White Bufalo 5.13.d free solo

[rvtw619]

thats a highbal, and you had plenty of pads



[gpurvis1000]

now imagine doing like 1000 of those all at once.

[13philipmiller]

If highballs are considered free soloing, then I have free soloed before.

[stkazmer]

Ya, not a free solo! High ball for sure though! nice job!

[shattmelton]

not really a free solo, just a high ball boulder problem. still cool though

[mammouthfacher]

not free solo! but epic climb!

[Belroch]

Nice ! You should have a trip to Fontainebleau.

[TheYeager420]

You mean bouldering, not free soloing...

[opeth867]

@TheYeager420 look closely, there are bolts! who cares what he wants to call it. just appreciate the skill!

[G1goloJoe]

i like how people are raging when you can see bolts, obviously its a sport route. you mad bro?

[AndrewFreschetta]

fwooosh!

[jefferson462]

5.13d? Last I checked the Yosemite Decimal System wasn't used in bouldering. What a bullshit title. Free soloing??? Get over yourself.

[opeth867]

@jefferson462 quit being a trolling dick and get yourself. can't you just appreciate that he just did a v11? ( and yes it is rated 5.13d in guide books (cuz it has bolts!))

[jefferson462]

@opeth867 First of all, go fuck yourself. I can appreciate that he did V11. The term "free-solo" is misleading in this video. Who gives a fuck if it has bolts? If Evilution had bolts, would it then be considered free-soloing? Or what about Ambrosia? The real climbers that do highball bouldering don't over-exaggerate and call it "free-soloing" to inflate their sense of self-worth.

[nhejel23]

How is he coming down?

[swams49]

awesome ascent man, music was driving me crazy though

[thechillinman]

not a 13 what are nuts nice climb but get the problem right

[egerroir]

NOT A 5.13 AT ALL! LMAO!!!

THE BEST = ALEX HONNOLD

NOT THIS POSER

[TheSouthrunner]

@egerroir chill dude. hes not claiming to be a superstar or "the best". its just a video of him doing a big hard highball boulder problem. in the description he says its V11, which looks like it could very well be the case. it does have bolts though, so if you dont feel so badass as to do such a highball boulder problem, its still workable. and the rating for it as a sport climb is infact 5.13.its in wild iris wy, look it up. but dont go bashing him and downgrading it just after watching a video

[hobgoblin99]

Turn the volume down and listen to

"Gravity" by tool while you watch this...

[macattack7372]

the holds look like they might be 1/4" to 3/16 of an inch with a 10 degree incline or less. am i correct????

[srfrr]

thats no 13

[mchulse22]

Great climb! It looks like this should be on the Hueco rating scale rather than Yosemite scale...

[alobar1234]

nice highball

[riedstep]

Nice climb. I do highballs all the time the same height but not nearly as hard. It's scary deciding that u can't fall. At that height is definetly where u decide it.

[KamedaFamily]

Isn't this Bouldering?

[grobozo]

cool..what's the music?

[dantewj]

major props!

[titusgontea]

Great climb, but it comes with a big difference between free soloing and highball bouldering... they are bassicly the same , but in case of falling , in free soloing there is no hope of surviving...

[Elsammp]

isn't it only free soloing when it's too high to use crash mats?

[lightspeed82]

@Elsammp technically you can use crash pads at any height....

[Wazoodles]

@Elsammp yup. This is a boulder problem.

[opeth867]

@Elsammp why do people have to be so technical.shit, the way I look at it is if he fell wrong he'd die! isn't that good enough to be considered a free solo. there are a lot of high ball problems that could be considered small free solos. JUST APPRECIATE THE CLIMB! who cares what he wants to call it.can you do that problem? I can't. and I appreciate the skill he has to be able to, no matter if he calls it a high ball or free solo. Keep on climbing brother!

[scottleeper]

@Elsammp no



[ToppaliniTube]

@Elsammp no, it is a route that is supposed to be protected by rope and he is doing it solo and unprotected from the fall.

[MrPengwin95]

@ToppaliniTube he is protected from the fall...by mats. this is like calling bouldering free soloing. it isn't.

[morningkillr]

@MrPengwin95 2 big mats and 2 small mats. if he had of fallen near the top that wouldve done some damage

[iambrendan45]

very fun to watch well done

[77lukasmessner77]

This is free solo, but only bouldering. Because he has bouldermat under a rock and, moreover, is not more than seven meters.

[gymjoem]

thats awesome! wild iris is amazing...

how many pads did you have?

[atxa2000]

@gymjoem 4 pads - 2 big - 2 small, def shoulda had more!

[atxa2000]

The masterpiece footage was just small sections of footage, i actually sent it 2 months later in the spring with james. It's nice to know the dap police are out, ha ha.

[utahphunk]

Nice work, but we still need to talk about your photographer-dab on Masterpiece...
