The Enorma Cast is proud to be partnered with Sportiva.

And here's the thing.

0:10.0

There is only one shoe that has climbed the hardest roots on our cap, including something called the dawn wall.

0:17.0

And that shoe is the TC Pro, designed by Tommy Caldwell and produced in a hollowed out volcano in Italy by blind

0:24.1

zoastrian nuns. These are the shoes that our friend Hayden Kennedy once

0:28.4

called crampons for granted. But the TC Pro is just one of so many legendary shoes in the sportiva line, the mirrors, the testoroses, the solutions, the meathos, and something new called the squamma. What's a squamama? Who cares? It's Italian. So please support the Norma cast by going to

0:47.4

Sportiva.com or your favorite climbing retailer to check out the full line of Sportiva shoes and then quit screwing around and

1:55.2

Bela Spex. Keep talking about Bela Spex until nobody wants to climb with you anyway. Problem solved.

2:01.9

But if that doesn't work, then go to Bela aspects

2:03.8

and get yourself a pair. And don't forget to enter a normalcast at

2:14.4

Old track runners rolling their eyes.

2:15.6

People putting them off for the first time saying, ooh, that's trippy.

2:17.6

People insisting they don't like those weird glasses, even though they've never even tried them.
