Watch Alex Bourassa’s First Ascent of New B.C. 5.13d

A raw edit by Dave Mai of Alex Bourassa’s first ascent of Clockwork 5.13d at New World in Skaha. The route was bolted by Cody Leydon.

Bourassa made the first ascent of Finding Gnarnia 5.13b at New World in the summer of 2015 and Clockwork in the fall of 2015.

After sending Clockwork, he wrote on Sendage.com, “Finally!! Longest project to date! Seven days, around 30 attempts, fell on the last move three times. Definately psyched to have stuck with it! So SICK!!

“Thanks to Cody again for another spectacular line and to both pat and his constant psych and belays.”
