Awesome video!Captivatingly simple,watched without distraction from start to finish and for someone with the attention span of a goldfish thats is an achievement! Don't think the film could have captured the elements of landscape/its people and climbing any better.Brilliant. I am sure that if Jerry wants to come to the UK there would be plenty of people to show him around.Great stuff!

I think it's the best bouldering film I've ever seen. Certainly the most beautiful.

Lovely film. Well done to the film makers. I spent a few weeks bouldering in Hampi in '91/'92 and it is really good to see some local talent emerging.

Hi Lee and Julia, we hung out with you a bit when we were in Hampi last October. It's great to see the results of your work - such a beautiful film. Stunning editing, and good music choices! Makes us want to go back... Hope you are both really well.

The shots of Cosmic Crimp are some of the most compelling and captivating of any bouldering film I've ever seen. Truly spectacular. Well done. Much love for Hampi.

Hi Guys! Great to hear from you both. How was the rest of your trip around the world? I imagine you had a fantastic time. Thanks for the great compliments on the film. We had so much fun working on it with everyone. I think it turned out better than we all imagined it would. The reaction and support towards it has been brilliant. I think it represents the beauty of the place so accurately. Can't wait to get back there! Hope to see you guys on the Grit!x

I spent a month in Hampi a few years ago, and knew id go back at some point. This film and the birth of a new guidebook, and new areas getting developed all the time may be the kick up the arse i need!

I left Jerry one of my pads before i left, i hope he has had some use out of it!

Awesome video! I spent two months in Hampi towards the end of the summer in 2013 and climbed with Jerry pretty much every day. Apart from being a super strong and talented climber, he is also such genuinely nice person. He was more than happy to take us to different places and have the patience to help us less talented climbers. He even took the time out to take us to Badami and show us some of the sport climbing it has to offer. Id love to go back sometime and spend another couple of months there!
