The bloke who equipped it is on the Pusher video 'Fast Twitch', which has footage of Sharma getting the first Yank ascent. I think he is at the base of the climb at the time and they have a quick chat with him, mentioning his name and the year it was bolted (late 1980s?). I could watch the vid and get the info for you, but that would be way too keen.

that would be Alan Watts... scary that I can remember that (I used to spend way to much time watching climbing vids!)
