Follow along with the lads from Sheffield with this climbing video while they attempt the 5th ever free ascent of the Salathe and learn what Valley climbing is all about. Watch closely as they gear up and come to grips with the smooth, wide cracks and thin face climbing needed to do the deed. Brilliantly filmed, great story, original sound track and winner of Best Film at Vancouver International Film Festival. Includes bonus 'Splinter' bouldering. A must for every El Cap aspirant.
Two of Britain’s top free climbers decide to take on one of Yosemite’s most awesome lumps of granite: the thousand vertical metres of El Capitan – via it’s hardest line – with no experience of big walling whatsoever.
Fired up on a diet of bagels, the climbers, Rich and Neil, set off to do battle with the dizzying exposure and raking crack lines of this historic face. The ensuing agony is captured in this spectacularly shot film, that exudes passion and humour and takes a refreshingly honest look at living 6 days in the vertical world.
This new DVD stacks up over 45 minutes of extras including out-takes, director’s commentary, crew scenes and the award winning short Splinter, about Scotland’s super-strong Malcolm Smith conquering Britain’s hardest boulder problem.
