BD Athlete Hazel Findlay: Tainted Love

BD Athlete Hazel Findlay is known for her rad trad ability, whether she’s freeing El Cap or climbing crumbly sea-cliffs with sparse protection. When she arrived in Squamish last summer, a friend and fellow Brit knew just the route she should try. Perched precariously at the very top of the Chief, a bold stemming corner protected with little more than micro stoppers still awaited a first ascent. Watch Hazel get down to business and gun for the FA of Tainted Love (5.13d).

3:41 That loud exhale of breath and sense of relief had me thinking she was about to top it out....then the camera steps back....nope. Only half way there. What a strong woman. Go Hazel. You're amazing.

[@monkeygrp]

I think you have become a legend

[@qnko9s]

watching this gives me butterflies in my stomach, it's almost like I need to keep my composure till the end of the video. Awesome stuff!

[@qnko9s]

@@KestonMoore it's nice, but I am a bit disappointed there was no base jump or highlining after the climb. But keep it up, you will get there. May just a suggestion - trim the volume of the music at certain parts, as it is quite loud compared to the voice. (also sorry if I sound very aggressive, it is hard to show intonation and intentions over the internet - the video really wasn't what I expected :))

[@mandisaeteun9251]

Hell yes Hazel! 🤘🏻❤️

Too much cutting...just show the whole climb, it's not that long!

[@denisng7423]

Thank you... I'm not the only one.

[@olliebarker9979]

Second this. Ruins the atmosphere when it keeps jumping around.

[@Rickswars]

just stfu and don\t comment negativity!!!

[@peteranelson]

@@Rickswars hey! it's a legitimate complaint...

[@wombra8314]

Peter Nelson yussss legit complaint for ALLLLLLLLLLL these freakin overdramatic vids lol

[@carlosvg1480]

I know is not the point of the video, but us regular climbers could learn A TON from this if not for the constant cuts... Very cool climb all the same. Corners are rad!

13d trad! Such a babe!

[@mr.schoko8032]

Nice job! Hazel should try changing corners on the nose that would be awesome!

[@DrFumesta]

i doubt she can, hence why she hasn't tried

[@dexter3596]

@@DrFumesta Nah, she can 100% do that

[@apostatepaul]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@RemingtonBurner]

When I climb and I think there are no holds then I see this.😂

[@user-mb4vc5xv8q]

Oh my god

[@albourak739]

رائعة جدا برشاقتك وخفتك ...👍👍👍👍

[@GuinessOriginal]

Hazel doesn't have to look good while she climbs, but she does anyway, just in case. What a girl

[@bodawes6050]

Love hazel and her accent.

[@ficklemedia8733]

I really enjoyed this but surely it could have been longer. Why not make a 15 or 20 min film out of this?

[@stubbles]

Thumbs up for Ding Dong!

[@12dougmain]

Anyone notice the highline at the very end!?

[@alexandermarkweber1814]

Is there a known line that goes there? I'm getting confused as to where this is exactly. Bonus points if someone knows the name of the line.

[@AdamBoulianne]

@@alexandermarkweber1814 It's on the north wall, just left of North Star. On the opposite side Angel's Crest

[@HeiLong24]

owwwww

[@terraflow__bryanburdo4547]

Hard trad is all about the masochism.

[@maxrav1831]

It's like tomb raider 2030

[@estebanballester6708]

Nice Helmet!

[@BerndThomasSchuller]

LOL. To be fair, the risk seems fairly low here...

[@valaudae1809]

Unwatchable. What makes the film editor think that constant changes of camera angle and viewpoint add to viewer enjoyment. This technique is commonly used on the boobtube and is an acknowledgement that the audience is not very bright and has a short attention span. Does not reflect well on Hazel or Black Diamond.

No ni na entrena mas para esas vias 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🖕🏻
