Gino Lagazio submitted this Whipper that his mate took down in the Grampians while climbing Invisible Fist 26/5.12c R).
“I was belaying,” Gino told Rock and Ice. “My mate is okay with me sending it in but prefers to stay anonymous due to some of the criticism that gets thrown around.” That’s a smart man right there!

The Whippee came out ok in the end—and thanks to staying anonymous, his pride remains uninjured as well.
Happy Friday and climb safe this weekend!
