Plaidman Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) This is a video I took with my phone while solo aiding Ground Zero at Beacon Rock. It took some work to convert the files from the file format that my phone uses. I converted it to AVI file format. Then I was able to dump it into Sony Vegas. That is a video editing program. I hacked the several small clips from my phone into one 13 min short video. Then I had to get another program to burn it onto a DVD. It was fun project. Almost as fun as the climbing.

ivan Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 hey, i'm doing that this weekend - quit stealing my ideas! did you do the 2nd pitch? Quote
Plaidman Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 hey, i'm doing that this weekend - quit stealing my ideas! did you do the 2nd pitch? I stole the idea from several other people before you. I have not done the 2nd pitch yet. Plaidman Quote

I have not done the 2nd pitch yet. Plaidman next time just rap in from grassy ledges - the first pitch is bogus, the 2nd is sublime - i'm gonna fix the first one 2night and enjoy the ledge scene, then finish it up on saturday - think i'm gonna then rap into flight time and do that fucker's 2nd pitch as ben was good enough to clean all the brush out of it last week!

JosephH Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 Ivan, how about replacing the Flightime pro and anchors while you're at it. I'm currently nursing what turned out to be a broken finger, but I could swing by with the drilling rig and necessary bolts and hangers. You could leave the old aluminum poptop bolts to give folks some historical perspective on the FA. Quote
ivan Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 i'm out the door right now and will be at beacon through sunday if you wanna swing by - i watched ben n' geoff put all their weight on it (backed up w/ a nut) so i'm not worried about it at the moment but yeah, it could use replacment Quote

ivan Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 the 2nd pitch of GZ which has been eschewed by so many oddballs this summer is now clean and waiting for all - picking the wildflowers and fern fronds out of the cracks to expose the critical nut placements makes getting the fa of the season oh-so-worthwhile Quote

Is that your thumb Bill? I have only rapped with a munter once as an experiment to see if it worked. It works. I never thought of putting my thumb in it though. I can see it is a bad idea.
