Didn't think much of this vid. Seemed very shallow with no info about the route apart from the pitch grades, nothing about how they experienced it and the cheesy music seemed like a desperate attempt to make it dramatic when there was no real drama.

Have you seen the vid of Edu climbing Panaroma with his dad? The climbing is great but some of the cheesy BS and awful music is on a par with anything they churn out of the USA these days!

Good action footage, but that music really killed it* for me.



*I don't mean that the way young people use it, to mean that it did a great job - it didn't.

I liked it. Yes the music was a bit shit, but at least they cut the obligatory philosophical bullshit rather short, and the climbing scenes gave you a rather good idea about what the pitches look like.
