When is he doing crack with the wide boyz?
I could listen to him commentate over his climbs for hours lol
JD content is always welcome. More please!

This was more a contextual advert than content
I still dig out my old copy of Stone Monkey to watch occasionally. Some of the climbing in it still amazes me.

The bit where he doesn't lead parthian shot then slags off John Dunne for decades because he could is awesome. Not.
Brilliant. Still got it ❤️💪🏼

Such a legend and a really nice guy to boot, lucky to have him at our local centre regularly.

scarpa thought he was nice to boot too.
Wait, this guy can climb with his hands?
Great lead Johnny. Lovely to see you again 👍
Luv seeing high quality filming of grit stone climbing
Amazing to see Johnny climbing. Would have been nicer without the sales pitch though, although I've already got my Scarpas so it could be lost on me!

It's because this was taken from a video of him talking about how climbing shoes have come on over the years
JD is my climbing hero.
Great to see Johnny on rock again
A legend still climbs
La mayor expresión de técnica y fluidez que he visto jamás. En España se te quiere...
Once a star, always a star. His climbing far more eloquent than the words
great scarpa advert
A true legend.
Legend
Met him at the Roaches when he was climbing no hands...made hard routes look so easy
Top class.
i know its been 2 years but can we please have Johnny do more gear reviews!?
Big fan

Brought to you buy Scarpa
He was so far ahead of his time
King of grip
He got advantage in the wind with his weight now.
We miss Johnny in Sheff
I'm going to buy whatever shoe that guy recommends!
Johnny's a legend but this is a bit duplicitous / deceptive with the edit and cut between one attempt and then a subsequent success with a top-rope-style side-runner.

Brilliant, this one wasn't hands free though a bit disappointed.... 🤣. In a serious note pity that most of the comments are just advertising for Scarpa Chimeras...

It’s a clip from a review Johnny did for us a while back, out of context I can see how it might come accros like an advert, but he did like the shoes…

A crummy commercial?
I love this on many levels, but am also surprised JD needs the money - perhaps it is an elaborate piss take?
Did we really need two thirds of this video to be a shoe advert?

Think it's a part taken from a longer piece where he's taking about modern climbing shoes, not an advert, shame you were so disappointed, thought it was cool.
cute...

F...ck!!! An E7 6c must be over a 7c+ grade.
Another massively overgraded peak nothing route.
Sorry, it s not freeclimbing.. No interest
