Hazel Findlay & Will Stanhope Soloing in Froggat

[@louistheriault3900]

Its funny how all gritstone videos look 10 years older just because of the rock and the weather.

[@DreamzzyGaming]

Im pretty sure this is still a decently old clip, considering hazel's 5.10s

[@HotAches]

yea 2009 I think

[@StoutProper]

Hot Aches Productions what made you dig this little video out! 😂👍

[@H3adl3sschick3n]

Winters coming

[@jmpayne333]

Hazel is insane in the best way possible. I guess all free solo climbers are, but she seems relaxed and at peace when most others seem focused and determined. It’s like her home is the mountains.

[@AmericanTradgety]

Nice soloing and super chill vibes thanks Hot Aches!!!

[@davidsexton6604]

Well done you youngsters , doing solo ! Had me on edge of my seat !

[@patc9102]

Really nice job @hazelfindlay rehearsing the moves.

[@johnpownall1511]

I almost threw up when Hazel let go at around 6:45 :O Just love her! She's the raddest climber out there!

[@mls01981]

I'm still baffled how she manages a no hands rest, but that's why she climbs so hard and I cannot!!!

[@marcchrys]

I'd much rather watch this "real" climbing than beany hatted boulderers grunting and crimping on a V15, above 20 mats and 10 outstretched pairs of hands, with a techno soundtrack

[@ZerolinGD]

what is the first route called that Will fell off?

[@Alan-gi2ku]

So young, so strong so bold and focused.

[@jonathanburton5838]

Nice bit of belaying in the opening shots by Sam!

[@lizarddronedude3617]

RIP Paul Williams

[@lizarddronedude3617]

Whoever liked this respect...

[@bendycard]

@@lizarddronedude3617I remember when he died, there’s was a smiling Paul Williams on the cover of a climbing magazine afterwards, with his socks on underneath his climbing shoes of course. 💐

[@LeCaNiVideos]

Alex Honnold is on such a level that you sometimes forget that there are other top climbers doing sick free soloing. Great video!

[@124Outdoor]

LeCaNiVideos he's the only climber most people have ever heard of. A robot on the rock but a bit dull at parties. 😂

[@urik]

Almost as 90's as 90's climbing vids

[@muscularibuprofen69]

Both have such a nice organic styles to their climbing, and hard as nails...and so nonchalant. Awesome!

[@williamslocum5000]

Anyone know the music at the beginning?

[@cw7469]

Apart from Chequers, there's not much gear on those routes anyway...! You might as well solo. Keen for DHR one day, though not sure I'll be chill enough to take both hands off ;)

[@raularnal1616]

The cap is cool to climb

[@tinkersailorhead4360]

Anyone still climbing the Braille Trail in 2019 ?

[@robertnewell4054]

Appreciate the blues riffs as musical score ...

[@dsenunez]

I just love Hazel climbing style and attitude. How long ago this happened? She is using 5.10 shoes not La Sportiva.

[@HotAches]

I think this was 2009.

[@Dan-lh7hw]

Do you feel that the publicization a free soloing buy some of the more affluent climbers has become almost mandated to keep up with Alex? Maybe there should have been some sort of commentary into what the climbers on-site grades project grades were vs there free solo grades. That way the younger climbers don't get the idea that all pro climbers free solo at their limit.

[@florianfanderl6674]

Good suggestion. This is WAY below their limit.

[@octavia2]

@@florianfanderl6674 Yes, weekend punters have been soloing Downhill Racer on sight for three decades or more, and Brown's Eliminate for over half a century.

[@peterpozman6972]

Affluent? I'd be surprised if there were any affluent climbers. Do you mean influential?

[@willthornton4391]

whats the music ?

[@vazap8662]

Love Hazel. She’s short, like me, and packs a punch!!

[@Rickswars]

Mountain Queen.

[@fredrikehne2273]

good stuff!!

[@lucaswingsuit412]

I love when is looking very skatchy but than they let go both hands hahahahah

[@paulmitchell5349]

Dawes did the moves at 5.01 one handed,and indeed the whole climb,solo.

