REEL ROCK 14 Is Hitting Sydney And It's The Biggest Yet!

This year Mountain Equipment is super proud to be hosting the Australian Premiere of the REEL ROCK 14 Film Tour as well as other Sydney shows and thanks to Adventure Entertainment - is going to be bigger and better than ever!

As has almost come to be expected, the REEL ROCK Film Tour puts together the top picks of climbing films from the last 12 months. From the scene's biggest names, to the ones you NEED to know about, to the low profile characters that make our pastime so great, it's got the full spectrum. There will be plenty of gasps and plenty of laughs to be had. 

This year's tour has expanded with Adventure Entertainment coming on board and the Mountain Equipment leg of the tour is our biggest yet! We've moved to bigger cinemas in Sydney, being the Orpheum and Ritz, as well as adding an additional show to the Blue Mountains at Mount Vic Flicks. 

There's not a lot of excuses us climbers have to all get together for social events and we certainly look forward to these screenings every year. They're always an absolute hoot and there will be hype and prizes on the nights so don't miss it!

About This Years REEL ROCK 14 Tour

The Reel Rock Film Tour, one of climbing's greatest celebrations, returns this fall with a new collection of world premiere films. In The High Road, the powerful and bold Nina Williams tests herself on some of the highest, most difficult boulder problems ever climbed. In United States of Joe’s climbers collide with a conservative coal mining community in rural Utah, to surprising results. And in The Nose Speed Record, legends Tommy Caldwell and Alex Honnold battle Yosemite dirtbags Jim Reynolds and Brad Gobright in a high stakes race for greatness.

The High Road

While the world’s best boulderers push standards close to the ground, Nina Williams’ sights are set higher. She is among the only women who climb elite-level problems that are 30, 40, even 50 feet tall -- with no rope. In this profile of an emerging star athlete, Nina Williams flexes her guns and tests her nerves well into the no-fall zone.

The Nose Speed Record

For decades, an elite handful of climbers have competed for the coveted speed record on the 3,000-foot Nose of El Capitan, risking big falls to shave mere seconds off the fastest time. When a record held by superstar Alex Honnold is broken by little-known climbers Brad Gobright and Jim Reynolds, Honnold drafts fellow climbing legend Tommy Caldwell to establish a new mark that will stand the test of time. Honnold pushes for perfection while Caldwell, a family man, wrestles with the risk amid a series of accidents on the wall that lay bare the consequences of any mistake.

United States of Joe’s

In rural Utah, a valley of world-class bouldering is nestled among a conservative community of Mormons, cowboys and coal miners. When a ragged band of punk rock climbers shows up, the two cultures inevitably clash. After years of antagonism, a group of climbers work with locals to build a more harmonious future. But in this divided era, is that even possible?
