    Isn't it cool to see these moves close up?! WOWOW
    I didn't get to play on JDI as much as I maybe would've liked, but only because this spring season I was really hyped about climbing a variety of routes at the park rather than focusing in on one singular project! I ended up having my best climbing season to date (highlights include sending a 5.14a in 6 goes, and another (scary) 14a in just a weeks time!)
    I was incredibly grateful that Zech was free to film me on one of my last days at Smith, not only so I could have my beta recorded to look over this summer, but also to remember this beautiful moment in the projecting process. That special time when expectations haven't destroyed the joy of baby steps. Maybe the more I remember this, the higher percentage of my projecting process can be this exciting and joyful! It's a journey I'm happy to be on, and to share with y'all as well!

    It's crazy how small beta changes can make such a massive difference! Can't wait to see you send this, you're gonna crush it!

    I relate so much to the nervous/happy vibe you have in this. It's one of those videos you probably watch again later and go ''why was I saying so much BS and making goofy sounds'' hahahaha. The wall does weird things to us, I absolutely love it. That special state where you're not feeling the fear in a ''scared'' way but in a ''nervous'' way, and you laugh maniacally through the learning process. It's so hard to describe to people who haven't felt it, but I usually just send them your videos.

    • @AnnaHazelnutt
      @AnnaHazelnutt  17 днів тому +9

      😂🙏🏽 perfectly described hahaa. Yeah I love the spring phase of finding a project. Everything is new and exciting and I get pretty happy and manic on the wall

    I remember asking for this, but I definitely didn't expect it. It's nice to see a video of someone working on this who isn't Ondra or Sharma.

    First and foremost : This is an AMAZING view of Smith! Second : Projecting 5.14c is words unspoken! To see you play and enjoy yourself on this climb makes me so happy!! I can't wait to see you link all of this together! Keep pushing Anna :)

    You're goes are super impressive! The camera doesn't appreciate how steep that wall is and then those holds look tiny. I've walked by that climb so many times and it's cool to finally see the holds up close. STRONG WORK ANNA! Next go for sure. And damn, Ondra's onsite is just super impressive of that thing too. JEEEBUS.

    • @AnnaHazelnutt
      @AnnaHazelnutt  11 днів тому +1

      Aww thank you!! Omg right!? His onsite is WILD after being up there. So so impressive. Yeah I feel like it’s hard to understand how overhung the wall is until you’re climbing it 😂

    Punter tip: If you want to know the overhang angle of a section, instead of measuring individual rock angles, position the phone on the rope between QDs, and that gives you the angle of that section (roughly).

    You’re climbing like an animal Anna. You really look close on this one, I think closer than you think. So I’ve a serious question, get this under your belt, pick one that suits you, how long before you’re projecting your first 9A? How big of a jump is that?

    • @AnnaHazelnutt

    hi Anna
    i ve been watching your videos for a few months now and i like slabs also because of you. You are very good at it :)
    I was watching this video, but i couldn't help it, but to stop. It was cuz of the swearing. Don't get me wrong...i swear my self, but you have a big following and you are a role model and inspiration to us grown ups, but, i m sure, to young girls and boys also. I don't mean (at all) to patronize you :) Only to ask if you could turn it down a touch :)
    thank you
    ciao :)

    • @AnnaHazelnutt
      @AnnaHazelnutt  8 днів тому

      I totally understand, but as a person who is also an adult in this world, I do swear quite a bit, especially when trying this hard and out of my comfort zone. Luckily, not everyone has to watch my videos, and my videos aren't for everyone. I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't put on a fake personality for UA-cam, and even if it means being a "bad role model," at least it's my true self haha. Feel free to skip any videos where I swear too much 🙏🏽

    • @bellaraga624
      @bellaraga624 8 днів тому

      I ll happily keep on watching your videos as I do find them good and will skip if I don't feel them :)
      Have a nice day and best of things for your new projects
      Ciao
