Just for Fun

Here is a little clip that was fun to make. I recently deadwooded these codominant sweetgum leads. On the way down I played around some...just for fun. Life can't (or shouldn't) be all serious.

pantheraba, that was pretty classic. felt a little woozy myself with all those turns. how many times did you have to spin back around to straighten your line out?? /forum/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

There my friends is the new event for ISA ITCC. Gary I thought that was cool, you can gain alot of finesse in your climbing/foot placement by practice. It also looked fun.

Several, when I didn't pay close enough attention. I tried to just reverse myself each time. I suppose a Petzl swivel would have made that a moot point.

Ha...wouldn't that be cool at ITCC!! Re: finesse, it does make you pay attention to proper placement for controlled landings...improving skill while having fun is a great way to go.

Nice balanced turns!! Loved it !!!It truly does convey that glorious weightless feeling of being perfectly balanced below your anchor point.Normally we are all too busy getting the job done to truly appreciate the wonder of our environment fully, this video reminds me of what its all about.
Nice one Sir!!

And, Thank YOU, sir. You are right, it was just plain fun...taking time out from the work part of it to play.
