Granite Earth

[starttext]
The Boulderer. A rare species of human that survives purely on its ability to perform a delicate dance between life and death in perfect synergy, with granite. Lacking the ability to bathe and engage in non-climbing social settings, the climber is often left with nothing but chalky hands and a deeply engrained quest to find the purest rocks while simultaneously searching for a mate of this grey and white planet.

Black Diamond athletes Daniel Jung and Nico and Olivier Favresse are always on the hunt for first ascents, and their most recent search led them to Norway where they found a stunning, overhanging wall laced with cracks. The trio's FA pursuit involved skin-shredding jams, mega whippers, and daily shenanigans, including scooter jumping and swapping tooth-brushing tips.
This is video is part of our Climbing 2013 digital catalog. Through photos, videos and narrated slideshows, the Climbing 2013 digital catalog highlights first ascents and first free ascents from recent years, as well as the crucial pieces of Black Diamond gear that helped make them a reality. In addition, the digital catalog showcases historical images from past first ascents—chosen by our athletes—that have fueled their own personal FA pursuits.

Paul Robinson: American Gangster V14

[starttext]
While living in Innsbruck, Austria this past Autumn, I was fortunate enough to be able to climb in the incredible beautiful area of Zillertal. On one of my first days there I stumbled upon the boulder problem, American Gangster. When I first saw the line, I got really psyched to try it and set to work. Over the course of a few weeks, while fighting off bad weather, I was able to try the climb a couple of different days. After coming agonizingly close and having to wait out some more bad weather, I managed to finally make the boulders 3rd ascent! The line is one of the coolest boulder problems I have ever done and will for sure remember climbing it in that incredible valley in Austria for many years to come! ~Paul Robinson

Alex Honnold making the A Gift From Wyoming.Yosemite

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGA4iUKhESEendofvid

[starttext]BD Athlete Alex Honnold wants to be left alone. No, not really, but he did take the unusual approach of climbing alone on fixed lines as he worked to free a route on Yosemite's Leaning Tower, a 1500-foot prow of overhanging granite, that Todd Skinner had originally tried more than a decade ago. This past fall Alex managed to free the lower portion of the route (naming it A Gift From Wyoming and grading it mid-range 5.13), but the 5.14/5.15 business on the headwall waits unredpointed.

Here is Part #2 (filmed and edited by John David Dickey) which follows Alex as he makes the first ascent.

Part #1, which introduces Alex's motivations for tackling the first ascent challenge, can be watched here: http://youtu.be/x2PwAZinuEQ

This video was previewed in the Climbing 2013 digital catalog—28 pages of exclusive photos, videos and stories of first ascent from the past and present. To view Cliimbing 2013 digital catalog, go here: catalog.blackdiamondequipment.com/

[starttext]Matheus Farage escalando três boulders em Cocalzinho. O primeiro é o "Lacas Guinsu", boulder extremamente doído que sai de dois regletes invertidos para um tapa em outro inexistente. O segundo é um highball que não sabemos o nome, perto da pedra do Lacas. É uma linha clássica, longa, plástica, que arranca quase 5 minutos de perrengue do Farage. Por último, o pequenino "Origens", V10 de praticamente apenas um movimento, puro encaixe, pura força, pura ganância. Osso mór!
