Whipper Time!
Whipper Time!
I still get the hee-bee-gee-bees thinking about it.........?
It was a popular musical group in the 70's. They sang that song that goes:
Nobody gets too much heaven you know
'Cause it's higher than a mountain and harder to climb ---
Nobody gets too much heaven you know
'Cause it's higher than a mountain and harder to climb ---

And if that song didn't get stuck in your head, try this one:
Love is like Oxygen
You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you're gonna die
Love gets you high

You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you're gonna die
Love gets you high

so your just talking about whippers in general? Man I took the biggest one to date at the Shady Grove about a month ago. I was at the top of Which is Which on my redpoint burn. I made a long reach for a huge jug(one that has a lot of chalk on it and that I had used two other times before), more like a ledge, matched on it and then it broke! I fell about 30+ feet, nothin but air and the giant hold smashed on the ground well away from anyone at the base. Good thing that wall in super overhanging...the sound a huge hold like that makes when it break is somehting I will never forget...freaky!
