"A collection of fantastic climbing tales... every shot is saturated with the emotion of the climber - Stone Country. eview

Slate Monkeys
Set in the post industrial landscape of disused Welsh slate quarries, three very different climbers battle their way up some unusual climbing. Matt Segal, Hazel Findlay and Johnny Dawes take it in turn to crimp, palm, squirm and wriggle their way up the esoteric route, Gin Palace. But whose technique will prove successful?

Single-Handed
Winner of 'People's Choice' and 'Best Climbing Film' at the Edinburgh Mountain Film Festival
Kevin Shields is known as the one handed climber. Despite being born with most of his left hand missing Kevin has shocked the climbing world with some daring and inspirational ascents. The film exposes Kevins motivations and follows his progression through the climbing grades, culminating in a gripping and palm-sweating attempt to solo E6 in Glen Nevis.

Little Big-Walling in Madagascar
The West Face of Karimbony in the Tsaranoro Massif is home to one of the worlds hardest big-wall free climbs, Tough Enough?. James McHaffie and a team of top UK climbers head to Madagascar to find out if this route is indeed tough enough

Hey Presto
World class climber Sonnie Trotter teams up with world class belayer Cory Richards to take on the Squamish classic, Presto. The film examines what it takes to belay on some the worlds hardest climbs.

"If a climbing film is judged by what it inspires, then this one lights the flame within." - Stone Country

I'm touched and inspired by the strong will-power and determination of the one-handed climber Kevin Shields. I will be the first to support if some organisations were to start a climbing competition/sport/recreational hobby for the handicapped
