   Now I know what I’m doing wrong when I’m climbing. Not screaming enough.

   Cool to see Core cheering him on.  I really wish the video quality was a bit clearer.

     Agree. I wasn’t sure you could even film in non-HD these days. Either way, nice to see the footage so soon.

     Here’s Christian Core climbing “Gioia Sit Start 8C+” on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBivfjAU_fA

     It appears to be more of an extension to Gioia 8A+ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkG0VQbJrR8) than a SDS per se.

       It wouldn’t be the first time a problem deemed a “sit-start” was never really climbed from sitting on the ground . . . quite an issue in many cases for those concerned about doing a problem from the correct start.

   Always impressive to see how perfect his technique is, no matter how hard he’s trying. Can learn a lot from that

     His technique is really not perfect at all… it’s unique for sure, but not perfect.

       So whats perfect technique to you? I think near perfect technique comes with someone who climbs one of the hardest rock climbs in the world.

      Good question.  Seems a little late to unring this bell.
