A lot of posts on here from others would beg to differ ;) Good on you though if you had the necessary style/technique/thick skin that made it pain free.

Yup taped hands and lightly taped ankles and the outside of each shoe. The ankle/shoe tape was ripped through in the first pitch or two. Should have gone several layers for those. We also both lost a fair bit of skin on the forearms from jamming deep into the back of the crack during the wider, fist sized bits.
