I have to laugh at these forums, Phil is a quiet humble climber that sees a project that is worth him making the effort and he goes at it. Phils a lion when many of the people in this forum (no offense are lambs), I happen to be there and hike up with Phil when he stood under “Jade” and simply looked over at me and said “this is why Nikki and I came back to Boulder, I want this problem”. I noticed he didnt mention anything about personal glory, or even the grade of the problem, he simply saw a problem that was a challenge to him as well as his abilities; I think that is what makes Jade an amazing problem regardless of the grade. Let whomever downgrade it, shes mean and green and until people start putting in the time to do it they should keep their toungues as weak as their climbing.

I’ll believe you Wade! Jamie, I think you’re taking things a little too seriously. Why would Wade ever want to lie about this??? He’s already a Boulder legend, with or without Jade. He has nothing to gain from the ascent other than his personal satisfaction.

Go get em Wade!!! BS has your back.

Who cares about these uncut videos? It’s just scrambling up bits of rock. Why would you doubt someone? What’s the harm if you believe them and it turns out that they actually didn’t climb up some pebble?

Thank you for the videos Chris and others. I appreciate that you share your climbing with me. In a land of no climbing I find motivation in watching your movies. You’re psyched, I’m psyched and I’m sure that’s the purpose of your sites.

its rad that phil did this line. but do we really need to get in a pissing match about down grading or requiring footage of people doing moves or sending problems?

i propose a solution. lets all just go top roping.
