He's not in the habit of freesoloing junk.

Down climb or running leap into the sea, it's all the same to SuperSolo.
He's in his fortress of solo-tude futurizing as we gaze in awe.

That's a sweet pic!!! Wow.
how much longer before Hondo gets hip to BASE?
the idea of down climbing what looks like to be a chossy formation would convince me.

ah ... missed this thread. The TNF team with Honnold, Hazel Findlay, Mark Synott, etc were on the coast of Musandam, the northern enclave of Oman just north and east of Dubai. Musandam has been developed by UAE based climbers so is described in the "UAE Rock Climbing" guidebook. There's plenty of big limestone chossaneering on that coast (as well as inland) but it's better suited to DWS. Lots of recent activity http://www.redarmadapublishing.com/blog/?tag=dws
