| Booming Heck. |
|
We've got a boom and we're not afraid to use it - yes I got motion sickness editing this. It needs toning down but you get the idea for the possibilities of filming lead rock climbing with this snazzy piece of kit. The climb is 'Missing' E7 7a, a wee gem of a route found just above Blea Tarn in the Langdales . The climber is Dave Birkett, yes that's his lucky T-shirt, Dave says the route kept him busy for a few evenings - its still unrepeated.
Special thanks to Dave Reeves who worked through the night to build the 6m boom for us. We'll have some snaps of it soon as its quite a thing.
Some of the clip will be part of the forthcoming dvd SET IN STONE and the whole cut will be in the extras section.
Music by Defunkles.

| Dave Birkett on Crisis Zone |
|
Watch the trad master Dave Birkett on the scary 'Crisis Zone' in Northumberland, E7 6c.
Dave's knee popped just before the crux hence the hopping motion near the top and he ripped a finger flapper spraying the crux holds with blood, well done Dave for finishing it off although he didn't really have much choice.
Filmed and put together by Chris Plant, I nice first effort at editing with some dramatic sound effects! |
