    A magnificent chunk of Earth.
    Thank you for posting beautiful reality.
    Plastic competitions may be exciting in action, but life is HERE, in the world's intimate and elegant allure.

    I think I speak for many when I say a collab with Dave Macleod would make an excellent video. Your insights are great and looking forward to seeing you push the trad standards in Scotland and your future videos.

    Very cool Mat, I think detailing the process (including failure) is very important. Often we only see the end result rather than the gruelling process of reaching that point. Looking forward to the next one!

    Thank you for showing the process (failures included). Stoked you are making videos, keep at it mate! It looks like you can pull these moves. Fucking hell does it look hard though. You really think it’s v15 moves?

    • @Imthedragonreborn
      @Imthedragonreborn Před 15 dny

      If the rest of the route is any harder than like 6a, then it should already be 9b according to Darth Grader. Maybe maybe the crux is not quite 8C, or maybe maybe Bosi sandbagged the FA ^^

    • @chazott
      @chazott Před 14 dny

      @@Imthedragonreborn according to Ondra, 8C can exist on a 9a+ route, even if the top is like 8c above it, since that should not give much problem to a 9a+ climber in his words... Since Bosi climbs with Ondra and highly respects him, I assume his route grading is similar. However, I'm still baffled that the Silence crux is only considered 8C since it seems to thwart everyone who tries it. See vid about this from Ondra here: czcams.com/video/bsWNzOKL6-Y/video.html
