Found this short and sweet video of The Crouch in the NRG, but the original thread is gone. Appears that the original creator account no longer exists, so I guess the thread died too. 

Hopefully this one can stick around for us all to share some really awesome videos. Clint Cummins shared tons of fabulous videos, maybe he can share them again for us? Someone was posting all those rad Seb Bouin videos, share them again!

Some of my favorites:

Ganesh has some of the coolest rock I've ever seen (send footage starts at 9:55)

Rob Schoenborn has some sweet videos of hard JTree routes—Hot Pants, The Cutting Edge, and Father Figure

The Alex Megos Patagonia films—Perfecto Mundo and Bibliographie

Stefano Ghisolfi has been posting lots of videos of him working 5.15 projects including Change in Flatanger and the Erebor project in Arco, Italy.

Compare to Ondra's crux beta at 6:50 in this video

One of the most beautiful climbable formation I have ever seen documented—Flower Power in the Grampians

Just a really nicely done video

This one flew under my radar but was a great video of a hard climb.

Great video of another hard climb.


This has non-sport climbing in it and sometimes annoying music but a good tour of some cool areas.

@John L—Lots of good stuff, I had never see Angel of Pain before, what a route! Castle Hill seems so amazing and the route looks beautiful and totally brutal, thanks for sharing

@Alex H—classic video, hope you're doing well, dude :)

Another look at that spectacular Grampians feature—Eye of the Tiger—I don't get sick of it

I’m pretty sure I watch this video at least once a week. No fluff, no fuss, just good climbing.

Wow, beautiful climb. I hope for their sakes that the route really is 15a and that the Wideboyz won't come and make it share the same fate as Pamela Pack's routes. 

Traversi's repeat of Meltdown gives him obvious credibility alongside several other impressive ascents. Webb's ascent of Dreamcatcher also gives some good context. But there's something about boulder bros liebacking bolted cracks (yes, they look pretty flaring and decomposing) that makes me a wee bit curious, but not skeptical. 

Regardless, what a wonderful piece of rock and super cool movement!

Some other videos I've come across again that were probably in the original thread. (There are a lot)





This new video from Petzl—whoa, what a place!

Was recently reminded of these awesome videos of Ethan Pringle, which were probably also on the original thread

Ethan Pringle's 2nd ascent of Jumbo Love

Epic.

Some highlights to look out for:

  • bleeding fingers
  • climbing the crux in the sun
  • cutting feet mid crux unintentionally, but staying on
  • sticking the last hard move one handed and cutting feet with a full swing
