Tierra Boulder Battle 2013 - BACKSTAGE PASS from Sandstones Media on Vimeo.

6 ladies are given some holds, a piece of plywood and a few hours. What would you expect ? A boring dispatch of crimp pulling ? A few fall ? Can’t be more wrong….

First, the Tierra Boulder Battle is a show. Crowdpleasers problems of a high level of difficulty, perfect custom made holds on a fine structure.
Second, these girls RULES. They are beautiful, they climb harder than you and they know how to have a good laugth in between tries.
Last but not least, this video is not about the comp, it’s about everything around. Jump backstage to see how such a fine event come to life.

Thanks to Alex Puccio, Mathilda Söderlund, Mina Leslie-Wujastyk, Mélissa Le Nevé, Therese Johansen and Anja Hodann for beeing awesome during these few days.
Thanks to Björn Pohl, all the Klättercentret crew, and all the events partner for pulling such a great show.

Thanks for watching !

The heartbreaking last week has arrived. And is behind me now. Only facing the future, full of nice projects, nice people, more fun times, better videos for you.

One reason to watch it ? First repeat of Oliphants Down ? Dave KILLING Royksopp ? Daniel running laps on Shosholoza ? See how much sweat a pro climber skin can produce ? Choose your !

Thanks for watching, sharing, liking or hating. Hope to give you more SOON !!

Peace out,

Clement

High end rock climbing in there. I wish this can get you as motivated and inspired that I was when witnessing all that stuff.

Peace,

Clement

If you need to see what fighting on rock is about, check this out !

Crazy shit happening around here !

After this crzay week, Rocklands have been rained out for two days, and tonigh is the annual RockStock festival, with its famous Air Guitar/Acting contest.

After this break, no doubt the motivation will be high as it gets.

Cheers,

Clem

Part 2 is out, enjoy !

Week 3 is out, in two parts this time. Too many ascents, meters of tape, kilograms of chalk, liters of blood, sweat, tears, and drama.

The process of doing The Rocklands post is a great experience, and allows me to witness every day some damn fine climbing.

Yesterday for instance, Michele sent El Corazon in an impressive way. Stikking the jump move, locking the iron-cross between two tiny crimps, 5 meters above the deck. The tension and the control level involved was astonishing, and the little assembly that trew their pad underneath this awesome piece of rock could attest that.

Stay tuned for next week edition, and be sure to check part 2, that includes ascents of Quintessential, Shosholoza, and more…

And here comes Week 2 !

With dry/cold/almos-perfect conditions, many hard boulders went down this week.

An example ?

Martin Mobraaten, lying on the couch right next to me just arrived after a day out. He managed to take down Black Shadow (8A+), Golden Viginia (8A), Black Mango Shuntey (7C+), Shark (7C), Barracuda (8A). Oh, and it rained today, like 2 short downpours. Ok ? You see the picture ? At least 20 people would be required to film every ascent…

Hope you’ll enjoy this week edition !

See you soon for the next one.

Adish,

Clem

Here it is !

First week is already behind me, and my eyes have already exploded. This place absolutely RULES. Everything you could think of is top notch in here.

No words required, just look a it !

Peace,

Clem.
