I'm sittin' here (with all the gals, no doubt), eatin' my heart out. They just don't make drop-dead gorgeous lycra like that anymore.
If they did, we'd all be wearing it!

NO!
Don't bring Lycra back! Remember all the fat people wearing Lycra?!
Disturbing...
Yeah... I can enjoy seeing athletes wearing it but heck... It never remains where it belongs.
Blah...
Reason one I rebelled against Lycra when it was part of my High School track uniform and grabbed instead the mini shorts from the 70's.
Too many out of shape moms wore it for my taste.

My first time climbing was at Point Dume and I remember a guy free soloing, doing laps next to me during this historic occasion. It was a very interesting sight.
He was wearing a speedo...

Ksolem and Sewellymon--
Yes Aero Space is the route, you all got it. And I apologize for the slide reversal. Climbed it 21 years ago and didn't remember the route well enough to catch my mistake.
Cheers.

His famous purple-zebra shot must not be left out of this thread.

I could only wear black tights. I wish I had applied that thinking to the shoes.
I thought Laura looked damn good in her shiny frost green lycra:
My German friend Ingo going for it fashion wise as well as through this crux:

Great Thread.
RE:

I can.
Z crack. 5.9/10a (maybe)
Pinnacles, Easter Island Group.
Deerhorn Valley, California.
might know the guy who did the FA on a lot of those little climbs :)
wow. thanks for posting that one BrassNuts dude
(I honestly thought the move to grab the in-cut at the top, made off that (kinda deceptive) sloping jam you're setting w/ your left in the pic, was .10a, BUT - hey, I'm way short SO - if someone today said 5.8, I'd say "good job!")
BTW - for travelers looking for really warm high quality cragging in So Cal winter - this link will get you there.
http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20060225/news_lz1dd24mother.html
can see the rocks from road - approach fairly obvious - do a repeat of the Fang OW the way the FA was done...no pro bro!
