Are you suggesting that the dvd will be worth the money?

im guessing by your screen name your a crack climber, and if im correct you will definatly appreciate the sick crack climbing in this video. I loved the swiss climber whos name was dideir and vera (shultzs) onsight of a gnarly crack. Michael reardon soloing was pretty damn awesome. and the highline timmy did was insane too. theres some sick b.a.s.e jumping too. JUST BUY IT ITS WORTH IT!

Do you have or have you seen Front Range Freaks? If it's "no" to both I'd recommend dropping your 30 bones that instead. Now that Sender is out FRF might even be cheaper.
People are speaking the truth about the Indian Creek stuff being some of the best climbing footage around but FRF is better all the way through.

A MOVIE LASTS FOREVER HANDJAMMER48...until it gets scratched or melted. I loved Front Range Freaks. It was something different. I just watched the trailer on Return2Sender, and it looks incredible. I'd go to the premiere, but...I live in the mountainous region of the midwest...St. Louis.

Unfortunately, this flick isn't worth the cash in my opinion. I was psyched when it came out, and immediately bought the DVD. While the first segment of Indian Creek footage is incredible, the rest of the video is hardly worth the time, and definitely not worth $30.
The Jenerik girl bouldering is mildly interesting. Once. The segment on the pregnant lady climbing just fails to captivate my interest. The base jumping and Reardon soloing footage is cool, but not nearly as engaging as the Indian Creek segment. The climbing dog segment is fun, but too short, and the Nalumsortoq expedition segment is boring, with lots of lousy footage. Puts me to sleep.
I will definitely watch the Indian Creek footage again and again, especially the Renan Ozturk solo, but I was mightily disappointed by the rest of the video. Obviously a lot of money was spent on the first segment, not so much on the rest...
