    It was your videos that inspired me to pick up my cam again after many years and started to get into filming instead of photographing the forest. And you keep getting better! Loved the calmer vibe and the little storytelling.
    Also, saying you looked at the "easier 7s" and then showing Le Cœur was kinda harsh, but I get it. Have you tried climbing it being small? Yeah... anyways, cheers guys!

    • @WEDGECLIMBING
      @WEDGECLIMBING  2 місяці тому

    for outdoors bouldering and asthetics Wedge is by far the most enjoyable to watch. climbing is portrayed the way how climbers see it and feel about climbing.

    Another amazing Wedge video. Just curious, are the bouldering ethics mentioned at the end Font-specific? Most of them are generally good guidelines but I've never heard of the no bouldering after dark ethic.

    • @WEDGECLIMBING
      @WEDGECLIMBING  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks! That list is a font specific list, like you say most of them apply in most areas, but the no night climbing is specific to font. Although there are some other areas where it applies, I think Albarracin is the same

      @@WEDGECLIMBING For sure! Here in Montana, USA, night climbing is the only way to really project during the summer. Makes sense in areas where the impact to the local wildlife would be more substantial.

    5:06 - This is exactly why star ratings for climbs are stupid and should be discontinued. It's far too subjective. Many of my favourite boulders or routes are un-starred. It's just the guide maker's opinion. It can also do damage by inflating traffic to specific areas, potentially speeding up degredation of that rock or the surrounding area. I really think its dumb.

    • @WEDGECLIMBING
      @WEDGECLIMBING  2 місяці тому

      I know what you mean, it's far from a perfect system. But it can be useful when visiting new areas I suppose
