I feel cheated! I expect porno sounds every time he makes a move..

Awesome video of the great red roof in RR

Did he do that in TC Pros? Fuck me I guess they really can do everything. Why do they look so downturned, are his feet that strong?

Dear God the music

I never understood people complain about music in the climbing videos. I didn’t even notice it.

I had the sound on mute, but doesn't look like he screeches as much when crack climbing.

He grunted through the crux but no full on screams.  I doubt anybody can do the crux of Belly Full without making some noises though.  The music really did make the suspense over the top.  Too bad that wasn't an onsight for him.

Sorry, I don't mind the atmospherics of Indian Creek one bit.

I heard he downgraded Silence to 12d after climbing that, lol.

Or rather he doesn't yell as much when climbing two full number grades below his onsight limit, nearly 3 number grades below his redpoint limit.

I love this video of Brad Gobright on Hayden Kennedy's Kokanee Corner. The whole vid's great but Kokanee starts at 6:21ish.

He was WAY outside of his comfort zone on that though.  He was getting crazy leg pump on his leading leg so I don't think that was a cake walk for him.  He admitted he almost missed the finish jug.

That gave me a hernia just watching.

Maybe this means Ondra will put down the 2020 medal attempt and put up 5.15 OW

That’s a high quality pleasant video and he was super smooth but why is that R.

Hard to tell from the video.  Those first couple pieces of gear look fairly small, and maybe insecure?  Also looks like basalt, which can be pretty smooth and tricky with small gear. And, looks like a decent run out to the chains, but it did look like there were gear placements if he wanted them and no huge risks from a fall at that point. 

Great video, though, especially with a drone.  I don't feel like I'm seasick after watching it.
