Thumbs up for First Ascent, the Film

If there's one thing we are sure of here at RacewayExtremeTube.com it is that you guys like to it extreme and you like to watch. 

So how about getting a movie for once?

We thoroughly recommend First Ascent.

Sender Films' First Ascent, the film, came out on DVDs in 2006 and has widely been regarded to be the best climbing movie of all time.  The premise of the film is simple, they follow different climbers on their way up from Canada, the United States and even as far out as Thailand.  So if you like gut wrenching climbing action, coupled with some big falls, then this is your poison.

It's not just rock, wall, crack climbing and falling, it's educational too.  The film takes you on a short history of first ascent from the 1960s up to the modern day.  Not that it's the sort of content you want.

Still not convinced?  Then check this out.
