Video Description

Of course, It would be way more fun to climb (and talk) with Alex Honnold (on) some sick big wall, but for now, we have to be satisfied with this awesome talk we had! Alex is an unbelievably relaxed guy and this also applies to his cool climbing style. It was quite surprising to find out that, for Alex, free soloing El Cap was a bigger chill than climbing on our Czech sandstone. We covered so many great topics. Alex shared inspiring experiences and thoughts and besides the funny story of how we have met, we talked about our climbing efforts, tried to figure out if climbing harder routes makes us noticeably stronger, chatted about sport climbing, speed climbing, how do we cope with so much attention and if there are any responsibilities connected to being a public figure. And much more. Enjoy! Together with Alex, we partner up with Black Diamond and we support the production of quality climbing, skiing and other outdoor equipment.
