your hand appears to be at least twice as long as your face! This can only be an advantage, but doesnt explain how you managed to crimp your way up 8b limestone routes for which usually you need little fingers.

Paul looks on in disgust after realising he can't crimp the sloperâ€¦

Youve got that right, I looked at it earlier and couldnt work out why on earth my fingers werent crimped??? I seem to remember it being a shoddy footwork moment too...hence the lapse.... it wont happen again.

(Dobbin: Got my body fat and stuff measured the other day, 7.7% and 56Kg - Im proud)

does this count as a muscular deformity?
or just as too much pizza?

Is that another 'friend' Nibile?

Ask them when it's due.

And to continue (not sure quite what's going on here)

Forearm-tastic ???

Blunk · January 31, 2007, 05:43:37 pm

How long are that guy's arms?!?

The forearms look about 20 inches, upper arms maybe 8?

Jim · January 31, 2007, 06:10:33 pm

they haven't made a tape measure long enough so nobody knows

Bonjoy · January 31, 2007, 06:21:27 pm

Can't you run Ryan's elbow to Ryan's tips through your TomTom and get a distance?

clm · January 31, 2007, 06:35:50 pm

never mind the forearms, look at that tiny spotter! Is it an action man?
