This is really good! You can absolutely feel the pump!

Watch Petzl Team member Brooke Raboutou as she navigates the 2019 competition season at home in the U.S. and on the World Cup circuit. Balancing a hectic travel schedule and her first semester as a full-time university student, Brooke commits herself to excel in both climbing and studies.

From 5.13 big walls in Yosemite to 5.14 sport climbs in Mexico to V14 boulder problems in Colorado, Pretty Strong follows 10 of the world’s strongest female climbers as they explore new climbing areas, send hard projects, and push the boundaries of the sport and themselves. Putting badass ladies front and center, this film isn’t about gender imbalance, or the sexualization of women, or what it’s like to have your period at the crag. This is a film about some of the best climbers in the world—some you know, some you don’t—doing what they do best: crushing hard rock climbs. The climbers featured include Nina Williams, Katie Lambert, Daila Ojeda, Hazel Findlay, Fernanda Rodriguez, and more. Pretty Strong is a climbing film about women, by women, and for everyone.

Observe Matt Gentile as he scours the mind-altering landscapes of Northern Arizona in search of elusive beasts. Behold the sights. Hear the sounds. Acknowledge the shapes. Bear witness to climbing as it was prophesied, Human and Earth clashing souls in a magnificent dance. This is Rooftown.
