Speed Record on The Naked Edge
On September 24th, Scott Bennett and Brad Gobright retook their speed record on The Naked Edge 5.11 in Eldorado Canyon, CO.
The team shaved 15 seconds off of the previous record set by Jason Wells and Stefan Griebel in August 2014. Griebel was there to cheer on his ‘rivals’ and has plans with Wells to revisit the climb in the next few months.
The Naked Edge was originally climbed by Layton Kor and Bob Culp in 1962 and first freed by Jim Erickson and Duncan Ferguson in 1971.
