By Remo From: Madison, WI Aug 10, 2009 rating: V6 Sweet! Good work finding it again Steve.
By SteveSchultz Oct 12, 2009 Very cool problem! It comes down to one hard move and I can't wait to come back again and do it! Fun gymnastic moves on an overhanging arete!!
By Remo From: Madison, WI Oct 13, 2009 rating: V6 Agreed with Steve. This problem is awesome, can't wait to try it again. Sweaty shows up and just crushed it. So strong Sweaty!
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Oct 13, 2009 rating: V8 Here's the video of the send. compliments of professional videographer Steve :-)
By SteveSchultz Oct 14, 2009 I'm a pretty kickass videographer Sweaty. You're lucky I used my talents on you.
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Oct 14, 2009 rating: V8 That's why I made sure to give you credit :-) To be fair though I thought the video thru the crux was very well done. However, once i get to the jugs my ass was litterally in your face. kind of hard to do anything with the camera at that point.
By Peter DeSalvo Oct 20, 2009 Nice send. Your beta is way different and harder ...HA
By Peter DeSalvo Oct 20, 2009 There are alot of problems that need to be done between jega and massive vertigo. Alot with very bad landings!
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Oct 20, 2009 rating: V8 What was your beta man?
By Peter DeSalvo Oct 20, 2009 heel on the start hold and go for the pitch below the crimper you use then right to the sloppy pinch
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Oct 20, 2009 rating: V8 huh interesting. Did Andy and Kevin try it that way too? how did it work for them?
By Peter DeSalvo Oct 20, 2009 we were all kinda close but that move is the stopper for sure. They got jenga pretty fast too.
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Nov 9, 2009 rating: V8 and = gayer... Good job on the send buddy :-)
By nicros fivten Nov 9, 2009 rating: V6+ Sweaty. 2 words. ALPINE CLUB.
By nicros fivten Nov 9, 2009 rating: V6+ BOOSH! NIC+KNEE PAD= RAD! I win again.
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Nov 9, 2009 rating: V8 Why u have to rub in the fact that u are strong and I'm a sally.
By nicros fivten Nov 9, 2009 rating: V6+ Not stronger, I just own a knee pad. Sorry. Can we make up?
By SteveSchultz Nov 9, 2009 Make out is the proper term, Nic. Get it together!
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il Nov 10, 2009 rating: V8 I'm down with doing either :-)
By Remo From: Madison, WI 5 days ago rating: V6 The knee bar is the money beta. We had a send train using the knee pad. It did feel like cheating a bit, but it is still a great problem.
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il 5 days ago rating: V8 Fucking kneepads. lol. great job guys. sickness!
By nicros fivten 5 days ago rating: V6+ I have done a few things at devil's lake, none are greater than finding that knee-bar.
By Dobbe 5 days ago Knee pad=3 sends in four try's! Maybe more like 6 that way.
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il 5 days ago rating: V8 You guys had a killer day. And you sir have been on a wisconsin rampage this week. I'm glad it wasn't to cold for you guys to climb and you were all able to get some shit dealt with. most excellent.
By sweatpants From: Chicago, Il 5 days ago rating: V8 p.s. Nic I'll never forgive you...
By Peter DeSalvo 5 days ago knee pads??? What is this Rifle? So who is down for going up this weekend and searching for some boulders?