[@agnome1176]

Such good sounds! The winds and the blues, SWEET (&what plays in my head when Im cordless) I always turn the sound down or off & run my own music when I watch videos. This time::kzbin.info/www/bejne/apqZhpmGltB_rM0 suddenly yours was better than my choice, excellent! Who responsible for the music? & you got the balance & timing of the mix - perfect...Really you need to include more info. All of the names & grades of the climbs & the tech. details.(time of day,temperature/humidity) The film crew, rigging crew, who's work is the editing & sound mix? A professional job, well done, IT deserves, DEMANDS ATTRIBUTION especially if I'm paying, ONE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT, WHERE & WHOSE'S RESPONSIBLE!

[@imscheck]

Removing the crashpad at 04:24 :-)

[@leoingson]

For some reason, that's much more envervating than watching Honnold. In a good way :) And guys, this is how Hazel got such a bold girl, and her perfect foot technique.

[@semmtexx]

To all the fee-soloing haters: if you’ve never done it and never will, you’ll never understand. There are plenty of other videos. Stop shitting on soloists.

[@largeformatlandscape]

Everybody solos, haters just don’t get it

[@lizarddronedude3617]

My level was only HVS/VS but I absolutely loved soloing upto HS often.

[@MrAviad93]

Sad that free soloing is inspiring now...

[@balke7935]

was this the trip when he rearranged Parthian Shot... snd his own arse?

[@semmtexx]

Blake Williams have you climbed Parthian?

[@TesterAnimal1]

semmtexx seems that was a Parthian shot from Blake!

[@balke7935]

I haven’t climbed Parthian shot. Why?

[@YL_AmericadoSul]

I feel sick...

[@lizarddronedude3617]

Q good friend lost his life soloing BrownsEliminate ri p paul

[@Sirskibumsalot]

The crack shot at 3:00 ....👍

[@doctorshawzy6477]

rock cliffs everywhere are defaced by chalk...

[@HotAches]

True. At least chalk mostly washes off in the rain.

[@skp50208]

이게 자랑인가? 언젠가 헌 번 실수로 사라질 수도 있음을... 장래에 우연히 그것을 보게 될지도 모르는 나는 슬퍼해야 할텐데...

[@eagleeye3333]

In slow motion you can see there is something under the trouser...think it is a blue screen hidden toprope....fake like 99% of climbing they look so weak, not in shape, without colour in their face....

[@michelechernega1782]

I always got feeling Hazel was low-ego gal, still appears that way. But can’t say I understand free-soloing, you’re too good of a role model to risk losing. Leave it to Honnold

[@semmtexx]

Michele Chernega ever stop to think that maybe she doesn’t see herself as your personal role model?

[@nicolasjeannet790]

Lol like Honnold is the only free soloist out there

[@michelechernega1782]

@@semmtexx don't be a troll

[@semmtexx]

Michele Chernega don’t be a whiny bitch.

[@StoutProper]

Michele Chernega this was ten years ago... She's been free soloing ever since she was a kid. Think this is well within her capabilities and tbh she's free to do whatever the fuck she likes really. Personally I think she's cool as fuck, I'd marry her tomorrow, no hesitation

[@achimswiss]

warum zeigt man sowas und ist auchnoch stolz? soetwas ist doch einfach krank und gehört nicht zum sport Klettern, das ist pures glück und hat nichts mit können zu tun!!

[@HotAches]

Nein das is falsch, Sie machen viel trainieren fur diesen steigen. Als fur einige Leute klettern is mehr als sport! (Es tut mir leid, meine deutsch is nich so gut)

[@tinkersailorhead4360]

Sorry , aber die Freikletterer sind schon immer auch Solo gegangen , auch vor hundert Jahren im Elbsand. Abgesehen davon dass es mit den damaligen Seilen eh kreuzgefährlich war.

[@masterpropper2485]

Mal wieder jemand, der vom Sport keine Ahnung hat aber denkt er muss YT videos kommentieren ....
