My Greatest FREE SOLO Climbing Experience
Вставка

- My hardest free solo climb so far!
A few weeks ago I climbed this route with a climbing partner and I was so amazed by the rock quality and the exposure that I told myself " I'm gonna free solo that one day".
And soon after that I got the itch and I really wanted to do it already. I was feeling confident, so I packed my bag and did it the next day.
It was such an insane experience, and the fog/wind made it so much more epic and extreme.
I'm thankful for the experience and looking forward to new adventures!
Route info: Štruca - Pesem ptic trnovk, 160m, V+
DO NOT TRY TO RECREATE ANYTHING YOU SEE IN THE VIDEO!
I am a trained professional, and I do not recommend free soloing to anyone.

good thing he has a helmet
Fr just in case he fell and hit a rock
Its there in case rocks fall from above
Helmet will save you!
Bad thing is if he slips he still is dead
He has wings.. relax
Amazing climb! Take care dude and stay within your limits! Cheers
Thank you brother. Cheers!
@@andrazegart I had a friend , with a higher level than you, Who made free solo like this one.
He’s dead.
Stop it, it’s idiot. You’re not Honnold.
@@andrazegart such an impressive climb. defintely stay within your limits and if you don't feel confident about anything don't do it! you're amazing
@@andrazegart please be safe bro
Definitely Awesome Climbing but friction climbing with all that moisture around as a new best, yikes. Way sketchier.
I’m deeply appreciative that you took me on an adventure that I lack the skills or even bravery to ever do myself! Thank you!❤
Thank you for watching 🙏😊
Felt a chill down my spine around 11+mins when you looked around and mentioned the exposure 🥶 I can feel the sweat on my palms just from watching your pov hahaha
My palms get so freaking sweaty watching these videos man, holy crap. Great job
Beautiful rock. Love the almost tubular stretches. Nice solid climbing gets you there every time. Awesome.
Great video mate! Im glad you made it! Stay safe! Best regards from Poland.
Thank you! Greetings from Slovenia!
The balls that you have! Awesome man, what a great video. Even I was nervous and I'm sitting in the comfort in my office, supposed to be working but I can't stop watching. 👍
I love how skilled, aware and brave you are in all of your adventures. It’s awesome to see someone young go out and have incredible experiences, so awesome to watch. Stay safe out there ☺️🤙
Thank you!
I really appreciate the kind words 🙏
@@andrazegart
Nice climbing but stop this shit before it stops you.
This is a sport. Sports aren't about bravery or risk taking, they are about performance. You can push your performance to the limits also with safety ropes. Any doctor would agree that doing this is simply irresponsible.
@@lantosposta You arent too intelligent
@@Decepticon123 Bro do not tell him what to do. I admit it is very dangerous but surely he is exeprienced enough and knows the risks
Fantastic effort and you so obviously enjoyed all of it too. Inspirational, keep going, keep safe!
Thank you for the kind words! 🙏
This video is incredible ! Thank you for the emotions.. but please, be careful bro 🙏🏻
You’re an amazing, skilled, and brave adventurer! Keep safe and have a long, amazing journey!
Thank you my friend ❤️
I was on edge the whole time , especially the 5th pitch 😂 too dangerous for my blood . I’m happy you made it safe! Weh!!!
What a beautiful route I like those what’re grooves!
I hope everything is ok for you because of the floods in Slovenia!
Thank you :)
In my area we were lucky enough to avoid the floods because we live in the mountains.
But in other lower areas there are lots of people who lost everything :(
Don't know anything about climbing but this is the first video I found of yours and I'm looking forward to watching many more. Love your vlogging style approach, very enjoyable to watch! (also super impressive climbing skills)
Thank you brother! I really appreciate that 😊🙏
@@andrazegart I also just had my first climbing lesson yesterday so thanks for the inspiration 😅
Good work mate! A very bold solo to be sure!!! I am sure you would love the climbing here in the Canadian Rockies. ..maybe someday you will make it to this part of the world - stay safe!!!
Oh my gush! Bro, you're really brave, thank you for amazing video! Good luck!
Thank you very very much!
You deserve way more views for this crazy shit, true athlete
I appreciate that!
Bro you are insane(ly talented) just stay safe - subscribed!@@andrazegart
What's absolutely wild about this video is that the first shot of the route makes it look like a hill, but once you start climbing you can really see how misleading it is. You have my undying respect Andraz! Salute!
Freakin awesome dude! What a feeling, rock looks sweet!
Thank you brother!
What a beautiful place! And amazing climb, lad!
Awesome to watch! Stay safe out there❤
Super ballsy! Congrats, great job
congratulations bro, really looked like a lot of fun, scary fun. pls stay alive :)
Thank you brother! ❤️
What a perfect route to do this on, thank you for giving us the pleasure brother 🙏
Those were exactly my thoughts when I first climbed that route :)
Thank you 😄
Just watching the video and I thought this video must of had more than 500k or 1m views but I look at the views and Im shocked you deserve more views, I wish you luck on the rest of your adventures
That fourth and fifth pitch was SKETCHYYYY! Had my jaw open for a good two minutes. Congrats on the climb though!
Appreciate it brotha 🙌
Congrats bro! 💪😎👍
Such a beautiful climb. Was getting worried about it starting to rain. Stay safe
Thank you!
It was just some fog, so no danger of raining :)
Amazing! Cool, calm and collected! Congrat's!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow this is insane, amazing!
Good job, dude. Stay safe out there.
Thanks, you too!
Thanks for sharing your adventure for the guy that doesn't have the balls to physically attempt such a beautiful feat. I think there's still hope for me.💪😎👍
Keep doing what you enjoy...becareful..consider your limitations in terms of ability...and above all be positive and confident .
Life is about your choices remember that 👍👍
Momak, ti si lud. Skidam kapu, svaka čast! Odradio si to unatoč lošima uvjetima (mokra stijena, hladan zrak, vjetar...). Bravo!
Hvalaa! 🙏
Pozdrav iz Slovenije!
It baffles me how much courage it takes to do that, after watching dawn wall and free solo i am left in awe at this sport, good on you for doing something you love even if it may be incredibly dangerous, the experience and skill is absolutley astonishing. I salute you
Thank you very much my friend 🙏😊
That rock looks so solid. Well done! That's probably about the limit I would ever consider soloing.
Yup! As good as it gets here in Slovenia… everything else is mostly just rubble hahah.
amazing climbing, i love your videos man !!!!
Thank you brother! 🙏
Man those traverses during the 11:00+ times had me sweating. Awesome job and beautiful climb!
They look harder than 5+
Thank you! 🙏
Oh man that's some clean rock. Looks like such a nice climb. Great way to forget about the world for a bit😊
you need JEsus
Amazing climb my man. You deserve more attention. Take care
Thank you my friend! ❤️
That route looks so insanely fun
Maaaaaaaaaaan, it was so dangerous, but you stayed so calm throughout the climb. Respect!
I feel dizzy watching this from my bed
Thank you brother!
Greetings from Slovenia.
You just insane! I wish I had your courage!
You guys are amazing!

