Arguably first proper repeat as he matched the Greenheart connection undercut which barrows didn't? 
Amazing effort

Matter of perspective. First repeat with the original beta. Whether you use the word 'proper' or not depends on your view of kneebars. It's a fuck load harder that's for sure!

[Doylo]

It's not just about the undercut crux either. There's a tricky move at the end of Rockatrocity to get your left hand in the penultimate pocket (hard on the link) which Barrows didn't do. Plus hardly shaking out anywhere along it (apart from a few quick one arm hangs, hardly restful!).

wow what a monster 

Wathcing this is the kind of thing that motivates me to get in the cave

Monkey boy doesn't miss a trick with his media appearances either!

What's with the heel on the end of beaver cleaver? Bet Malc didn't do that.

Haha, Malc did use a heel just not on that move! Shook out with a heel in for a few minutes on the video. Mike makes it look easier on the whole in my opinion, barely stops to shake anywhere. Impressive that it didn't take him long and probably didn't have to spend as much on petrol as Malc. He does match the RA flake though!

[Luke Owens]

Just watched the video; not often you see something that hard being made to look so easy! Seriously inspired!

Fucking brilliant.

[Mumra]

Does anyone not match the RA flake?

[nik at work]

Brilliant!!

Does anyone not match the RA flake?

A few but not many. I was referring to Malc's ascent really though, he didn't match.

Matching is Anti-Power

Beautiful and composed style.

[dave]

Makes it look piss! Fingers of steel

HOLD THE FUCK ON. Just watched the Malc video. The bad news is it looks from the vid like Mike didn't go to the finishing holds, so technically hasn't done it.

The good news is neither did Barrows, to it means the second ascent is still up for grabs. And Barrows is out of the country! Come on Mike, glory awaits. PSYCHE.

[Nibile]

Fuck me. It seemed to me that Mike was jumping off from a lower height. I remembered a bigger jump from Malc.

[Monolith]

I'm 100% not kidding when I say that he could do this in his trainers. A re-ascent should prove no issue.

[a dense loner]

He doesn't need to do anything else apart from put his feet up and masterbate in a chair at his own leisure whilst safe in the knowledge that he's probably one of the strongest fittest climbers on the planet.

I'd get this from masturbating in my chair..

I'm pleased to say that he's been keen to accept whisky-based sponsorship in the past. Just have to get him to like the stuff now.

I hope to read in a ukc news interview when asked 'So, what's next?' , Mike H reply 'Well Natalie, a few plans which I'm keeping close to my chest, but short-term I plan to put my feet up and masturbate in a chair safe in the knowledge that I'm probably among the fittest strongest climbers on the planet'.

I might put something similar in my Personal Development Review this year

[lagerstarfish]

for those who have never seen him during daylight - that's what Jasper looks like when he knows what he's doing - fast, accurate foot placement

Obviously Mike has a few holding on and puling skills in addition to the feet

Fuck me. It seemed to me that Mike was jumping off from a lower height. I remembered a bigger jump from Malc.

I gather that the level of the Cave has dropped significantly over the lastcouple of decades as the base is infill. Where did Ben Moon fail compared to Mike ? (Question directed generally)
