Was that a pink point?
Honestly though, Randy is Rad period.

Thanks RyanD!
Randy Leavitt is the footwork master! One can learn much from this display of near perfection.
Pretty sure he donned the gloves for pure palm adhesion.

Amazing footwork. Yea, it didn't look easy for him. But the footwork looked sooo precise. Very nice find Ryan.

I have a love hate relationship with everyone who climbs like that! So great.
Pretty sure he donned the gloves for pure palm adhesion.
I also was doubting that he put stealth rubber gloves on just to "cover the holes in his palms."
But hey, whatever.

Pretty cool but "quiet please"?
You got to admit the guy "encouraging" him was getting annoying :)

There is some irony in shouting "focus!" while someone else is climbing :)
I can't remember watching a climbing vid that sucked me into feeling more anxious. I don't normally like electronic music soundtracks, but this one fit.
GNARLY climbing.

Why not? I was wondering about my own discomfort with that aspect.
Once "we" said that friends were cheating.
I met Randy a few times in the 80's. I was impressed.

I have nothing but the utmost respect for Randy. I've also aid climbed many pitches, I'm no purist, and am not trying to say what's "right." Just saying that I get more satisfaction when I don't wear a glove;)

That climb looks so hard!
'Am I mistaken or have Tommy Caldwell and Heinz Zak said you can chimney that at 5.10d?'
Interesting question you ask JR...

Pro was velcroed to sling in the order he would place them.
