    American climbers can get so caught up, the language they use; it’s like they’ve invented all these words for what is actually a very ineffective way of climing pretty easy stuff. I want to take these people onto peak grit and teach them some serious shit

      Yea, I’ve never heard anyone talk about “heel-hooking” or “bumping” outside of America before. And have you ever tried a “heel hook”…? It’s really ineffective in the way that it takes weight off your arms and allows your hips to get closer to the rock.

      Anyway, I’m sure there are plenty of Americans who would be happy to show you “some serious shit” underneath the Martini roof if you ever come stateside. 

      Cheers.

    Nice video of normal climbers having fun. Grades are irrelevant, Squamish is amazing and the video highlighted how good the problems are at any grade. Nice job.

    I thought the video was very well done, a solid 10, especially that girl in the hat. She’s real hot. I actually just had dinner with her 😉

    9 – because if there aren’t any sponsored climbers in their teens, anorexic, climbing stuff they’ve rehearsed 100xs, then it isn’t worth watching. climbing shouldn’t be fun.

    Neg, talk about butchering boulders. Looks like these guys dropped straight out the gym and have no concept of using their toes. You should see what 3 star V4 superfly looks like over here (castle hill, nz), some what more solid than that jug haul.
