Watch Epic Ice Climb Highline Clipped to V-Threads

Pro highliners Lukas Irmler and Pablo Signoret walk between two ice climbs on a highline attached to V-threads in France.

The climbs are in Grenoble and this 430-metre-long line took five days to rig and suspended about 170 metres above the valley.

The anchors were clipped to equalized V-threads (abalakovs) and backed up to existing bolts at the tops of the climbs.

Videographer Pierre Chauffour said, “We’ve been so happy that we did it, it was a dream that came a reality. For Pablo and Lukas, it was incredible.

“The venue is awesome, and this crazy idea motivated them a lot. Usually, a highline is on top of everything. But here, it was attached in the middle of a gigantic ice waterfall.

“So, it makes you feel even smaller than what you’re used to while being in such places.”
