Climbing Video: Brad Weaver Sending “Fifty Words For Pump Right” (5.14c)

Anytime there is an up and coming climber from the midwest, you KNOW I am going to pimp them hard.

 Brad Weaver is a climber from Bloomington, IL that had a great 2008.  I’m hesitant to give him too much props because he is from Illinois, but in this case I’ll make an exception since he climbs way harder than I ever will.  

Most notable among his 2008 ascents were his repeat of Fifty Words For Pump Right (5.14c) and his 2nd ascent of Joe Kinder’s Southern Smoke (5.14c), both at Kentucky’s Red River Gorge.  Here is some video from Spencer Victory of Weaver’s send of Fifty Words (in the summer no less!):

After the route climbing season ended at the Red, Weaver moved on to the boulderfields of the south where he has quickly sent problems up to V12.  Soon he will be heading out west to climb in Utah for the next 6 months.

    Thats a great peace of climbing, and for once… strangely… I’m not bothered by music in the clip (because you can still hear the ambient noise and the effort he’s putting in) and I’m not bothered by the rap music, but that’s just inexplicable.

    Great posts lately Narc.

    I found the music to be a touch on the obnoxious side, but I appreciated being able to hear the effort going into the send.

      every time i think that i’ve set and sent something sikk hard in my basement, i go outside and realize that it was really like v3, even though the holds and steepness of those basement lines look like v11 outside. rhe ball of confusion grows no moss… or whatever

    Not to bring mothers into this but… directed at ________ (your name there)

    YOUR *MOM* IS A TOUCH ON THE OBNOXIOUS SIDE!!!

    Oh snap!!
    Wow… I’m actually really ashamed of myself right now.

    On topic, videos like this make me actually interested in route climbing where as, I just get so fed up when I actually do it. Sockhands… I feel the shock this video brought on… stay strong my brother.

    If only all the climbs at the Red were as fun as this one looks. In my experience, the harder a route at the Red the more fun and interesting it is.

    i didn’t do tons when i was there the one time, my first road trip, in 2000… but, i thought fuzzy undercling was pretty cool. creature feature as well. twinkie looked great, but i didn’t have the time for it… friends psyched for other stuff…

    there’s great lines at every grade, fool!

    also, something called infectious seemed really cool but none of us could smell the crux at the time, but then again, v4- was hard then as well.

    remember narc, the 5.10 steep jug hauls are always the most popular climbs in the gym. why is that? because steep jug pulling with no distinguishable crux is not boring, it is the climbing of gods.

    live this plan.

    Infectious is so good. It is somewhat atypical in that it is only 40 feet long and features a hard bouldering crux as opposed to endless pulling.

    it’s all scary. climbing pumped 5 feet over a bolt is like driving 100 mph at gunpoint. pure horror.

      Climbing pumped 5 feet below a clipped bolt is terrifying to me…

    Sure, but which 12’s are the shortest and softest? Inquiring minds need to plan my next trip’s tick list.

        Sweet! Think about coming with and giving me in-person beta. If it looks like it’s going to be nasty weather in Kentucky that weekend a couple of us might head to the comp at Prairie Walls and get schooled by the kids instead. Only a couple more years and I get to compete in the geriatric (“experienced”) category, haha!
