Deep Water Soloing above the River Thames

With workshops, talks, films, food, live music, and a climbing wall stretching more than fifty feet above the docks of Canary Wharf, the North Face Climb Festival had a lot to offer.

UKC travelled down to London to explore the Festival, watch bold climbing and big falls from some of the very best climbers in Britain and from across the world, and even attempt to take on the wall themselves...

Would love to see a full video of the comp.

Thanks for this at least. It’s the most complete version I’ve seen.

It looks like synchronised swimming has met climbing.
