Wish it wasn't in slo-mo, or at least was shown at normal speed first.

Disagree. I think it is perfectly edited to the music. Nice work. Pity it wasn't shown at Goatfest - it would have won for sure.

But why isn't the climber named in the credits?

Would you really want to have your name pinned to that?

Object lesson in keeping the rope over your leg - if you can.

Meh, who didn't do that sort of stuff when they were young though? For the first year or so, I always used to come back from climbing with ropeburn behind the knee.

Pro tip - if you lift your knee to your chest and grab your leg, you stay upright...........funny that I worked that out a lot quicker than just not stepping under the rope.

Nicely filmed. Usually Kachoong vids just look all dark and shadowy with the background blazing white.

Haha stylin' indeed. Perhaps a bit staged though? Doesn't take that long to right yourself, although it did make all the more hilarious.

It was not staged amazingly enough!

Poor guy recieved enough humiliation with the entire pines watching this video over and over! I didn't think he would want to be known as the guy that punted huge on Kachoong. He will remain a mystery man ;)

Quite amazing how you can see his body language move from totally confident, campusing through a roof... to kinda realising he's getting pumped... to "oh shit, I've gotta climb properly"... to "oh man don't lose it don't lose it"...

I was half expecting the cam in the roof to pop... glad it didn't, that would have made it a different kinda vid...
