Movie Review: Vertical Limit

IMDB Rating: 5.8/10

Year Released: 2000

IMDB Synopsis: A climber must rescue his sister on top of K2, one of the world’s
biggest mountains.

Rock Spot Synopsis: As if climbing K2 isn’t hard
enough (One in four will perish in the attempt) some knucklehead deemed it
necessary to bring up some nitroglycerin, you know, just in case. I’ve personally
replaced my chalk bag with a canister of nitroglycerin. I find that it makes my
hands feel dryer and gives me an edge with my explosive movements.

climbers form an uneasy partnership after a successful rescue mission grants them
the gift of a lifetime.


Rock Spot Synopsis: On more than one occasion you will literally say the words,

eyes multiple times during this film.

Youth Climbers Shine in Epic Competition

We had an absolute blast at our very first Boston Boulder Brawl (B3). The turn out was fantastic and the energy was high all day long. It was phenomenal to see the best boulder climbers in Boston show up and go head to head. We can’t wait for the next one!

This is the very first of our Brawl compilations. We’ve been hard at work editing all the footage to show you our competitors taking down these amazing problems set by Head Route Setter, Mike Dominguez “MIG” and his incredible setting team.

In this video, we see the Youth Boys exceed our expectations and send not just their Brawl problems, but a selection from the Men’s Advanced Brawl in a Super Brawl to determine who would be the last one standing. It’s an absolute nail-biter as the final competitors get knocked out on the same problem and the title goes to the highest round 1 score.

We’re so proud of all of our competitors and hope to see everyone return for the next B3 with some new competitors to raise the stakes!

The Youth Girl’s Brawl is next so be sure to subscribe to our channel to get notified as soon as our content is uploaded.
