Got to sit and chat with Jacopo for a solid half hour at Acephale in Canmore a couple years ago. Not only is he one of the all time greatest trad climbers, he's also easily one of the kindest, most genuine people in the sport. Fantastic film!
Nothing but respect. They seem like the most humble people you have ever met. I love this stuff. It actually makes me feel better just watching. I only climbed once with an instructor friend and his wife at Joshua Tree. But I fell in love with the feeling, the vibe, the energy. It always feels good to confront our fears. In a smart way. They let me pull protection on the way down. That was very cool, the clickety-clack of the growing protection around your waist. There is saying, you know. 'You meet the nicest people in the mountains.' I have found this to be true in my own life, while hiking in Yosemite. Why do you think that might be?
Man, this was a beautiful experience. Thanks for such gorgeous cinematography and storytelling! Feeling very blessed to have the valley so close to home
Great film! Really enjoyed how much the process was highlighted and that proper props were given to Beth. p.s. those weren't portra photographs...come on guys😛
I was just listening to an interview with Lynn Hill where she was talking about guys making excuses about hand size when she freed the nose. Seems to be an easy way to dismiss their accomplishments
The lying back is one thing, but a jumar? 🤔 I maybe to be able to help him pull back up better. EDIT: Oh, just got to the actual timestamp.. yikes And to put such cinematic emphasis on it 😅
Sounds like this was filmed before she sent (Oct 2023). Since this video came out in March 2024, would be nice to at least have added a footnote or something

Canmore is my favorite place❤ Nice climbing at Grassi Lakes!
Love the shots of the gear placements!
seems under-appreciated in general, but for Meltdown in particular it is so clutch!

Phenomenal cinematography, phenomenal climbing!! Beth sent stuff that was on another planet! Awesome to see hard trad so well done.

Crazy climb! Also crazy listening to teeth on the metal biners
Very good immersive video 👍, I felt pumpy at the end 😂
Hands sweating. Amazing repeat! Had no idea since 2008. Brava Beth!
Love this! Great shots and great to see the fight at the end! We've all been there with the foot slip on a redpoint 😅
GG Jacopo, amazing effort. Thanks, helps a lot!
This is such an amazing video. I love it so much. Incredible job on that 14c

Mamma mia Jacopo che sudata di mani mi son fatto per il nuts ! Bravo e sempre forte !
TRAD REVIVAL ⚔️
Great send, really well filmed and edited!
Very beautiful, would love to go some day :)
Great film. Getting me stoked for Valley season real soon!
👍👌🌳🌲🏔💚🏃♂️🎬 love the north face trail
Great filmography! 👍🏼
Awesome senda Jacopo!!! Congrats
Great places and great climbing
Did he really figure 8 a rope directly to a hanger at 11:24???!!
But why?
fixed rap line? not ideal but the odds of disaster are pretty low...and pretty commonplace
18:39 stopper knot?
He seems a very calm person, an his tactics are very good... duck tape on the pants🤯
love it!
if someone can tell me what song is at 1:42 (intro) i will love you forever
8:03 "kann nimmer stehn auf dem scheißdreck" haha gute übersetzung aber
Love for you ❤
very nice!
The duct tape was such a good homage.
oh hell yeah
Do you guys say Yosemite or Yosemite?
11'30" he was tying the rope into a sharp hanger?
Beth is all “I don’t climb that hard” ok sure 😂
your a ledgend Jacopo
I think wearing two different climbing shoes would drive me nuts
Does anyone know what trousers he is wearing on his ascent?
Bellissimo
Epic
Wanted to watch but the background music was too grating!

"Everything that is something is done in Yosemite"
Yeeea ok, I'm gonna have to disagree on that one haha
😍😍😍
Probable 5.14d?
All I know is that I watched a video with Babsi's boyfriend in it. Couldn't tell you his name though😂
I was waiting for this comment ;-)
The double gaston move is called a speculum if you didn't know.
How's that DEI coming along 😂
please hire a sound guy to mix it sounds really bad. A sound guy is really not the most expensive part of video production.
Beth Rodden has to be one of the best climbers ever
7:04 that belay technique 😬
The lying back is one thing, but a jumar? 🤔
I maybe to be able to help him pull back up better.
EDIT:
Oh, just got to the actual timestamp.. yikes
And to put such cinematic emphasis on it 😅
it's toprope, chill out
5.7 climbers calling out the pros!
I don't care if it's TR or not, never let go of the brake hand.
dab? 16:16
Came looking for this comment. Wasn't disappointed.
Watching on 0.25x doesn't look like he actually step on the gear but rather just besides it
@@_jpfq_ Agreed. He smeared the draw, but I don't see that as any different than the wall. All his weight was still on his other foot.
yall climbers are crazy lol but like the good kind I think
I don't like anything about trad...but this was freaking awesome!
Babsi also sent. But I guess if you're not a North Face athlete...
Sounds like this was filmed before she sent (Oct 2023). Since this video came out in March 2024, would be nice to at least have added a footnote or something
Stefanos litle bro is good on trad 😂
What do you make your products out of? What do you use to ship your products all over the world? Hypocrisy
Boycott NorthFace.
What'd they do?
@@ayuminorembarked in the white privilege bandwagon
Woke company
I highly recommend being awake instead of being asleep when you climb hard routes! Good to know north face is on the same page!
Bro what does that even mean?
I now support north face exclusively because they pissed you off
Loser company. Go broke you lads. Why don't you just promote climbing as is? Just climb. No matter who you are or what you claim. Just get to the top.
I just wish there was a clothing manufacturer that could fuse adventure with DEI initiatives. If only………
