Where's the limit?

Okay, so we saw the release of ten footers back when people were like "Max 300 omg". Then it was eventually pushed to PSMO. Then we got up to thirteen with ITG. Now with custom songs, we see people passing things like One More Lovely and other freakishly freaky steps.

My question is, what foot level do you think is the absolute limit?

With OML being considered a 14ish, I'd say around 16 would be the absolute limit.

After Strangeprogram it stops for streams.
No one's ever going to pass stuff like Fury of the Storm, Disregard, I Am Maid, Reality and stuff like that. =\ So not really much after OML does it stop.

I don't think we can know until we get there. The a la Menthe has been passed. That would seem to suggest that runs almost twice the speed of determinator are passable.

Well first off, don't go by foot ranking, everyone has opinions.

Second, it dosen't stop, anywhere.
The only thing that will stop someone is when they don't wanna do it anymore.
Fury of the Storm is passable, and so is basically anything.

You just gotta work your way up to it.
Pandemonium was impossible what, 2-3 years ago?
Uber Rave was insane, as was Quasar?
And people have easily ***'d that.

It's not the difficulty that will stop.
It's moving on to the next difficulty that will stop it.

I don't think there really is a limit. I mean, remember how dropout had a "deathrun", then max's and then pandamonium. It'll only get harder. Even after the physical limits of the human body have been pushed, some guy is gonna get robot legs and push it even further. 64th runs WILL be done some day.

I think 15. I mean, there wouldn't be too many people who would be able to do 14s. And I almost no one could do 15s. But you must realize they have to be legit 14s/ 15s, not stepmania 14s or 15s which are more like weird 13s, I'm talking about no debate about whether they're 14 or 15 worthy... I don't think that made any sense...

Probably the absolute limit is 16's or 17's, since bracket raping makes things easier. Otherwise, it would be 15.

I think that there will never be clear absolute limits, but the increases in what is possible will slow down after a while.

If Lance Armstrong played ITG he could problably do 16's easy.
