Ethan Pringle is back at Mt. Clark, home to that one route first done by that one guy:
Projecting a route like this requires all of your attention, and having to devote all of your attention to a route like this can get really tiring really fast. At some point, you just want to get it over with. Of course, afterward you feel a mix of relief and loss. Relief that you’re done and the epic is over, and loss that this magnificent line doesn’t require your presence anymore. But for me, I think I’ll have to take a nice long break from serious route projects for a little while after this. Like Randy Levitt said, “It’s like a limestone El Cap.” Obviously, that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but it does sort of convey the amount of work required to complete a project of this caliber.
Pringle is no stranger to Jumbo Love, having tried it even before its FA back in 2008. You can see some footage of his attempts here.
I don’t know about you, but I always try my best to climb close to an actual bathroom. In case you don’t, the Access Fund has a nice refresher on what to do when nature calls.
I guess it shouldn’t be surprising that with training like this that Canadian Yves Gravelle was able to climb his first V14 in Daniel Woods’ Echale in Clear Creek Canyon according to his 8a scorecard.

Keep an eye out for the scarf that makes an appearance near the end of the men’s video…

Really cool. I’m a little disappointed in the length of the videos though. The trailer got me psyched and these videos delivered, but I would have liked to see more content.

I would have liked to see more too. But you have to keep in mind that a) most people have a short attention span when it comes to internet video and b) it’s a fair amount of work to put these kinds of thing together.

Absolutely. The production value on the average for climbing videos is getting so good that I forget how much time this stuff takes to do. Very psyched about how good climbing videos are getting though.
Still, I always want more =)

Hi Jcoop,
I’m glad you’re liking the videos. We are working of an in-depth documentary centered on ABS Nationals featuring Alex Puccio, Alex Johnson, Sasha DiGuilian, Daniel Woods, Paul Robinson & Matt Bosley. You will get to see all the details including behind the scenes of the competition, and a more intimate look into the lives of these top competitors. This film will take a while to put together, so stay tuned for more updates.
Best,
Pablo
