Awesome video. I've been learning through your book and practicing leading aid on a bolt line on a vertical wall in my gym a couple days a week. I have a question regarding use of the fifi hook: Why not just use the quick-draw for high stepping and ditch the fifi altogether? It seems to just add an extra step when I get on my fifi, clip the quick draw, then take the fifi off and top step. Is there an advantage to using the fifi at times where a quick-draw doesn't cut it, just when top stepping is strenuous?
So the purpose of the daisy chains here is only not to drop the aiders? 'cause you don't use them to reach any higher, as far as l could understand. Thanks
a video on aiding roofs would be great. aiding horizontal roof cracks seems pretty different from slightly overhung stuff.

Fabio Spelta He mentions that they can be useful for testing placements on hard aid pitches.
Anyways. Really funny video.
Any idea on how to look goofier? It's just that aid climbing is a joke! 🤣
