Well, that's excellent. Dudes been working it for long enough. Hope he gets the send this year. It'd be a good Christmas present to himself.

Reading about and watching those two climb on the Dawn Wall makes me feel like I do watching Tiger Woods play golf. They all engage in the same sports I do, but they're playing a different game.

I guess my title is wrong, but I cannot change it. Well that's all the more reason for them to send.

I thought Tommy's ex-wife climbed a 14d in the Valley. We might have to get the lawyers involved.

Would this double the # of 5.14s in Yosemite?
What are the existing 5.14s?
Meltdown
Magic Line
Dihedral Wall (1 pitch?)
Nose (change corners pitch)
Magic Mushroom (1 pitch)
What else?

Awesome!
I heard through the grapevine that Kevin had freed all but three pitches and Tommy all but two pitches. Does this mean that now Tommy has freed all but one of the pitches?

Isn't it just one pitch of the 3 they haven't yet red pointed? Facts are lacking with such hype around 1 pitch.

The article mentions that the belay may have been moved below the big dyno. Was to break the pitch up. Putting a dicey dyno at start of a pitch would be easier from a freeclimbing point of view. Imagine if that huge dyno at the end of a long 14.d....woah would suck to lower and relead...but success would taste phenomenal.
