| First Ascent DVD by Sender Films If you like trad climbing | | A totally inspiring film for trad climbers. Compelling storyline, nice pace, gets a little slow in the middle (with one not-so-inspiring and one comic sequence), then picks right back up again. What's really cool is also how the director captured the essence of / personallity of the climbers. I have had the good fortune of attending a trad-climbing clinic run by Cedar Wright (one of the featured climbers) at the 07 Petzl Roc Trip and after sharing a car trip with Cedar as well as half a day of his teachings, I feel like he is pretty much the guy you see in this video; he's able to be so much better than the rest of us at this sport yet stay totally approacheable, psyched about his climbing, easy going but sets goals and works hard to get there. On a personal level, after having seen how the climbers in this video commit to moves after having placed their gears, and then not worry about falling and just concentrate on the moves, I have actually improved my mental side through emulation; and sure enough, the added focus just makes for a better climbing experience; net net: worrying less = less falling and therefore I am actually a safer climber than when I fussed more. | | First Ascent DVD by Sender Films Product Description | | 111810 Features: The film focuses on climbing's modern day pioneers and their quests to make first ascents of the most astounding unclimbed rock formations and mountains in the world to taking you from the Himalaya's to deep-water soloing in Thailand, to the Black Canyon all the way to the buildings of Hollywood Specifications: Length: 68 minutes |
