Holy sh##! Hollywood Hans has still got it, after all these years. No sign of Hume, Sharma, Caldwell - they were last spotted heading off with Klem Loskot to Todd Skinner's rancho de power somewhere near Hueco with a weeks supply of twinkies, beer, protein powder, a guitar and a copy Fred Nicole's autobiography "How da got strong"

U.S. Climbing Team Chosen (from climbing dot com)
By Dougald MacDonald

The 2005 U.S. Climbing Team for difficulty (roped) and speed climbing was selected March 5-6 at the USA Climbing Nationals, presented by Sterling Rope and Stone Age Climbing. Canadian Sean McColl won the men's difficulty comp at the Mission Cliffs gym in San Francisco, but Californian Ethan Pringle was the top American and will head the men's team, while Boulder-based Emily Harrington leads the women's team. Veteran speed champ Hans Florine showed he still has it, edging Patrick Cassiday by less than half a second in the speed finals. Mykael-Ann McGinley easily won the women's speed finals.
