" Black Diamond athletes Kate Rutherford and Brittany Griffith hiked in to the High Sierras' famed Incredible Hulk to have a go at the 1200-foot granite wall’s prime line, Venturi Effect. Stacked with numerous techy pitches of 5.11 and 5.12 stemming and jamming, the pair gave it all they had. Though they came up short of a redpoint, Andrew Burr did come back with some great footage from the adventure that we have since edited into the video below. To read Kate's report and see some sweet photos by Burr, go to: blackdiamondequipment.com/en-us/journal/climb/all/bd-athletes-kate-rutherford-and-brittany-griffith-attempt-venturi-effect-iv-512-on-the-incredible-hulk-high-sierras-california"

Not a trad climber, so I have a question. How does redpoint work on a multi-pitch trad route? Do you have to climb from the ground up without falling?

I am not able to view video links like the above. It might be this Internet Explorer 10 that automatically updated from IE9. Anybody got a suggestion?
