Learning to Crack Climb on Cruel Sister at Smith Rocks, OR (Video Gold!)

- I can't identify exactly why but I absolutely love this video. It certainly lacks some elements I like to see in a video. Maybe it's because while I always felt in control, I'm working the whole time. Maybe it's because I actually rested within a proper hand/foot jam. I still don't know why but I love it.

Love the sound of the equipment
The best amateur video of a lead I have seen.
If you haven’t been on them, Spooky Nook has three manufactured cracks on auto belays. Fist, hand, and finger. Running laps on those builds good technique and endurance.
Great lead! well done, and you are looking solid on the cracks.
Good job man. Gear looked good and so did your climbing
Hey! I really appreciate the MP links in the description for your videos!
Dude!!!!!!!!! That was awesome!!!!!!!!
Sitting here watching you climb what looks like a beautiful crack, is really something to behold! Great send, much respect, awesome job! Thanks so much! 66carpenter climb on!
Awesome man!! Great work
Great video mate, gear looked bomber a d looked like a great climb. Thanks for the video
a lot of the gear was terrible? especially towards the top. those .75s or so tipped out buddy
Good climbing, you earned a cake after that one!
The video is very calming! Maybe that's why we all enjoy it! Another great First Person Beta, 💪🧗♂️
That was great. Solid crack climbing. Pretty intimidating honestly.
14:26 hate when that shit happens lol. love the vid man!
Nice, gettin better for sure
This looks so much fun
I belayed the first ascent of this crack. Mike Seeley was and is a very unheralded rock climber. He led without hesitation or difficulty what is probably the best crack that I ever encountered.
Really cool looking crack!
damn dude very nice work
The PUMP in your veins at 14:44 ..... Yeah Buddy!!!!
No music. I love it.
Fuck yeah! Nice job, I could taste those holds and the gear placements made me happy. Amazing first person.
I misread the title as 'Learning to Rock Climb on Cruel Sister'.... I watched for a bit and thought... Fucking hell mate, starting at the deep end aren't you? Then I realised he was good... Then I re-read the title.
So amazing climbing!!
What was blurred for a bit when you were looking down?
great video, but I looked at the belayer at 0:18 and thought "that guy looks high af, I'd think twice before having him belay me.." but maybe that's his usual expression.. :-)
I thought the same thing hahah.
WTF? did they blur his face out because of the comments?
@@tectonicD They sure did.
xzysyndrome hahaha.....I guess it’s true what they say about strong weed making a person really paranoid. What do they think the belaying police are gonna come after them?🤪🤣🥳
He's one of the best climbers out here. Cool as a fan and nice as hell.
So sick!!
Nice send!
very strong sir
Very pretty crack.
Nice!
How do you like the Katanas? And would you recommend them or do you have a shoe you like more (for general climbing not any specific type of climbing).
I'm definitely liking them thus far for all around climbing. Little narrow towards the front of my foot but otherwise very comfortable.
So why the dude fuzzed out? Witness protection?!? 😂
Scott Morgen he went overboard with the blurring
LOL.... Seth you can place your feet in cracks as well, much easier than edging 5.11 thin edges.
Challenge accepted!
Great video! I felt like I was climbing this myself. The guy with the blurred out face looks so stoned!
For a beginner like myself, can you explain why you put the two quick draws on the two anchors up top? I'm assuming it's for safety in case of a failure? But an explanation and perhaps If it's called something I can watch videos on it. Thank you
He did that so his draws would take the wear when his buddies followed up after him. This is good practice when you are climbing outdoors. If the video had been longer you would have seen him clip into his own draws and out of the anchors. Eventually the last person will clip back into the anchors and either rappel or lower to the ground, but until that last person you will lower from your own gear to preserve the fixed gear.
@Jay there was no edge/lip to protect against in this case but still a good thing to be in the habit of doing.
What was blurred out at 10:37? I thought something was taking a peak outside but it doesn't seem like that cause the dot moves everywhere.
awesomevideo , one of the best !!
Also, please, please continue videos WITHOUT music !!!!
09:11 Haha, that's how I climb.
2:18 textbook bomber
2:58 textbook shitty placement. Wouldn't fall on that
@@orosenberg totem dude
Good job
O.k it was not easy ,but first time you has had a control . Good job boy.
😱👏
kepp your videos without music !! i just dont understand that trend to put loud music on any videos !
Why did you put quick draws on the anchors at the end?
To secure the anchor because other people are going to do the same route but top rope.
If you climb only on two points, it better be really secure.
If the rope is rubbing on those fixed caribeeners it slowly wears it down over time. It’s just good practice to put that wear and tear on your own gear that’s easier to replace
totems......
thumb pumpppp
It's interesting to see so much more chalk on the rock since we climbed Smith during the early 80's
Why the f is it interesting
Might want to keep some better tabs on that blurring, if you're gonna do it at all. Like blurring tats as well as faces, and blurring faces every time
It's because you are a machine. If in WA anytime and need a belay let me know.
not to mention the aesthetic quality of the rock and crack itself is very pleasing...
There's a point where you are going to have to stop calling this videos "learning to crack climb" when will you be a qualified crack climber?👊
yeah but do you ever really stop learning to crack climb...? LOL
@@VickySmalls notorious v.i.c didnt you write 10 crack environments?
@@jahwnkoffee6368 I did, not my good sir
@Jay What's wrong with his placements ?
@Jay well he hasn't died yet so it's probably fine
thank you for not top roping on the fixed gear, an increasing problem at smith
Really! I have seen two severe accidents in the Lower Gorge from this issue. Anchor rips out and climber falls. Basalt ain't a pillow landing.
Robert Hunt
An increasing problem everywhere. Even down here in Georgia
If my belayer isn't stoned there's a problem.
I thought this was going to be sexy story about a guy and his step-sister.....This was cool too though.
alex honnold says hold my beer
Imagine when you climb there is earthquake that moves the wall and crush ur hand, holding with excruciating pain for your life lol
Dude you missed so many of the good jams and places you can step outside of the crack that it's a wonder that you made it. Nice to be young and strong. Also if you just racked your cams with draws already on them you'd spend a lot less time farting around up there.
OMG, where I’m from wearing these gloves is aid climbing. Just sayin
What drives people up the rocks? Shitty life, lack of love, adrenaline? The last one is killing you for that matter.. Why not just enjoy every second of your existence without putting your meat suit at risk?
You must live quite the life 😂
For people who don’t climb, it’s kinda like playing football or any other sport. It’s just fun. Also, I never get an adrenaline rush when climbing. It’s not that exciting after you do it like 4x a week. I would only get an adrenaline rush if I’m scared and about 95% of the time I’m not scared.
We are all living to die. Might as well do something in the mean time. Also, life isn’t shitty and this is love when hands are on granite, Sally.
pretty sure u are a fatty kid without goals in your life... That should explain why u post this shit on the internet yisus..
dude was puuuuuumpppedt! Nice send. whats the grade?
Man, I did that as a warm-up with maybe three 5.8 cracks under my belt. I whipped a few times and lost a shit load of knuckle skin! I learned a lot of shit that day.
