More From Honnold On Too Big To Flail

Posted January 19, 2012 at 7:15 am · Comments { 3 } ·

Alex Honnold talks with PlanetMountain about his new highball in Bishop called Too Big To Flail:

This might be the biggest line that I’ve seen at the Buttermilks but it’s hard to say for sure because there is so much rock out there. It’s definitely rare though to find such a high-quality line on such good rock.

Alex Honnold: “I hardly ever do anything badass”

Posted October 18, 2011 at 9:00 am · Comments { 5 } ·

Alex Honnold has been getting a lot of attention lately, likely related to that TV show you might have seen him on. This recent interview he did with Trails Edge has several interesting nuggets including this one about what his life is like most days:

All I do is live my normal life and do my normal thing. I go out everyday and go climbing. People see a very cherry-picked thing, they don’t see the tons of days I go out there and totally suck. I hardly ever do anything badass. It’s just that when I do, it all happens on film. That’s the thing about climbing: at any level you’re always pushing yourself. So everybody, no matter how good they are, always feels like they suck because they’re always on some harder and harder project.
