Part 1 of a five part doco on Dean Potter. Pretty good, if a little sensationalist. Follow the links on the side to view the rest. There are some pretty old skool kool climbers in this one too....
At the start it says "Onsight Attempts". Can someone explain to me how the draws got there and how its an onsight if the draws are already there? I thought maybe it was a route with fixed draws but then he put a draw on one of the other routes.
Also - Anyone else catch the Dolby logo at the bottom of the route he attempts last?
All round nice guy Tim Emmett on a couple of routes in Pembroke, South Wales. He's just successfully led the second route and gives it E10 6c. Nice video with a good vibe.
