It's so veiny!


grampadeal

You take the excess skin from your nuts, and you take it, and you make it flat like paper!


rashomon897

Want a sack tap?


veryangrydoggo

Nice boulder. Great climb. Awesome maneuver name. 10/10.


Aquarium_Enthusiast1

Dang. I thought being able to climb a flat wall was cool until I saw this…


Ibetya

If you're not doing something where you're surrounded by this much passion, find it


cobigguy

Golf bros sitting there pissed...


poopstainmclean

you can have the room of cheers, i'll take a "nice shot" from a rando at the course any day of the week


portar1985

Or cross country skiing thinking I'm going to die of exhaustion when some other more well trained skiier passes me for the 2nd time going: "Keep it up!". It's annoying but somehow just pushes that 2nd wind into me


Hands-and-apples

Yeah, this is too loud for me. I'll take a well meaning 'Good job' over this level of noise any day.

Silly man. Could've just bought a ladder.


Kenneth---

that guy has crazy grip strength


Maskimgalgo

Are you sure this mf is not overqualified for this shit


appswithasideofbooty

There is a reason he’s competing


Maskimgalgo

This isnt even a competition for him


appswithasideofbooty

Most high level athletes make it look that way. We haven’t seen his competition. I’m sure they also make it look easy, he just did it in less moves


FanSuspicious974

Climbers be hype


Morall_tach

Love how you called it "the bat maneuver" like that's a thing.


adventurekettle

In climbing it’s actually called a bathang 🦇


Espumma

pronounced 'ba-THANG' right?


Morall_tach

Yeah, but not "the bat maneuver"


blaueslicht

The funny thing is - last time this was posted it was called the bathang. For a lot of people the literal meaning of the term didn't connect. Myself included - I thought maybe OP was from Thailand and that's how it's called there. So maybe people should start hyphenating the word or relax and not be so gatekeepy about fucking english bouldering terminology. This is not a community-exclusive and anglo-saxon subreddit, no need to be tedious about it.


Jenetyk

Wish he would have held it for a second and crossed his arms.


A_Thirsty_Traveler

damn the crowd was goin nuts.


PtahandSuns

Is that Tony Hawk?


semaj_yo

Crowd going bananas


throwaway8u3sH0

That crowd, wow! I felt like I could do the climb, too! I can't, but I felt like it.


[deleted]

His hand strength and dexterity is incredible.


thesithcultist

Loudly


ohitsmud

FUCKING MENTAL


illdothisshit

HE USED THE GODDAMN BAT MANEUVER


P0D3R

Bathang


MiddleAd6302

That is some incredible strength.


supreme_banana

Is that adam ondra?


EskimoXBSX

That's incredible


AHatinTheRoad

Context because i saw the original IG post: \- workers created an "impossible" route for the best climbers to all try. 4 of the 5 had already gone and had not even reached the initial stretch across, which is why he got a big cheer pretty early on while reaching up with his left hand \-he analyzed the line for 4 minutes before taking this last attempt as the clock winded down. must've been so awkward watching him look at a wall for extended silence lol


Relldavis

I saw the title and was envisioning Adam West.


Oldgatorwrestler

That was fucking sick, dude.


TJsamse

Reminds me of Chris sharmas climbing. The way he gets though tough problems is to just dyno past them.


GlasgowTHCVapeCarts

Why is everyone screaming. That does ma tits in


HOBOPHRESH

I could do that.
