  • We travelled to Bishop for this year's athlete summit with The North Face and it was absolutely incredible! This place definitely brought up the boulderer in me, and I was very surprised and satisfied to put a few hard sends in the bag!

    I like how Stefano is showing that also pro climbers are human and that it is better to be wise than brave on a scetchy topout.

      @@shawntrevordaniel The route it came from is called La Rose et la Vampire, and the rose move itself was actually on holds that were chiseled into the rock, back when that was less of a taboo thing to do. It was chiseled, named, and sent by Antoine Le Menestrel, who said the movement “opens itself up like a rose petal and offers itself to the gaze of spectators.”

    10:30 - "I decided not to top out because it was too dangerous and for me it was not worth it" - MASSIVE RESPECT for doing/saying that. Far too many climbers (who are also route setters/log boulders) say that "The danger is part of the boulder", and then you see a 5-10m highball...
    Not it's fucking shouldn't... One day someone is going to break a leg or get paralyzed because you decided to put that problem into the topo.

    • @miguelgazquez5717
      @miguelgazquez5717 Před rokem +1

      The danger is part of the boulder. Stefano just decided it was not worth it, maybe because he is primarly a route climber so taking risk for something wich is just a game is not worth it for him. We can all make our decisions about risk.
