Ross' 1 week trip is a list of lifetime Yos goals for everyone else... King Air flash in the sun is wild. That's gotta be one of the best blocs in the world!
Cool footage, but it's a shame to see stuff that was clearly shot with a nice camera wind up looking all washed out. It might be worth having a chat to @miguelclimbs about how he does colour grading since he shoots in s-log and gets pretty nice results.
@@tadeasulrich2946it’s a perfectly valid critique, these cameras cost a ton because they can record in these flat color profiles to be tweaked afterwards in post. When you recognize someone invested in such an enthusiast tool, wouldn’t you want them to get the most out of it?
Yeah, I guess it is a flash. I still consider it a flash if I touch the holds on a boulder before attempting to climb it. Shouldn't make a difference that you touched some of the higher up holds.
To me that's the difference between onsight and flash. If you do a route first try with the beta it's a flash, without any previous knowledge it's an onsight. That's why boulders can't be onsighted, since you can usually touch and feel most of the holds from the ground. I guess that for highballs you can use the route definitions of onsight and flash.
@@istsamtonca It wouldn't be a flash in a routes definition either. The rule has always been that you can only touch holds you can reach from the landing to claim a flash, I respect that he's having the best possible experience he could have on the boulder, but imho still pros should be more strict about ethics (in this case about definitions)
Its a flash. Its just too much of a faf. He has to clean the route etc so he has to have someone else do that? I think pros should decide the ethics and even adam has dubious ethics on flash or on sight so it is what it is.
