Jordan Cannon

Jordan Cannon is the central climber in a focused record of modern Yosemite big‑wall free climbing: Arc'teryx Presents: Wet Lycra Nightmare follows Cannon and Sam Stroh on Wet Lycra Nightmare, a steep free line on Leaning Tower rated 5.13d. The film documents a high‑stakes day in which Cannon falls near a crux pitch, remains committed to partner support, and then watches Stroh complete the lead—an action the film credits as making her the fifth person to free the route.

The piece also shows Cannon returning the following season to redpoint the wall over two days, and the footage is useful for climbers wanting a compact primer on big‑wall redpointing logistics: sequence work on sustained 5.13d terrain, pitch structure, haul and hauling-free tactics, and the partner coordination required to sustain a long free ascent. Alex Honnold appears in a supporting or archival capacity, and the film’s chaptered edits make the route’s movement and tactical challenges accessible to viewers who want a clear record of how a modern Yosemite multi‑pitch free ascent unfolds.
