Chris Sharma’s meteoric climbing career started when he won the Bouldering Nationals at age 14 and opened the hardest climb in America (at the time, 5.14c) a year later. In the decade that followed, Chris has continued to take climbing to a new level. Not only has he consistently shattered previous conceptions of difficulty, he was recently voted 8a Climber of the Decade. He has sent multiple 5.15 routes, bouldered V15, onsighted 5.14b, and established deep water solo routes at the highest grades. Chris holds claim to the current hardest route in America, and perhaps the world, with his ascent of Jumbo Love at Clark Mountain in California. Chris has a lot on his plate this year with a new house in Spain, establishing a string of 5.15 routes and climbing almost daily with his girlfriend Daila Ojeda. The area around their home is considered one of the hotspots for the sport globally with more than 70 crags featuring steep limestone caves and seemingly endless possibilities. It looks like Chris will have plenty of time to perfect his Spanish accent… For more on Chris visit: bit.ly

how fit!!! (thumbs up if u agree ;))
ahh i love doin the thing he did in the end :D. well it’s not as great as when he does it though T_T
There’s a guy in India who i think could have alot of potential if he was trained to be the most radical new age climber…Jyoti Raju . Look up his videos of him , they call him the Monkey man.
@Kenya3131 We have seen his videos! Pretty rad. It would be very interesting to see him on some traditional routes for sure!
@Kenya3131 But his dead đ
bravo master!
@coltleader So, what’s the difference in what he does compared to Dean Potter and someone like Alex Honnold? I watch their climbs, and they’re not screaming out in pain or exhaustion, and they’re obviously not falling because they don’t use ropes. If they climbed like Chris, they’d be dead. Each video I watch of Chris, he’s always falling, and the ropes catch him, but he’s known to many as one of the world’s best, so I’m confused.
@vickizspace I’m also confused by your post. What exactly are you refuting on my post?
@coltleader Not refuting anything. Just was sort of a question in the difference between styles and popularity within the climbing community. I guess what I’m really asking is when someone free climbs a mountain such as El Capitan or the Eiger in Switzerland it seems near impossible to me, especially when a skilled climber like Chris falls so much with ropes, so when someone like Dean or Alex free climbs – so they choose routes that are easier compared to what Chris is doing with ropes?
@vickizspace chris is known for the hardest and most difficult routes in the world, its the athletic aspect of climbing, he pushes himself to the physical limit and he knows that he will fall and will need many many tries. dean and alex are known for their mental strenght to climb without ropes, they push themselves psychical to the limit; you cant compare this two different ways of climbing. they are both a complete own way.
hes my cousin and he dozent know me you also have cousins that dont know you and inclouding your family
@vickizspace I think you shouldn’t compare these climbers that way. Climbing toprope is different to lead climbing is different to free soloing. The less security the rope gives to you, the less you will climb at your limit. Reasonably.
@MJCGN Ok, thanks. I assumed it was something like that, but I really didn’t know. Regardless, they are all pretty amazing.
