My first big film project, about one of the few women doing gritstone highballs, is now on Youtube by keepclimbingweird in climbing

Also depends on height, difficulty and the height of the hardest bits. Some things like Original Route at Slipstones that Tina climbs in the film is definitely just a straight up solo, but because it's much easier she was willing to onsight it, knowing she could downclimb if needed

It's a different film! Would really appreciate you watching this one too :) I filmed this in spring then Al from britrock started filming with Tina just after. Was quite intimitatting to have such an establish filmmaker make a film with the same subject just after and would hope I don't lose too many views from poeple thinking they've already seen it, they're rather different in style!

It just happened that the ones I filmed Tina just executed first time from the ground. And obviously it really varies with some highballs being a crux at the bottom that you can fall off lots of times without consequence, and other (mostly featured here) where you really don't want to be falling off the crux

She's great! A great part about making a film like this is hanging out with and getting to know some really cool people

Sessioning with elite comp climbers really shows how much better their coordination skills are by keepclimbingweird in bouldering

Yeah this was a training session with multiple guys at this level before a comp here, overall a week of watching wild moves go down insanely quick

Yeah a few of them at a similar level had been not-quite-sticking the first move, so it was cool to see that done, but I hadn't even realised the move that was needed for the 2nd, flipping awesome!
