Jan Hojer sends Chris Sharma’s Off The Wagon from Dosage 4
In Big Up Productions Dosage 4, we see Chris Sharma and Dave Graham in Switzerland. If you have seen D4, you’ll recall that Chris is interpreting the candle wax to find how the weather will be the next day. “The wax never lies,” we hear Sharma state. And then we find Chris and Dave working a crazy line that starts from standing on top of a wagon that is parked right next to a boulder; and continues with the craziest swinging campus moves. The line is not sent in the movie and we are left wondering what happened.
As a fan of the Big Up movies, I always wondered what happened with this boulder problem. The way Big Up usually tells stories is with a hint of “to be continued” from one of their movies to the next. We see that style in Kings Lines and then Progression with Sharma working on the Clark Mountain project “Jumbo Love.” So, I expected that at some point, we would see “Off the Wagon” get sent in one of the more recent Big Up movies. Surprisingly, we never find out what happens to that problem from Big Up.
It wasn’t until I found out about Jan Hojer and finally saw the send of that beautiful boulder problem. This is a really cool vid. Enjoy!
