[quote "macblaze"][quote "camhead"] I wonder if anyone knows what the hardest route ever sent while putting the draws up is ?[/quote] In another thread about preplacing draws the question was asked. Now, never having attempted anything harder than a 11.b, I've always wondered what this preplaced draw thing was; but now I am wondering just when (as if [;)]) it will enter into the picture. So come on, how hard do you climb without preplaced draws, and what hardest route ever sent while putting the draws up?[/quote] what do you think
my blind guess is that it could easily be 8c or harder.
I heard that Chris Sharma onsighted Proper Soul 8b+ while hanging draws, then went up it a second time for the cameras. That is pretty damn impressive. I've seen the route and it's LOTS of slings. I don't know if they're permanently fixed though...
I  think that Proper Soul is fixed, or mostly fixed.  I'm pretty sure of it, actually.

Didn't Gullich climb Action Directe while hanging draws?
In my opinion a onsight only counts when you put the draws in yourself........
