Okay, here's a clip that should put doubts to rest. It's of Synergy taking on the super slick and slimy rocks out in Massachusetts and on a rainy day to make things even harder. Nobody else made it up this face but Dave did and with Ridge Grapplers.
Not saying that Trail Grapplers couldn't have made it up, we just didn't have enough time to have everyone keep trying. The main point of me posting this is to show that Ridge Grapplers could get it done.
There are more clips you can see of him on that trip and I guarantee you, there are ZERO trails like what you see here out west.
