So, why does this route have perma-draws? It isn’t extremely popular, overhanging, or hard to clean. In fact, if this actually was a proper crack climb (it was hard to tell from the video) it’s weird that there are bolts at all. There was a good article over at Evening Sends called Perma Problem that asks some good questions about permanent gear. I know it’s a bit off topic, but it’s something I noticed in this video.
Awesome looking climb, but really annoying video.

I agree. Way over produced.

Adidas + quadcopter…what else did you expect? Aesthetic climb…I, too, wish we could have seen it with less flash and cutting.

evening sends also mentioned the difference in project draws vs. Perma Draws. This is that difference.

What leads you to believe it is perma-drawed? Unless you saw something I didn’t, namely, them leaving without taking their gear back, I am confused.
Looks like an incredible route to me, as epic as I can imagine a sport route to ever be!
