Slabducation, the Movie

[@WideBoyz]

The third route Siebe was on, looks amazing!! Nice film Talo 🤙

[@talomartin8481]

It was! You'll love it next time🏴‍☠️

[@senorblondie]

I loved seeing Johnny still crushing in this film and waxing poetic as always... ❤ 👊🏼

He's the best😆🔥

As someone who absolutely hates slab climbing, this has got me quite psyched to try some more slabs! Fantastic video

[@talomartin8481]

Thanks so much. I really appreciate this words🤘

[@joshuameier378]

Talo I remember meeting you in Magic wood Switzerland back in 2018 or so, and being there with a bunch of really strong boulders who were all working 7c+ or higher. And I remember them getting on this 7b slab and each one getting totally shut down, only to watch you later float up the thing. Your slab climbing is truly an art

[@talomartin8481]

😊😆I remember that😆🤘

[@AnnaHazelnutt]

Increíble Talo!!! Las placas de sueños. Love to see slab repped in such an exciting positive way :) Necesito volver prontoooo 🙏🏽

[@talomartin8481]

Slabs are always positive 🤘😜

[@honza4471]

just found this movie after having visited my friend who's local at La Pedriza this past spring and I absolutely fell in love with the place. Thank you very much Talo for this movie, it brings back awesome memories

[@stivunnikolov5941]

Talo, come to Bulgaria, Vratsa. We will find you where to stay, life here is cheap for foreigners and we have tons, I mean TONS of slab climbing in the most beautiful nature. Come and enjoy :) I forgot something. We love you and your vids :)

[@talomartin8481]

Fuuuuuucck, that's very sweet! I would love to. Keep in touch

[@ismaelchivite1561]

I have been waiting for this video to come out. Long wait, but it did not dissapoint. It was great to see Johnny; its all about your feet! @talo if you ever come out to Southern California give me shout. Many projects off the beaten path awaiting for you.

[@talomartin8481]

Thanks a lot for these words Isma🤘

[@erimendan]

Awesome job as always, Talo, thanks for sharing! It's already probably my favourite slab climbing video.

[@talomartin8481]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks man🤘

[@DavidFernandez-tw1hu]

Muchas gracias por todo el trabajo que habeis hecho para hacer de la pedriza la escuala el que es ahora!! Felicidades por el docu

[@talomartin8481]

Lo que se merece, es lo más😁🤘

[@stonegrit]

It's not about the climbing so much it's the way Johnny's expression of the rock- poetic ❤️

[@talomartin8481]

Exactly🤘

[@MrWill830]

Nice movie, it has this sort of "old school" vibe to it, like watching young Chris Sharma's "Rampage"

[@talomartin8481]

Thanks man 🤘

[@walkaboutwilliams]

Great film and footage! I'm stoked to see new routes going up and climbers learning to love granite! La Pedriza!!!

“I mean, I think it’s gone from anarchic to fascist, probably” - Johnny Dawes on the state of modern climbing (if I heard him correctly). 😂

"You must get on top of that rock for the glory of our nation!"

Johnny Dawes absolute fkin legend.

[@Ian_climbs]

I’m fluent in both Spanish and English and the seamless transition from one language to the other was really weird😂. I just kept reading the subtitles for a hot minute until I realized it was a different language. Loved the video!!

[@talomartin8481]

Glad you like it anyways😁😆

[@ochoymedio78]

Seeing that John Dawes still has the no hands moves 20 years later is quite an inspiration!

[@manuprats5080]

In-cre-í-ble, qué recuerdazos!! Y las palabras de Johnny no tienen desperdicio...

[@constantinosschinas4503]

5:00 guy is so right. Slabs are the best way to learn how to be fast on easy terrain.

[@talomartin8481]

Of course

[@mindsmatter606]

Awesome video! Slab climbing is definitely becoming the forgotten lost art! My climbing gym has about a 100:1 dyno to slab ratio and I feel so many routes lack technique nowaday. Stoked to see more folks channeling their inner bear!

[@talomartin8481]

Exactly. You just have to see the climbing shoes market.. All are made for gyms and not for technical climbing anymore

[@mindsmatter606]

@Talo Martin funny you mention that, im looking for a new pair of shoes now and having a hard time finding shoes that let me climb the techy 5.11-12 stuff "comfortably". Got any recommendations?

[@CusTomNo]

It's annoying, my gym doesn't set any slab harder than 7a+ (and its a soft 7a+ at that) but its such rewarding discipline!

[@talomartin8481]

@@mindsmatter606 what FR size do you use mate?

[@mindsmatter606]

@Talo Martin my walking shoe size is 47-48 in FR but usually downsize for the climbing shoes

Awesome video, really liked the Jonny Dawes bits especially! Great work... Is the Barbosa Crack in the La Pedriza 963 vias book? I can't find it (there seems to be no Piratas wall in the book?)... would be amazing to check it out.

[@talomartin8481]

THANKS for that🤘 Yeah, Piratas doesn't appear in that guidebook as it's just a selection that it's been repeatedly re-edited without newer routes. Piratas is just 100 right of La Peseta, and below Peña Sirio spur. Shaded until mid day

La escalada en la Pedriza (Madrid) me recuerda mucho a la escalada de las placas de Faro de Budiño (Pontevedra) en cuanto a técnica, las placas en la Pedriza son más lisas, depende de la placa necesitas unos gatos u otros,,, más duros o más adherentes, en Budiño hay pitones,,, ambos sitios son mágicos.
