The North Face presents: Nina Williams "RIDING THE WAVE" - CHINA BEACH 5.14B/8C
Спорт
China Beach is one of those unique routes that possess character; ask any of its ascenders and they'll probably tell you how memorable and meaningful it was for them to climb it.
Nina Wiliams had her eyes set on it since she was a child. As a New Englander, she found herself staring at China Beach every time she'd be climbing at Waimea (Rumney, NH) and now two decades later, she came back to put up the first female ascent of this king line: CHINA BEACH 5.14B/8C
Presented by: The North Face

One of the best climbing vids from this year
Great climb, great climber, great story. This is a savage route and I am glad the FFA was done by a New Englander!
The level of psych I experienced from watching this is unreal. A phenomenal effort from Nina, World Class Rock, and an incredible video production. Loved the pacing and editing of this one. Watching Nina climb reminds me how joyful this sport can be. Five stars all around.
That rose move was insane 🤯
You know when mellow pulls out a route video its going to be freaking sick! Congrats on the send!
The slowmo sequence at 16:15 is absolutely stunning

Dude I didn’t breathe during the whole sequence
The Part from 16:00 till 16:45 is maybe the best filming of a sequence i have ever seen (And i watched a LOT of climbing videos) combined with the perfect sound/Edit for this Part ... CRAZY GOOD i mean wtf :D it does something to me to watch that intensity so close in slow motion!

Ughhhh... This was so good. From the storytelling, to the climbing porn, to the music and edit. Top notch through and through. More of this please 😊

The editing on this is extremely well done. Makes me miss Rumney to!
"It goes!" I wish I was there... This is such a treat to watch! Thanks Nina, Thanks Mellow!!

Nina on a rope is one of my favorite things ✨
that solution to the span was the coolest thing i've ever seen
One of the best videos done on mellow
This is the best climbing film I’ve seen in a while. Feels like European storytelling and American production. Great job.
goddamn the editing around the send is immaculate
Awesome. I remember watching the Dave Graham segment back in the days and thinking, wow, this cliff is one of a kind. Gorgeous filming and editing, too.

Even better in person. When I used to climb and walk under there it never got old to just look up at the huge wave of rock. I am just glad I was able to send the easiest but namesake climb Waimea

First class climbing and first class cinematography. That cross under move is absolutely crazy !!!
