Awesome rock climbing in our Friday afternoon streaming video selection :-)

It's Friday, it's not quite five to five, but it sure as heck is time for the Friday Matinee and your chance to pass some of that sluggish Friday afternoon time before the weekend finally arrives.

It's been a while since we featured some mainstream rock climbing, so here, for starters is top American rock jock Chris Sharma on the first ascent of Dreamcatcher, 5.14d/9a. Check the mad dyno sequence...

And while we're on the subject of international climbing stars, here's Alex Huber climbing a 9A project in the Barcelona area.

But hey, who needs those foreign fancy dans when you could be climbing gritstone, this is a neat compilation of climbers over the years on Gaia E8 6c at Black Rocks in the Peak. Aye, proper climbing lad, with proper music and all...

Oh what the heck, one more for luck. This is an excerpt from PSYCHE. Alastair Lee's award-winning quadruple header with Steve McClure climbing Mutation, 9a. Enjoy...

That's it for this week, have a good one :-)
