Whilst there's a bunch of defensive lanks all in one place I thought I might take the opportunity to hijack the thread and ask if anyone could recommend a decent pair of climbing pants for those who are tall (6' 4") and skinny?

Seems like a daft question, but we have no decent kit shops here in Ireland and mail order without beta is bound to be a lottery.

Back on the subject of dynos. I occasionally enjoy them too, but never count them as stuff I have done at the grade unless it's one of those rock and hop type harder for lanks ones.

Prana stretch Zion are long enough for my pins and I'm a skinny 6'5". Great climbing kegs, but they have updated them recently so should check they're still the same fit.

I liked parts of it (aside from the obvious) - but needed some more actual sound over the music... Quite liked the rotoscope section the first time, and too much time lapse, but nice problems.

Anyone know who the climbers are?

Awesome, great ascents and good filming angle. Holds look so bad! Also great FA by Keenus, no pads and a slider he didn't trust!

Is this a kneepad or a bouldering pad? I just never know these days.

No blow-torching in this one.  Looks great  :w00t:



Good comment about finding easier sequences (viz. kneebars perhaps?) and downgrading at around 8mins, concludes with "more aesthetic in the lines than the grading"

rock looks more than a little wet on that last bloc, unless the boulders at apremont are significantly darker than the rest of the forest

I trust that you're joking.

I get upset at the number of videos of heros sending projects in the wet, cos it's somehow acceptable to destroy the rock if you're capable of being a hero.
