Video Tips

Climbing videos basically suck for the most part (except King Lines & The Sharp End... Mr. Sharma has won me over) but here are some tips to make your next video awesome. 1. Pick out some music that is so phenomenal, no one could possibly wish to mute said music, like some mainstream hip pop. Better yet prevent viewers from muting your music tastes. 2. If your climbing something, be sure not to look scared and if in the event you are terrified, make sure to smile like some sort of demented clown, it will hide your fear. 3. After a difficult move, stop, look at the camera, and give a thumbs up. This is a simple means of telling viewers that you are a bad ass. 4. Also, ALWAYS climb wearing as few clothes as possible so everyone can see your rippling muscles. This is very important because SEX SELLS even if your climbing a V0, no one will notice. 5. Finally, when you send a tough project, flash your hands at the camera so everyone can see how tore up they are and then viewers will know you are such a hard ass for climbing on bloody, raw, and wounded hands. And tell the viewers that you really felt you were one the rock and make sure to drop a couple of names of a few big time climbers. Also, don't forget to tell everyone that the climb was "totally rad" or "mad sick". These tips will make your next climbing video get so many hits on You Tube, the feds might even set up a task force.
