In 2008, Dave Wetmore suffered a debilitating finger injury that has plagued his climbing career. After fully rupturing the A2 pulley on his left ring finger and having a rarely done reconstructive surgery, his doctor told him that climbing would be nearly impossible, especially at a professional level. After a year of rehabilitation Dave hit the bouldering scene with a new found drive. Dave set his sights on a V14 in Colorado called BIG WORM and never looked back. This is the story of Dave's experience with BIG WORM.

    Save yourself 6:15 and skip right to 6:15. There’s nothing really useful/informative/interesting before that that can’t be learned from the caption.

    First off, the climb and the idea were sweet. That being said…holy shit. Just because you have a lens that can open up really wide doesn’t mean you have to rake the focus for EVERY shot or have entire shots out of focus. I feel like I should’ve been wearing glasses to watch the video.

      Of course. I agree that this video has its flaws – its length, the overuse of focus pulls, etc – but the concept was a good one in my opinion.

    This is pretty much a perfect example of what makes LT11 clips so frustrating. There are some really nice shots mixed in with a bunch of failed attempts at artistry. Would’ve been much better if they had just come out and told the story in a 45s intro instead of 6 min of garbage footage.
