Meltdown was equipped by Ron Kauk, freed by Beth Rodden and only repeated by Carlo Traversi in 2018. Now REEL ROCK 15 is available to stream and download, complete with two hours of bonus content. The program premiered online-only for a limited time in December, earning rave reviews.
But that's another thread.Īlso, I seem to recall Stanhope and Segal saying that if someone were to send the whole crack pitch on Tom Egan from stance to stance that it would be 14+.but I could be making that up. Magice Line is one of the hardest single-pitch trad routes in the world, the other being Meltdown 5.14+, also in Yosemite. REEL ROCK 15 is an inspiring collection of six new films, including the already iconic Black Ice. Another thing that can be hard to quantify on trad climbs is the scare factor.I know of a few 5.12X climbs that probably won't be repeated because they're just too damn terrifying. I wonder if Ondra gave it a go when he was in the Valley? Seems like it would be up his alley. La primera de Beth Rodden en 2008 y una repeticin a cargo de Carlo Traversi, en noviembre de 2018. El honor lo comparte con Meltdown, una lnea tambin de tradicional que solo cuenta con dos ascensiones hasta la fecha. TC said his fingers didn't fit in the crux holds. Magic Line es una de las fisuras de un solo largo ms duras de Yosemite. For instance with Meltdown, it's possible that it hasn't seen a repeat because the jams are so tiny.the only person I know who has put in serious attempts is Carlo Traversi.
You can build muscle groups for specific hard sport climbs, but it's pretty difficult to make your fingers just the right size. Hard trad climbing has to be difficult to grade objectively - there are so many factors, not least of which is finger size.
