Looks legit to me.

Also a 2:16 clip where he pulls on properly at 1:00?

I just cannot get my head around why these people upload the video's of their 'accent' with dabs which are this awful
Whatever, if you genuinely feel that your dab in no way assisted with the climb, then go ahead and take the personal tick for it. If you really must share it, then just post a video still.

But to share the full video, at best you are asking for ridicule, and at worst may be making new climbers think this is acceptable

oh this is a very special case. a regular style dab may help a little, but by kicking the pad away this dab gives our hero little choice but to send. this lad knows whats what. :goodidea:

After neglecting this thread for a while it caught my eye and I've binged on it. Sat hunched, crying with laughter, abs aching, a flush of panic reminds me I'm at work. Rumbled by a colleague she asks 'why are you crying?'

Happily shes a castle punter so I try to explain it to her. She says 'thats sounds mean!'

I defend our position successfully with some work from that clown george atherton. She knows its not legit george. We all know.

From about 1 minute in. Looks complicated with mats, probably need a siesta en route.

I like the fact he looks surprised when it happens.

if the first ascent is a female ascent, then when does it get downgraded?

I mean; normally we downgrade stuff after the first female ascent and you can't downgrade from not being graded

is there some guidance from Climb UKIP or whatever it's called now?

we can't be seen to be soft on people just because they are small children having fun

The name of the problem flashes up in the video, if you miss it you can go back a few seconds and watch it again.

This is why I have such respect for Slackline. Anyone else would have seen Coops' post and gone "Bloody hell, Ross, open yer eyeballs mate" and moved on. But Slackline will not rest, he will not tire, he will not stay his fingertips from keyboard, until everyone, everywhere, is correct. The dogged persistence with which he corrects even the most minor lapses in concentration is nothing short of breath-taking.

The network drives at work had crashed and I was killing time as I can't SSH into my home server today.

The full line, which tackles the entire prow, gets 7B+. I checked it out last year but it was wet, it's not too far from Roche aux Sabots.
