This film is part of a trilogy about the top British climbers such as Steve McClure, Andy Kirkpatrick, Ian Parnell and Dave Birkett. Magic number in particular deals with the passion for sport climbing. Steve McClure is Britain’s most accomplished sport climber as the awesome action footage in this film demonstrates. Beyond an 8c first ascent and some flashes during the French Climbing Festival, we can see most of Steve’s fabulous 9A ascents at Britain’s steepest limestone crags, including his latest Kilnsey Crimpfest.
