DVD - THE SHARP END: Rock Climbing Reviews

Price: $ 29.95

Product Description THE SHARP END is a film about the climbers who push themselves to the limits of adventure, and risk everything on the razor's edge between success and disaster. Run out trade routes, scary high-ball boulder problems, ice-covered alpine walls and all-or-nothing free-solo ascents form the crucibles in which these climbers push through their fear and discover the uncertain consequences that lie on the other side. The film follows Steph Davis, Tommy Caldwell, Matt Segal, Lisa Rands, Topher Donahue, Adam Ondra and many other leading rock athletes to stunning locales across the globe: The Italian Alps, the sandstone spires of the Czech Republic , Yosemite Valley, the Utah Desert , and the Colorado Rockies. Like Sender Films' past contributions, THE SHARP END will deliver mind-blowing HD cinematography, gut laughs, dramatic twists, and the most exciting climbing film experience of 2008. 2 great offers in each dvd *postcard for a year subscription to CLIMBING *sticker offering an enter to win one of ten Windstopper jackets Feature
