I saw something, I can’t remember where, that featured Patxi Usobiaga talking about how chipping is ok and it is acceptable to make the routes feel better. He said that comfortizing holds would make routes more popular. An interesting example he used was a few of the early holds on biography had been modified…

Thanks, I corrected the Jade info.

That is interesting on the chipped route front and something that most people don’t even know about. It is strange that chipping is still an apparently accepted practice for some…

So psyched to see the D5 whenever I can. Sounds like it’ll be pretty kick-ass.
Too bad about American Gangster being chipped, whatever actually happened. James does have a point though, about there not being very many 5.14s in the world with, especially 14b or harder, with no manufacturing, or at least no chipped holds. It would be interesting to make a list of all the 14s out there with no chipped holds, pin scars or glue. I guess it depends on your definition of “Natural”.
Also, I think Ty got the 2nd on Jade, and Paul got the 3rd?

Yes, I had seen that awhile back. I have been in touch with the guys at Big Up about it to find out their side of things as I too found James’s post rather disturbing. I also found it hard to believe that Big Up would condone that sort of behavior.

I’m not going to say anything specific about my conversations with Big Up at this time, however I would caution you to remember that there are two sides to every story. I will say that based on my discussions with them it isn’t as bad as James makes it out to be, at least as far as Big Up’s involvement in what happened.

More to come on this though…

Yeah, they have had international flavors in all the previous 4 movies (mainly with US climbers) so it will be cool to see climbers like Andrada and Usobiaga as well as the different areas that will undoubtedly leave us feeling inferior with our rock here.

Looks like it is going to be the best line up so far. Super stoked for the
Spain stuff.
