Despite understanding from my own (low grade) climbing how the incremental gains can eventually add up to climbing something that may have initially seemed improbable, I still find watching the likes of this video mind blowing.

I mean this sort of stuff is impossible init? These videos are made in Hollywood right? There are hidden wires?

Amazing stuff.

Fab climbing, but, I think someone should stuff the fish eye lens where the sun don't shine. Doesn't make it any better.

What a pointless and intensely negative comment yet again from Robert Durran. Isn't there another website you can go to moan and bitch on? Cos you sure as hell don't seem to enjoy or appreciate anything related with climbing!

In reply to Björn Pohl - UKC: Yet another repeat of AliHulk with no sign of "The mono". Has a better sequence been found or was Dani Andrada simply showboating with the mono campus?

I entirely stand by my comment about the video. It was totally sh**.

Unless I am mistaken and we have just seen the birth of the new subsport of bouldering on small asteroids. The dynamics must be a bit different; risk of floating away rather than falling off.

Impressive climbing as far as I watched. I gave up after 2 minutes, very poor video.

Yeah, 9b is for the Ali baba sit into hulk extension (so a bit more on the start and end).

JimboWizbo: The mono on dosage is strangely shot, it's not actually on ali hulk, think it's actually part of Pichacho or one of the other problems there (it's about 10ft away from where ali baba climbs).
