Woooah didn't expect to see tradprincess out with the wideboyz. Sick video!
It's a belaytionship made in heaven!
Ah man I really wanted to see how Tom pulled through that roof but it cut away!
Those walls are unbelieveably beautiful!
Big fan of everyone involved here. I've learned so much about crack climbing from following you three (mostly separately), so this is an extra fresh breath of air from sheltering in place. Thank you!
It doesn't get any better; Wide Boyz, Trad P, awesome looking route (how long does that massive wedged block sit there for?), great scenery, fab sound track. What's out there for the climber with more modest ambitions?
Instant classic!
That was awesome!
This is awesome!
Brilliant editing, great music!
Hell yeah, I thought I knew that road! 😁 damn I've looked at those cracks many times and only been able to dream haha.
That "mental block" looks wedged in there as good as one of my dmm offsets.
Cool video! Loved the music selection!
the music was so good youtube put this on a playlist for me with a bunch of music videos
Sick video! Would have been rad to hear some more about the route, like maybe the grade, what the crux is like, when the FA was and who did it... that sort of thing. Stuck in Australia I haven't had the chance to head out to hit these style of sweet desert cracks, and it'd be rad to learn more about them!
Awesome! :) there is already a great video about all that and more! Google kill artist pam pack.
esta muy bien poder ver a los cámaras haciendo su trabajo! lo dan todo!
This video is badass!
nice mellow 5.11...
Rad!
🙏🙏🙏
i love how someone actually cut that bolt that shanti pack placed.
It's her route and she decided to place a bolt, for good reason IMO. Removing it is just arrogant and disrespectful. These stupid fights over protection are as old as climbing itself, but still not cool.
Princess, hope you are back into videos, soon!
I'd be scared to climb underneath that block, let alone crank on it. Good on these boys to find another (better?) solution to it by stemming rather than inverting as Pamela did. Respect to both the FA and the second ascent. Of course the same section of rock can be wildly different in difficulty depending upon the climber's choices. Sometimes something as basic as which side of the crack you face can make something way harder or easier. Nowadays I'd probably levitate to avoid doing a 5.7 lieback. LOL
what a strange comments section. Post the crux sequence! great video!
Crux sequence is on there and not cut 🤷♀️ it's just not as dramatic as the other version
@@tradprincess I was just wondering how did he get from straddling the block to the right crack? thats what looked like the trouble on that sequence. No jams higher up on left crack, right foot in bottom of right crack, looks like a desperate search for something on the inside face, cant stuff arm deeper in because left hand limits movement, how to pull over right @4:42 ??? maybe not that exciting but if it was just like l layback or a little friction hold and he was able to let go with left and stand up, still interesting to see and compare. but it cuts to drone footy and tom describing to pete how to do it. Looks like hes pointing to something on the corner of the block but rewinding, theres no obvious hold at all!
bolt is gone?
I did realize it too... seems like the bolt is gone.
That’s a good chunk of change on all those caming devices , extremely pretty though

I love climbing off-widths. And also, I hate climbing off-widths.
Takes me about 6 months to go from I will NEVER climb another OW Ever Again to Ah wasn't so bad, just had an off-day. If I just climb smooth and confident I won't get all bent and start thrashing.
Half an hour later I'm all scratched up and panting, switching between strenuous rests and more strenuous thrashing, gaining a few inches at a time, and losing skin. Cursing my partner for suggesting it. Cursing the ant on my nose, unable to free an arm to swipe it away. Cursing the crack, the earth, the sky. Wondering if I'm going to puke this time. Right back to NEVER AGAIN!
good times
Can someone who can do only 10 pulls ups do this?
Sure, if that someone is a really good climber.
Interesting view on a more egalitarian variation. Congrats. Was the spice girls duet at the high point you got to?Hopefully you can come back and try the crux and the rest of the route.
The 3rd pitch is where I dipped out and went home. They continued up up up... now if you are going to bring up the dumpster fire that is the USA offwidth scene to a video about people getting out and having fun I think you are in the wrong place. There are forums for what you wish to argue about. 💁♀️
awesome place!!! you have the means; try to improve your editing.
Will do!!! Learning constantly!
What a comment!?! Try constructive criticism; you have the means.
TheNeatWhale I assume it was some sort of relatively easy compression sequence between the two edges of the crack, he was already stood fairly high up into the part where Pamela jammed her foot for the invert move.
The biggest downgrade EVER?
Pamela had a better beta. But it looks like the bolt is gone.
I guess if you think making a 10+ move into a 13+ move then sure it's better beta. 😄
@@tradprincess Best reply ever...lol
what a horrible thing to be called the WIDE BOYZ...but nice pictures and quite sure you had a good time (i.e. sarcasm, ...oh gosh, sarcastically I meant the good time part since it was really a beautiful video to watch, and horrifying at the same time). And FYI - friends don't let friends climb slab (tee shirt from Smith Rock in the 80's)...or off width (prime directive of any sensible person or tee shirt since chimpanzees)...dummies
I can't stand the term trad. There's sport routes and there's gear routes.
