Just found this on 8a. spew. Man of the moment Pirmin Bertle dabbing at 4000m on the hardest boulder in India (Font 8B+), starts at 3:18. Not once but about 4 times on the pads! Couldn't believe this :shrug: Nice video otherwise



4000m? Kinell he may as well stayed at 400m and gone to Sheep Pen. Looks like ding dong's traverse on the main block, was half expecting him to finish up kingdom of rain.

Thats all very well 36chambers but would you have stood the moral high ground if it was somewhere that you didn't frequent? Just curious

Reluctantly yes, especially if it's a problem or grade I care about. The true satisfaction just wouldn't be there.

Mr MacLeod with a mcLOUD dab at 1:04ish.  You can hear it very distinctly,  the oh so painful sound of the unrecognized dab...

Disappointing, coming from him. Not as disappointing as his board climbing video, but disappointing nonetheless.

I initially thought it was a dab but the acoustics in that place are weird, so I think it's the sound of foot on rock. Later foot-on-rock noises sound similar.

I thought it 'could' be a boulder being clunked about by the sea coming in and out etc.,.. but the noise coincides with a cut loose and foot flail about episode - looks guilty to me...

Alas, I have reviewed the evidence. It's certainly not a clear dab, but it looks to be that way unfortunately.

 :o so that's why the weird-ass tribal warbling was so loud. Still, he's done it in overlapping halves, I'm sure he'll get it soon.

I also thought the use of "music" was a bit too smart. He could have set the video/music levels in a smarter way though.

That's why I put banging hardcore on my videos. You'll never be able to pick out the foot-mat slapping. Or any intelligble sounds at all...

It also puts people off actually watching the videos so double win......... ;)

From the other evening... No amount of techno could cover that. I kept going for the sake of it but my final reaction is quite clear...
