Trad Climbing on Feast of Fools at The Gunks, NY 

this is my favorate youtuber EVER YES I AM YELLING

Love your videos man! You help inspire me to get out more and climb more! Thank you for that!

Diverse route! Horizontals right where you need them... Good job!

Up until the roof I was wondering where the 5.10 rating came from

New to trad- can you quickly run thru the advantages of clipping your alpine draws into the cam sling, leaving the racking biner hanging (vs. clipping the racking biner into the runner)? Do you find it easier than keeping slings (w/ one biner) over your shoulder? I could see it being sketch to take a sling off your shoulder in many stances, but I also see you fumble around w/ unracking the runner, which while pumped might also be scary.. Also, w/ a full rack, the weight of all those unused racking biners adds up, right? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I climb like you, but my friends all use the shoulder sling technique.

May I ask why you extend almost every draw you place? I understand that sometimes it's better to extend such as right before the roof where having it too close would result in a whipper, but in alot of ur vids I feel like most of them don't need an extension! Genuinely just interested, I've never climbed trad before :)

cool video! could you start making more bouldering videos?

Did you do the 2nd pitch? It's quite good and tricky.

Great video ! did you climb it today ?

I feel like im cheating on a test

Most definitely too far right at the first roof. Grab the pancake, hand traverse right a bit, then up. Wrapping around the arete has long time been considered "cheating" ;-)
