This 11-minute clip documents Angie Scarth-Johnson sending Ain't No Sunshine, listed at Ewbank 28 / French 7c+, at Nowra in New South Wales, Australia. The footage focuses on her attempts and the successful redpoint; the uploader notes the line is noticeably harder when the rock is wet, so conditions are part of what the video records as much as the movement itself. The piece is useful as a compact record of a hard sport route ascent by an active Australian climber. Alongside the climbing footage the upload lists Angie’s local support (The North Face Australia & New Zealand, CAMP, Climbing Anchors, Tenaya, Climbskin, ICP & CaCalbet), which helps place the video in the context of her climbing at that time (2015).
