The Quarry: Chinaman's Chance
Loading...
Uploaded by awgfilm on Mar 11, 2007
Climbers are always asking me about The Quarry. So I thought I'd post a video that depicts a classic Quarry line: Chinaman's Chance (5.12b). It's like no other route you've ever seen. The start is as smooth as a well-polished tombstone, it requires sticky shoes, strong fingers, and artistic technique. The first half of the route is by far the hardest section. Paddle your feet, crimp on nothing-edges and reach with desperation and you'll find yourself at the only the second clip. The rest of the route has holds - but it gets steeper. Combine this with clipping 1/4" rusted bolts and you get the real Quarry experience. It's always fun climbing with Russell Hooper because he makes anything look possible. In this video he shows us how Chainman's Chance is done. Thanks Russ.
