Video Clips

	* Army Of Ants (3.6 Meg, 59 seconds) Neil attempting Army Of Ants, the super overhung grade 26 sport route at Sentinel Cave in the Grampians. From the knee bar rest stance, he powers up, taking a scary fall while clipping, then fights across the roof traverse plunging downwards just shy of the last bolt. Video by Michael Boniwell.
	* Stepping On Snakes (2.2 Meg, 35 seconds) Dave leading Stepping On Snakes, a grade 23 sport route in the overhanging Sentinel Cave. A powerful dyno completes the route. Two successful attempts have been merged hence the duel camera angles and discontinuity with the T-shirt. Video by Michael Boniwell.
