G-spotter Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 http://www.ukclimbing.com/news/item.php?id=60048 Now even if he did it naked, I'm certain there is someone out there who would still criticize his ascent for being rehearsed and not a true onsight naked barefoot freesolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter_Puget Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Sure it’s kind of groovy but in many ways its another indication of the cul–de-sac that is fast approaching. As climbing becomes more and more a thinly veiled competition between men it becomes almost indistinguishable form all the other bullshit in life.

billcoe Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 On the use of chalk: I'm not good without it, I also use chalk on my feet. LOL, at least you didn't call out "CHALK IS AID" Drew! Nice find, and thanks for sharing it. Can anyone tell me where the hard part is suppose to be? It must be the camera work ...does anyone else think that it doesn't look that hard from the vid.

111 Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 ...does anyone else think that it doesn't look that hard from the vid. You did see him dangle at the end right? It is quite overhung! The straight on camera angle definitely isnt the best for showing the route, but the top half looked to be at least 10-15 degrees overhanging.

pazzo Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Meh. It would be a different issue if he were barefoot soloing a hard crack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