Thank you, I will
What a video! Whew! Kudos to you sir 👏🏾🫡
Thank you brother! 🙏 much appreciated 😊
Great job man! Stay safe!
Thanks mate, you too 🙏
Great composure, good to hear you chatting to yourself on individual pitches. Would love to have seen drone footage of that ascent, I've captured GoPro climbing footage myself and though decent it never really captures the true intensity/scale of a climb.
Thank you!
It would be cool to see drone footage of it, but I don’t think drones belong in the mountains.
Nice , go steady dude
That was wild, I was sketched out just watching. that second to last pitch had my hands sweating
How does he go down?
Okay i watched the whole video now gaha
WELL DONE, you made it look easy
Impressed you finished the climb with those enormous balls weighing you down. Well done!
Hahaha thanks! :)
Wow you had me on the edge of my seat.If you ever come to Squamish BC let me know, i have a place for you to stay. Be safe brother.
great climb! stay safe into comfortable limits :)
Thank you, will do :)
Even watching is scary, imagine being there. Props Andraz! And please, take care!
Thank you 🙏
Greetings from Slovenia!
@@andrazegart greetings from Portugal ❤️
Wow I’m impressed with your great work respect and stay safe out there 😂
Thank you very much! ❤️
man i love your videos! epic
Thank you :)
This is outrageous!
Absolutely amazing, I have so much more respect for people able to do this after trying rock climbing myself, extremely tiring sport and really felt it in my arms
Thank you!
Did you enjoy the climbing?
Super sick dude you're an inspiration
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
Very Nice vidéo
You are strong and brave
Thanks for your sharing
Take care of You
Just subbed to your channel. Epic climbing mate!
Much appreciated!

