Climbing Vid

[Distel32]

I posted this in the RC forum but wanted to post it here as well.

 

I made a short vid in Joe's Valley. has 5 problems and shows wirlwind climbing a 25ft crack sans climbing shoes, spotters and pads. Right click the link and save it on your comp, 33megs so it may take a little awhile, but the vid is 6 mins.

 

If you have feedback I would love yo hear it. Thanks,

 

Luke

i ran outta patience for the download. can you make 30 second and 60 seconds spots like tv commercials?

[Distel32]

you bum watch it!

 

I have the problems individually but not on my comp, plus then I have to get someone to host them.

 

just start the download and forget about it/

Did you make the video by compiling all the images you took with your digital camera?

[Distel32]

no I borrowed a friends' video camera

first shot it looks like he is humping the rock

 

Interesting camera angle on the crack climb.

 

on the traverse, how can you call it climbing if the climber doesn't go up?

 

other than that, good job just post up shorter ones

[scott_harpell]

wait... was that crack in skaha? it looks soo like the one we soloed... even the tree at the bottom... huh... weird.

Cool video, thanks for sharing. What are the ratings on the routes in it?

I thought it was pretty cool. It's always fun to see homemade shit. Anyway, there was some camera bounce that made it a little screwy. My only compaint is that fu#%ing sideways camera action. That crack climb looked good (a little sketchy at the top?), but the camera was too far away and watching it with my head cocked at a 90 degree angle took away from it. It was fun to watch though, so keep 'em coming.

 

For those that don't want to wait for the download: dive into the 21st century and get broadband.

dammit man! i have never spent so much time on a download. not even for free porn.

joes looks pretty cool though. tiny rocks and all.

[fredrogers]

Cool video, in spite of the camera andgle on Boux Crack.

 

Looks like you guys had a fun trip.

 

Keep them coming.

[SublimeSalamander]

couldn't make it work.

COUGH *bullshit* COUGH *bullshit* COUGH *bullshit*

 

PLLLLLEEEEAAAASSSSEEEEEEEE, Lummux, everybody spends more time than that on free porn, you might save that for your wife. If you'd just pony up the money, a broadband connection will have this playing in less than 30 sec. Not only that, but the huge side benefit is that the free porn comes in faster as well.

 

Distle, thanks man, great stuff, really appreciate the sharing. Triangle traverse (maybe the one before, the wide crack) was playing horizontal though. Much better than just sitting watching the rain coming down outside like it is right now.

 

Thanks again:
