Bouldering Progression #1
Here's a commentated bouldering progression video, the first of many to come.
dude those white socks are horrible to watch at, and try to improve your
footwork by making some training drills (for example : push your big toe
onto the screw of the foothold before standing on the hold, this makes you
more accurate and more concentrated)
The rope work by the belayer and the protection placed by the leader is
terrible in this.
A: Why would you clip a single wire gate to your only two bits of gear on
the whole route? If the leader falls its just going to rip both out
regardless of there being two there.
B: When the leader moves up the nut could rip out and the cam could walk,
put some quick draws on gear it takes 5 seconds.
C: The belaying in this is awful, how much slack do you want to give out at
on point he is going to hit the deck regardless of a having protection
there.
Learn to keep your self safe first before doing E11's!
+Michael Morrell A&B: The single krab is because the gear is so low that having a small chance of the gear moving is less of a risk than having a 6-8" longer fall due to having a quickdraw on. It's a Ballnut slider not a cam and is less prone to walking, I think the slot is too tight for it to walk much anyway. The single krab doesn't increase the risk of gear ripping, it might be beneficial to keep the RP at the right angle too. Admittedly a screwgate would be better.C: The editing of the belaying is hammed up deliberately for the film. I presume that the large amounts of slack given are much higher up the route when Kevin is on HVS terrain above the higher, better gear.
God the accents in this are painful. E is for Extreme.... I just ripped my
finger off.... no dude no...bleugh. And yes what the hell is going on with
the belaying, I'm not surprised he managed to make it up with that kind of
motivation. It looks like he probably would have been dropped if he had
come off (never mind the non existent gear).
erm it wasn't really the slack that was the problem with the belaying! It doesn't even look vaguely safe. Cack-handed, struggling to pull the rope through and give slack (while he's trying to clip gear!), etc etc. I can't tell if it's a gri gri, it looks like one... either way he is using it incorrectly.

There are overhead shots at 1:53, 2:03 & 2:29, not to mention the close up,
with him speaking close to the camera, at 2:35. But distant views at 1:57 &
2:24 show nobody else on the rock. Did I miss something?
Just a view of what bouldering is from a beginners point of view.

These guys are awesome at climbing, but the main man here. He can really
fall, people have died from smashing against the wall, but he just drops
like a cat. Absolutly no resistance. That is ffing awesome. That shit needs
to be learned!
