In the 2nd episode of this seasons La Sportiva Living Legends, we travel to Wales, in particular Snowdonia, a place where one of the best trad climbers in the world Hazel Findlay calls her home. Along with fellow La Sportiva athlete Madeleine Cope, Hazel takes us on a day out in some her local climbing spots.

After studying psychology at university, Hazel has maintained her interest in the mental process of human behaviour throughout her climbing career, which has led her to starting her own climbing coaching business, something she does alongside being a professional climber for such brands as La Sportiva and Black Diamond.

We explore the past, present and future with Hazel, the slate quarries of Llanberis as well as the process of training the mind.

Climbs featured in this video:
First climb: The Mau Mau - E4 6a
2nd climb (DWS): Soap On A Rope - E4 / 6b+

    For some strange reason....my mind found ample plot writing humor in the final shots of this one... for humorist sake... our hero climber tops out..... looks up...sees man & woman climbing partners eating lunch.... why did you raise my harness? I had a cramp?!!! We were all supposed to lower off then climb this as a group......RIGHT!!!??? 🤔😡 Friends - we assumed you were brushing us off when you took off the harness..... then thought....since you weren't going to eat it we thought we'd have your lunch! Cheers @EPIC TV

    Anyone know the music used for this doc? Particularly the music used while she climbs the wall above the lake?
  • @13daprofessor
    A climbing wall in an attic? It's just crazy enough to work.
  • @grimpisme
