i'm laid up off work sick so I'm basically watching every video on bleau.info just to pass the time.

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 Nice video otherwise

[Fultonius]

Less of a dab, more of a continual slide/smear/ass drag 

[tomtom]

P-Bert certainly is the man of the moment!

[Fiend]

Bad beta for a power nap!

This is where that "repeat and refilm every bloody move from a different angle" footage works wonders, each dab gets it's full glory!

[cha1n]

This guy loved a rewind in his edits - bring that shit back!

[dave]

Tell you what, if i'd dragged the wife and kids all the way to a remote valley in india with endless rock - and I quote 'plenty' - and my best tick was a backdragging lowball dabfest then I'd not be putting a video online of it. I'd be swearing the family to secrecy and burying the footage in an abandoned mine.

[lagerstarfish]

is it Font 8B+ or is it one of the new P-Bert Access For All 8B+ ?

Surely you mean the man man man of of of the the the moment moment moment?

If this was facebook I would post the meme reaction image of Sylvester Stalone shooting 'Likes' out of a .50 cal machine gun  bravo!

[andy_e]

my word.

I love how the spotter stares at the mat afterwards, you can tell he's thinking, "surely he's not going to take the tick?"

[dave]

I swear his foot is actually underneath the mat there for a splitsecond. Spotter's doubletake is priceless.

[SA Chris]

my word.

I love how the spotter stares at the mat afterwards, you can tell he's thinking, "surely he's not going to take the tick?"

at 2:09 he actually bends down and prods the mat to make sure it is real.

[mrjonathanr]

Am I missing something? At 2.07 the spotter says 'but you dabbed' and the climber acknowledges it .... The odd bit is posting the video in the manner of a successful ascent, but neither denies the dab.

Proof that ethics, like morals, exist on a sliding scale for some folk

[Sasquatch]

"i dabbed on the jug though" 

Perfect justification

[Johnny Brown]

I'd have taken that, the pad was in the way. Fuck 'em.

[lagerstarfish]

I'd have destroyed the evidence

[Nibile]

I'd have taken that, the pad was in the way. Fuck 'em.

Word. That's a valid ascent, even worth an added + for the effort of kicking the mat away.

After many sessions I finally latched the finishing jug on Jess's Roof at Almscliff and heard a very faint scuff from my loose foot skimming the top of the pad. In horror I turned to my spotter and asked if I dabbed, he replied "I won't tell anyone if you don't want me to..."

I went back a week later to finish it off with another friend. He also dabbed on the jugs but simply said "well I'm definitely taking that".

Ethics of a tomcat, the both of you.

[a dense loner]

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
