Domje they were a great shoe. I don’t know why evolv stopped doing them. Had the same rand as the 5.10 anastazi I think. Great combination of technical and comfort
Excellent! Top quality and really was a good guide to the crag! I cannot understand how you could be talking about historical figures whilst hanging in such precarious looking positions. Great video!
Thanks for that. It’s geeat to see this is still getting some love. Yeah jack is a real pro, he can answer any difficult question from precarious positions, I think he said he once did a tax audit whilst redpointing rainman. 😂. Thanks again.
Watching his confidence to place his hands and not faff whilst paying great attention to his feet underlines how much I spend the other way round ....on VS/HVS
That's that I always think when watching the big boys climb, it's something I don't think I could change if I'm honest, but then I'm super happy to be bumbling about vs/hvs with the odd forey into low E's
Cracking vid but fk that soloing off, I took a bad fall leading indoors and decked out from the last (fairly easy) move, now my arse goes even on sport routes, unbelievable how these guys keep there cool.
How in the hell do you deck out indoors from the last move? In the gyms I climb in that would require like at least 3-4 biners to fail or unclip. Or a really, really shit belayer.
This video annoyed me for some reason. Just seemed like a man showing off he could solo routes the average person would have to do in a traditional style. He even refers to a friend of his that broke his arm and then proceeds to solo that route. All seems an ego exercise and was difficult to watch
Hey. Thanks for your feedback. It means a lot when people take the trouble to respond, and I'd prefer negative feedback than just indifference. I know what you mean, it's pretty annoying sometimes, I filmed a guy climb an E7 and to descend instead of abbing off he solo down-climbed an HVS (a route I would have found a challenge to climb up) I let him know how insulted I was - I laughed, he laughed we all laughed. I hope, however, that it's more of an inspiration, not to solo routes that are beyond you but to see what's possible. My leading improved by filming people climbing really hard stuff, not to the lofty heights of E7 or beyond but I went from comfortably climbing E1 to comfortably 'having a go' at E3/4, just because these titans gave me some confidence. But yeah I agree, I hate them too, making us normal people feel incapable of meeting such lofty ambition 😂. Thanks again

ste bostock just about to comment along the same lines but then realised I couldn’t put it any better myself!!
Third this - fucking sweaty palms watching him... jeeesus.
I did Great Western back in the 1990's, brilliant route, one of my all time favourites.
where can I buy invisible gear and rope like yours?
Great video, classic historic climbs
Great vid, could have watched for hours!
Very Impressive soloing, having been on some of those routes they felt a lot harder. Great vid
awesome climb!
Somehow only just found this video now, love it. I actually had those evolv pontas shoes too! Great short video!

Gradely, More than good.
Impressive soloing 👍
I recognize this climber from EpicTV. Awesome video.
Smooth solos youth.

If that's what you like come check out the Noth Eastern climbing like the ADK and Gunks

Great vid

be interested to hear the answer to that, belayer let go of the brake rope?
good video bro. i like it. thanks. another thing: you have less cerebelum than a ping-pong ball or you have two balls like the billar ones...
Ey up.
Great Western is 4 star route, only one in the book with 4 stars.
I'll stick to my bouldering..
The top out on the last one worried me a bit....
Jack, do you have one moment in which it could of gone all wrong and in which you could of lost your life?
HVS?
