> Annoying comments to say the least. It is obvious that the clmber and the production team are not choosing to embelish the whole subject matter.If you think that ,they are you are complete f!@£ w*^&@.The guy is a long way up on technically difficult terrain ...even if it is a slab. Hell!Isn't Dawes of Perception"just a slab? He has more talent and balls than 99.99999% of the vast majority of so called climbers on this site. Unfortunately couldn't resist placing a comment on this topic.To set a challenge I would suggest that those who have a negative view on Aklex Honnolds ascent on said route go and do it and then post on how it is just a slab.T@^%$£
Oh dear..... You have completely and utterly and actually quite embarrassingly missed the point. Absolutely nobody is seeking to diminish the ascent; if anything, as somebody pointed out, if it's a slab of that grade then it's even more boggling than if it's steep. It would just be preferable to have a camera angle better reflecting the reality of the situation.
