5.0 out of 5 stars Facinating
I've never purchased a rock climbing video or dvd before, so I didn't know what to expect. I read reviews on Amazon and other web sites which repeatedly said this dvd was "high quality" and lacked the childish stunts apparently included in other climbing dvds. After watching "King Lines", I have to agree.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Climbing, Poor Video
Sharma is an incredible climber to watch and the video has some great shots of him climbing, but really tough to hold interest in their words. A great video for incredible climbing, but very poor in script....

I've never purchased a rock climbing video or dvd before, so I didn't know what to expect. I read reviews on Amazon and other web sites which repeatedly said this dvd was "high quality" and lacked the childish stunts apparently included in other climbing dvds. After watching "King Lines", I have to agree.

When it first starts out, you get a lot of commercials and some kind of "fast-editing" introduction. Thankfully, the rest wasn't like that. You get to find out who Chris Sharma is. He lives a life very different from most people. He engages in a sport very different from most sports.

I would never do what he does, but for some reason, I am facinatated by it. The things Chris and the other climbers do are just incredible, not to mention dangerous. This video will teach you that to accomplish a goal, you must be passionate about it and never give up. Tremendous job.

Highly recommended for anyone even remotely interested in rock climbing. Makes an unusual and entertaining gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring, December 29, 2007
This movie provides a balance between inspiring scenes of extremely technical climbing with insights into Chris Sharma's personal life. Highly recommended for anyone that finds climbing to be a spiritual experience.

This is a great climbing video. It documents many of Sharma's past acheivements through his most recent deep-water solo ascent. The adaquate funding for this video is reflected in its exotic locations, expert editing and quality film resolution.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sharma Inspires, April 1, 2009

Beautiful film work. The scenery is breathtaking. The HD really adds to the quality. Chris Sharma really inspires the new generation of climbers to take climbing to a higher level. Chris is a pioneer who innovates the sport. He is a very humble individual who never gloats or boasts about his skill. He is an ideal role model and this movie clearly shows that. The music combined with the suspense of the ascent really puts the viewer on the "edge". I caught myself saying "Whoah...now that is just crazy". I recommend this video for all climbers(new and experienced) and for all nature lovers. Very inspirational.

Amazing climbing in amazingly beautiful places. David Graham lends some comic relief during his brief appearances.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another quality climbing video, November 11, 2007
This review is from: King Lines (DVD)
This video is off the hook. Sharma is one of the most interesting climbers to me because of his philosophy and insane strength. This video illustrates both of these things very well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best climbing movie yet!, December 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: King Lines (DVD)
This movie is a fascinating look at Chris Sharma and the world of high-level climbing. The cinematography is amazing and it's not just climbing stunts; really shows how Sharma works on those 5.15 climbs in the middle of the ocean! Fun for climbing kids too; there's one PG-language moment (Sharma's partner says "I'm not your wall *itch") but otherwise lots of inspiration for all ages!
