Take a look at the best content that landed this past week, from the world of Red Bull. // Photographer: Victoria Kohner-Flanagan, Athlete: Jack Nugent, Location: Bishop, CA, United States About the shot: My friends and I spent the winter of 2021 living communally in an assortment of vans and cars amidst the Buttermilk's monstrous granite boulders in Bishop, California. Our days looked like this: wake up, drink coffee, go climb. With our bouldering season coming to a close, as the snow melted and thoughts of long Yosemite climbs loomed, Jack grew eager to test his fitness on 'Queen of Heartbreaks' in Pine Creek Canyon. Before tying into the sharp end Jack was clearly nervous. From the ground, the route's 39 meters were daunting and blank. The holds remained obscured to me even as I ascended the fixed line to find the best position to shoot from. The sky darkened and the winds picked up as Jack stepped onto the climb for his onsight attempt. Questing up the blank face, Jack found a cheeky no hands rest. Doubt cleared from his face as I snapped the shot. Even as it started raining upwards, Jack cruised to the chains. All images are free for editorial use in the context of Red Bull Illume.
