About 5 years ago, watched a German guy do Slopin' Sleazin' at Araps on his second or third shot. He had a photographer and a beautiful girlfriend in tow. He climbed the route in impeccable style - really precise footwork. He was wearing 5.10 velcro Anasazis. He lowered off the route, had a drink, then put on a Mammut t-shirt, clipped some Mammut draws to his harness and put on some Mammut slippers. And then went back up the route, posing for the photographer.
Mammut do make good ropes, though.
