True

Can awesome be subtle and understated at the same time? I think this proves it can. Great video. Awesome ascent and an education in impeccable technique. Nice.

[@JohnnyIDive37]

its your time Matt! Go for it, truly awesome.

[@4TechRollToll]

Amazing

[@jimmarshall9945]

[@maxwright4387]

nice work. i dig the dyneema mod on the darts. is that a leopard aluminum heel as well?

[@czarcastic1458]

Things are looking up for Matt

[@GeoffreyThomasGonzales]

oh snap nice custom crampons!!!

[@CurtAknine]

Did he really replace the link bar of these crampons with a dyneema cord ?? how is rigidity with these ? great climb !

[@LocalConArtist]

It’s a mod petzl will sell you the parts to do

[@dreembarge]

Amazing. Great technique, minimal swings. I did some soloing back in the 90's. Before leashless (and hammerless and adze-less) tools were a thing. What happens if you drop a tool halfway up? Even with leashes, I sometimes carried a spare.

Thanks for checking out the video!

Mark Twight without The Dead Puppies. (that's a compliment)

[@al_humphreys]

Terrifying!

[@rockclimber]

be careful !!!

[@baatarjavjavkhlan7319]

what’s happening with crampons?

[@LocalConArtist]

They are petzl darts with the kit cord tech replacement. It is a thing that petzl sells.

Looks like fun but not that hard. Kind of 4+? Nice boots! :)
