In the last decade both climbing and bouldering have changed significantly. At the end of the 90s and the start of the 2000, the scene was dominated by charismatic personalities.

These have been replaced by less colourful people in a never ceasing performance spiral.

But maybe I’m just old fashioned, and probably this is simply something that belongs to this modern era and its character.

PlanetMountain Interviews Petit About Black Bean Ascent

Posted September 20, 2011 at 1:13 pm · Comments { 1 } ·

PlanetMountain interviews Arnaud Petit about his ascent of the 5.13d sport route Black Bean on trad gear, touching on his motivations for doing so and whether or not he considered removing the bolts:

No, I never considered this as Black Bean is a great sport route, established by Bruno Clément, really world-class and a true classic. Ceüse is a sport crag, the rock is not really suited to gear placements so there is no reason to remove the bolts. Even had I worked the route not using the bolts but instead by using a static fixed from above, I would not have had this idea. I am 40 now and I don’t want to teach others how the things should be through this types of actions, even if I understand people removing bolts in some crack areas. As I see it, I am very very happy that we can climb this route playing two different games, without controversies.

Well said.

The Other Side Of Life As Alex Honnold

Posted September 12, 2011 at 1:39 pm · Comments { 0 } ·

Adventure Journal catches up with Alex Honnold to discuss the fact that although he may be one of the world’s best climbers, his lifestyle and diet are not exactly glamorous:

I have a 2002 Ford Econoline van that I live out of. And no, it’s not glamorous at all. Sorry, but camping is not cool when you’re a homeless person. When you’re doing it all year, well it’s just not romantic. There’s a reason people live in cities. Do you know how I often I say to myself, “I could really use a shower!”?
