thank you kindly
it would seem your undoubtdly climbing much more solid formations than what we are left with here, but still unless your just a kinetic genius its really had to find the sweet spot in a climbs beta for clips without actually hanging on the hands and standing on the feet
the 'flash' ascent was so enumerated to encompass those sends where folks knowledgeable about the route shouted beta to the flailing onsighter who hung in and got a clean ascent that first try
its a hat tip to the values inherent the ground up traditions
it took into account the great distinction between simple visual inspection or a route and concrete forknowledge of its detail which watching a send of it or receiving beta regarding it are
i would argue that even a no touching inspection of a route on rappel disqualifies you from any flash ascent
