In badass accent:

For me, it's the point where I find out whether I'm able to transfer for 100% of my power onto the rock...

Minus the weird syntax of that stray "for," this is the question I pose to myself at the outset of each and every lead.

A link forwarded to me just yesterday, from the Center of the Center of the Universe:

why tape your hands if you are going to layback a hand crack?

I don't know what to say. If it's supposed to be nice then...nice fall dude.

Alex Huber makes that 5.13 R pitch look like he's climbing the 5.7 pitch of nutcracker...

Dhayan, that's true about Huber. God damn is he smooth.

I don't know the person in the Nutcracker vid, but who knows? Maybe he was linking up with some heinous rattly-fists nightmare after he was done at Manure Pile. Or he just likes wearing gloves for his own reasons?

Such a great 5.7 pitch, what a crazy fall--where is the pro that's so easy to get there? Good thing you have to step right from that ledge at the start!
