Sweet!!!!!

 

You left me hanging..... did you send the A5?

 

What I liked best was no fist pumping boulder topouts, no flexing or screaming, no dry humping the rock on a FA. Just strait up hard climbing.

WOW!!! How do you free and A5 pitch?!?!?!!?!

 

 

haha, aid climbing and free climbing grades really have nothing to do with each other, an A5 pitch could be an entire ropelength of hooking on sketchy flakes that could really go free at a moderate grade (just with no reliable pro) while an A1 pitch could be all small wires and microcams in a splitter crack that is too thin for tips. An A0 pitch is probably just a bolt ladder with no holds that wont go free at all!

 

 

Just look at Leo Houlding's route 'The Prophet' on El Cap. The crux pitch that went at 13d R was an 'A1' thin crack.... while some A4 pitch went at 5.11d just with no pro....

I hope someone will pass along some positive feedback and encouragement to Cody. This short is definitely high quality, with good audiovisual story telling, good music, and money climbing shots.

 

And here's hoping Marc has a great fall season at Squish and that some of it gets captured on film to inspire us mortals.
