Cool video Rob.

Im enjoying the new format and editing for Gear reviews.

More shiny stuff please! 

Thanks, we're pleased with how they're going.

Now I just need to find the time within my life/work schedule to do more!!

Nice looking shoes.  In my experience,  especially with beginners and especially on indoor walls, durability trumps stickiness many times over.  The number of new climbers you see with holes in the toes of their shoes is amazing.  Conversely,  most climbing wall holds, even small holds, are positive and rely much more on foot position than friction.
