    Man I love the vibe. The lack of music and the working a route. Just classic.

    Another 10 years gives you time to grow the dreads back.

    : The route and Ben's FA moved climbing to a whole new level back then. Great to see him still working at a high level, still loving it, and also Rhos - just great to see both working the route. No cutaways, no fast edits, just great athletes working a great route. Fantastic.

    I called my girlfriend over, it’s Ben Moon on Statement of Youth and it’s balls hard for him. Makes me believe there’s still hope to repeat one of my (minor but personal) olde climbing successes. Inspired :0)

      @@maybenj25 maybe just being funny.. probably feeling kinda defeated on such a hard route. That he FA’d so long ago.

    I do revisit. Where nobody else had been before. Nor is the
    extent available from orbital photography provider services.
    NASA will study what I find if it is unknown to science. If on-
    rope or not. I joined this organized outdoor activity in 1964.

    You can see Ben in his 20s doing this route (not the FA but still great footage from a bygone era) ua-cam.com/video/Jkj3Buhfi2k/v-deo.html
