Questo video racconda la storia di Ground Zero, prima via di arrampicata sportiva in Italia di grado 9a aperta da Alberto Gnerro (11/09/2002), in occasione della ripetizione da parte del fuoriclasse Stefano Ghisolfi il 9 giugno 2013.
Dopo tante peripezie il video è stato rilasciato nella sua versione integrale, NONOSTANTE le esigenze di mercato e le vostre preferenze impongano video BREVI di massimo 5-6 minuti, le mie esigenze lavorative non mi hanno permesso nell'ultimo anno di rimetterci mano per accorciare il montaggio. Ma in fin dei conti a me sinceramente piaceva raccontarvi una storia diversa, con calma, visto che dura BEN 13 minuti (più qualche extra!), quindi alzate la musica e godetevi le immagini che mescolano alta definizione e diaframmi ben aperti a slider artigianali e imbarazzante gestione dell'audio completamente senza microfono. Il risultato? Spero divertente, l'obiettivo è solo quello. BUONA VISIONE!

      I was curious about that, but not entirely confident in my abilities to discern natural from manufactured. The perfectly sized pockets made me suspicious. It a crazy cool looking wall though….straight out at 45 degrees (or so)

    Most hard sport climbs are manufactured in at least some way. Truth.

      Not the epitome of hard, but I know that Scarface (13d/14a) at Smith had a jug on it that was hammered off to make it harder. Actually where the route gets it’s name according to Watts.

    Yeah, like what? And manufactured, like a hold or two reinforced with glue, or drilled pockets, or what? Just being naive, I would assume drilling pockets is not common

    FRFM was altered. Nearly every hard climb in Utah and Nevada has drilled pickets or glued edges. Most of the climbs in Spain are at least glue reinforced. I’m not sure about Flatanger, but that may be the only place with truly natural and difficult lines.
