Beatiful serie of videos, Jacopo and the filmakers make me feel completly in love with the climbing and the TRAD.

I love the philosophy of Jacobo! Its radical on the mind and makes you reconsider your mindset on normalized things like climbing nowdays. Huge respect!

That looks like pretty much a guaranteed ground fall on Jeune et Con if you fall in the top part? Crazy first ascent!

I understand "Europeans" not thinking of the UK and Ireland as "Europe" but the Nordic countries are Europe and lots of trad climbing in Norway, Sweden and Finland! There's even some in Denmark, on Bornholm i believe. 😀

The UK is part of Europe! It's just not a member of the EU anymore.

Yeah, he should have said "continental Europe". That said, I don't think he was ignorant here. He specifically said that due to there not being a "big" trad tradition many high-end routes have been bolted across continental Europe for decades. Almost all cutting-edge climbers in continental Europe have approached routes from a sport climbing point of view for almost 4 decades now. This doesn't mean that there isn't plenty of good, hard trad climbing across the continent but probably not for Jacopo who is a trad climber who can climb sport up to 9a+.

I'm not sure these videos sell the message of 'safe' trad climbing well, with the routes Jacopo does and the methods he uses! Beautiful to watch...and for those unfamiliar with trad climbing, there really are plenty of better protected, less run out routes to try with trad!

It's a good thing that this debate of leaving the rock as nude, not modified reappears. But in fact, it's an old debate from the late 70's- 80's beginning when the french approach of spit/safety/performance won over américain/english approach of commiting/risks/performance. Every climber should try trad climbing in his career, it's richer than sport climbing.

I think it comes to two questions: If route is possible to protect with trad gear then why bolt? And if route is impossible to protect or is extremely dangerous with trad gear then why not bolt it?
@kevindawson92708 ай бұрын
Perhaps because what is dangerous/impossible for this generation may be safe/possible for future ones? Standards are always improving. Once a route's bolted that's it.

I couldn't have said it better: bolting creates irreversible damage to the rock - trad leaves it as it has been for thousands of years - for the generations to come. Great climbing and spectacular routes! 💚🔥👊🏼💪🏼🙏🏼

I do think that INTO THE SUN ought to be an 8C+ Boulder problem and left at that. Traditionally speaking of course. Thoughts?
@Hopesfallout4 ай бұрын
I (surely not speaking from personal experience) doubt it would qualify as an 8C+ boulder problem. Jacopo definitely doesn't boulder 8C+ and given that both Bernd and Jacopo specifically gave it a route grade, the boulder should not be much harder than 8B+. But this is pointless. I'd just agree with the esteemed ascentionists who think it's an 8c+ route which is dominated by a difficult boulder problem. ^^

I’m really inspired by Jacopo and his approach to climbing. However, given his notoriety, I’m wondering why he doesn’t use helmet. I know it’s a personal choice, but with so many other people approaching climbing and especially trad, I guess he might influence people not to wear it