Thank you!
don't take this walk for granted. stay safe my dude.
That was FANTASTIC.
Thanks :)
My palms are sweating watching this. Wow!!!
one of the coolest youtube videos ive ever watched
Thank you! :)
this is one of the most dangerous videos i´ve ever seen in my life on youtube.. what a huge mentality to climb solo
Sick, dude! Love it!
Thank you!
Stay safe out there friend !
Thank you brother!
Oh my god! That was amazing!
Thank you!
Great climb, really insipred me to climb more and maybe try out a very easy line. Will see if i get to it tho, need to trust my feet more!
Greetings from Bulgaria
Thank you!
But I don’t recommend free soloing to anyone! I hope you do it in a safe way
Nice one. Thos water runnels in Limestone can be a real buzz. Lot's of that stuff in Catalunya too. Stay safe dude... xxx ;-)
It`s the best i have ever see. Thanks for amazing 16 minutes
Thank you man, really appreciate it 🙏
Man, be safe and keep focus on every (!) move. Develop your deep inside focus and patience. Also, seems like you are always boosting speed in the end of the route, maybe you should think about it and control your desire to finish. We all understand what a great inspiration is Alex Honnold and other unique climbers, but his is so damn accurate and he is always moving with a stable speed and every move focus. Maybe you wanted to finish faster because of the wind and cold, but still, the cost of any possible mistake is critical. Good luck.
Great video, thanks
You da man. Nice work.
absolutely insane, i wouldn’t do it but i enjoyed watching
Thank you!
Nice one stay safe mate!!!
Thanks, you too!
Dude, you just climbed that route once and free solo'd it as your 2nd climb? Brutal!
that is one of the most incredible climbing videos I've ever seen. So chilled about it
Thank you brother, I really appreciate it 🙏😊
Stay safe bro :>@@andrazegart
Awesome climbing!

Thank you brother!
Cheers from Slovenia :)
dude you are insane. stay safe
Thank you my friend!
Beautiful climb ♥
My man you are crazy! 😂😂 well done dude
Thank you brother!
Drzen si! Pazi nase! Srečno!
Hvala :)
This is just as amazing to me as the thought of flying is :) thanks for taking me on an adventure. My 6 year old son thinks you’re amazing
Thank you, I really appreciate it 😊.
To me it was probably one of the best moments of my entire life 🙂
Greetings to you and your family!
huge respect
Free solo climbing with that weather is just madness, it could have rained at any moment
That's the first thing I thought.
Yeah, hope the guy learns from this comment
@@Gjudxdkjyzddhjnr7091 this guy doesn’t seem to have enough real mountain experience and he’s not even so skilled as a climber. Yes, I think he has much to learn.
@@iosonoleggendo correct me if I'm wrong but it feels like one should be pretty confident with the route and moves before going for a free solo. In several places he was feeling around trying to find the right moves and how to advance. Like grabbing a hold, then bailing on that, grabbing another hold, then bailing on that too, then going back to the original hold before using a third one to actually do the move.
You ever heard of fog?
You know, when it's a perfectly sunny day, and fog rises from the valley...
Well spoiler alert... it can't rain from fog.
And guess what. Weather forecast also exists, where you can actually see if it will rain or not.
And don't you think I checked the weather at least 10 times in the upcoming days before the climb?
The route was levels below my max. My max is 7c, this route was a V+.
I've climbed hundreds of long trad/alpine routes, and this free solo was safer than any kind of climbing in loose rock with a rope.
But all you think is "rope means security"... Which in fact is sometimes the opposite.
Well done mate!!!
Thank you my friend!
mans casually stepping on a 90° surface like gravity doesn't exist for him
Grande! you are rocking 🤟🏼
You are!
