oooh I think I know who that kid is. First saw him out climbing with his dad at the age of 13. Nice kid, very talented.

Way to go Tyler!

There's a 15 year old kid at the Red right now from Hungary who did this so far:
1. Onsite of Cutthroat
2. Onisite of Table of Colors
3. Onsite of Stunning the Hog
4. Onsite of Table Direct
5. Golden Touch 2nd go

I heard he was at the crux of Table of Colors just climbing up and back down to the rest trying to figure it out. He looked like he was just hanging around on jugs.

Strong kids. Dude climbs 5.13 like it's 5.10.

Tyler is strong too. I think he flashed Elephant Man last year. Amazing what climbing in a gym in Michigan and heading outside every once in awhile can do.

Gabor is his name. He actually flashed most of that stuff. He also redpointed Gods Own Stone. His sister also had an equally impressive trip either onsighting or redpointing everything second try. Emily Harrington is also in the gorge and onsighted The Madness today (Sunday).
Tons of talent! Very impressive to watch.
Oh, Tyler did White Man's Shuffle last week as well.
One super neat thing about all 4 people that I just mentioned is they regularly climb with there parents! That is so neat!

I'd love to see what David Lama could do at the Red. That kid has onsited/flashed several 5.14s and did 5.14c 2nd go. All in one week.

I'll have to second the amount of hard difficulty climbers out there now. Not to long ago I watch someone jump from v12 to v12 like they were easy. They were mere warm-ups for him.
