soap209,

the huber's are done with the el cap, they wont come back again for any project and they won't participate the speed race again (... it is endless) - so far as I know

[mescalito69]

soap29,

who was that ? do you have names and the exact time ? since hans & yuji shaved off 7 minutes of the huber record, so who hold really now the record ?

[Billieboy43]

...okay, does anybody know, that they tried it one year earlier?One of the brothers fall about 12 or 15 meters and broke (only) his leg...but they did it again and got the record...

[mescalito69]

yeah billieboy43,

this happened while making the movie "to the limit", one year later they got the record and lost it this year ....

[Billieboy43]

@mescalito69 ...that´s right man...and by the way...I´ve got a video about climbing the eiger northface live...it´s a german and swiss coproduction from 99 and real great...the only problem is that they speak a special german-swiss-dialect, that nobody can understand, even me...interested????

[valkyrie1960s]

give me that shit i can understand it

[turbodog411]

Yea dude its called jugging. You should give it a shot. But make sure you are all alon when you try it for the first time.

[kaarevale]

Great moves.. Can anyone tell me what technique the one that walks up the rope last is using? Any idea? how he can walk the rope with both he`s feet?

Kaare

1st music-part is a supplement to the video editing software, the 2nd is "keep on running" spencer davies group ...

[dudu87]

whats the name of the first song?

[mescalito69]

he has already regained the record in June 2008 by shaving off another some 2 min. Hans and Yuji still want to shave down the record even more .....

[anabacmystery]

is Hans Florine going to try and recapture the record or has he given up? what is he up to these days?

[dmosier]

light and fast they did not have a big rack or even much water...wow

[juniorb721]

HA!  I wish my fat ass could do that. Nice climb my friend, nice climb

[heavydutyfruity1]

this is the most awesome thing ive seen! im going to climb something!

[mescalito69]

well, hope you have awsome fun on your next climb, but what is shown here is even for a normal top climber impossible to perform, but the video transports a lot of inspirings ... eehhhh

[SirenoJuan]

why do you say it impossible for a normal top climber to perform? I fail to see what the impossible here is. Please explain.

[mescalito69]

(alsmost) impossible is the speed, the time and the taken risk over 3000 ft. why are there so little top climbers doing the nose in less than 5 hrs ?
