    RIP Dean
    You were the best that ever was. I know you will climb all the way up to heaven and make it.

    His footwork technique for this is amazing.

      All I kept thinking about while watching this, his technique was super creative...interesting thinking about how you would go about it and if you would ever think to make a small change like that? Shows just how good he was, it's those slight ways of adjusting to a route that can make you great

      +Jabukufo tried this technique recently on a lieback corner. Makes liebacking significantly easier, really rad technique!

    Falling 60 ' has to hurt when the slack is gone.Then to repeat 15 times shows how determined Potter climbs. Nerves of steel !

    Bad blood towards the end I suppose, but there was never a more dynamic duo. Legends. Steph and Dean.

    I really don't like seeing all these Alex Hohnold comparisons in the comment section. What this guy is doing is pretty spectacular. I hate to see people who have absolutely no right, detract from someone else's climbing accomplishments. It's an arbitrary comparison, free soloing is just not the same game as sport climbing

    • @stebostock20
      @stebostock20 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is spectacular but this isn't sport climbing either is it?

    The use of a piton would disqualify it from being a free climb FA, since pitons are considered aid equipment.

      Kons Shreds A fixed pin is not aid if you don’t aid on it. In other words if you don’t weight it and just clip a quickdraw it is still free climbing
