He and I had better not shake hands or touch each other because if we do we will cancel each other out. I am slowwwwwww. We may just end up going up in a poof of smoke and no longer exist on the plane of reality. WOW!

If you stopped videotaping everything I bet you could shave hours off your next ascent :ass:

That's the King Swing right?

 

I've seen a few videos of climbers - speed climbers, doing the swing way up high like Hondo did. The typical wall style guys/girls go way down low and do the 50 yard dash. I assume it's becuase the climbing way up high, once you change systems, is hard - anybody in the know?

I haven't done it up high, that looked impossible. Done it twice down low, with a hook in the midway bolt (or was it a pin?) both times, where it is fun! Can't imagine the athletics involved with less rope out.
