Black Diamond Presents: Hard Sends with Seb Bouin—Wolf Kingdom (9b+)

Black Diamond Presents: Hard Sends with Seb Bouin—Wolf Kingdom follows Seb Bouin on one of the most striking hard sport lines in France: Wolf Kingdom. Rated 9b+/5.15c, it’s the kind of limestone testpiece that defines an era—but for Seb, the real story isn’t just the number, it’s what it takes to stay committed through a long, demanding project. This episode dives into the rhythm behind elite performance: decision-making, patience, and the quiet confidence to keep showing up until it all clicks. With perspective from top climbers like Adam Ondra and Jakob Schubert as they begin to eye Seb’s routes, it’s a rare look at how world-class climbs become magnets for the next wave—and why the process can matter even more than the send.

Arc'teryx Presents: Climbing Through

Week of May 5, 2025

Arc'teryx Presents: Climbing Through

Arc'teryx Presents: Climbing Through follows professional climber Julia Niles as she steps out of the swirl of everyday obligations—motherhood, guiding, and her counseling practice—and into the steep, committing world of big-wall climbing in Chile’s Cochamó Valley, invited by friend and pro athlete Em Pellerin. High above the ground and tied together on the wall, the film turns each deliberate move into a lesson in presence: slowing down, trusting the partnership, and reconnecting with why climbing matters. It’s a grounded, intimate adventure story that pairs real life with real exposure—and leaves you wanting to breathe deeper, climb smarter, and savor the moment you’re in.

Black Diamond Presents: Flashed—Babsi Zangerl's Historic Flash of El Capitan

In Flashed, Babsi Zangerl sets her sights on the 3,000-foot Free Rider on El Capitan—and does what no one has done before: a true flash of one of the world’s most iconic big walls. With partner Jacopo Larcher, she commits to a ground-up effort that stretches across three intense days on Yosemite granite. This isn’t just a headline ascent. The film digs into the texture of the attempt—slick slabs, gnarly offwidths, and sequences that only reveal themselves when you’re already in too deep—while showing the calm, trust, and grit it takes to keep moving upward. If you want a front-row seat to history and the human story behind it, this one delivers.

Week of March 10, 2025

My Hardest Boulder 9A/ V17 | Adam Ondra

Adam Ondra takes on Soudain Seul, a V17/9A boulder problem at Fontainebleau, in what he describes as one of the most beautiful and satisfying lines he has ever climbed. The film follows his five-session journey to the top, capturing the meticulous process of decoding a world-class boulder problem move by move, with each session revealing new subtleties in the stone. What makes this film compelling is not just the historic difficulty of the ascent, but Ondra's raw honesty about the emotional weight it carries after several seasons of near-misses on major projects. Watching him finally break through on one of the forest's finest test pieces, in new La Sportiva Ondra Comp shoes no less, delivers a deeply satisfying payoff for any climbing fan.
