Thanks alot Bob, your arm tip really helped me to make him loop correctly too! =D I let him stretch his arm more when holding a stick below his head.
Thanks for the help, I hope I can make it better tough, I'm not really satisfied.

I think this animation looks pretty smooth as of now, but instead of climbing, it looks like he's dancing. His legs just look like their bieing shifted upwards, without any real feeling of being bent. His arms are what really bother me though. It seems like there is only one frame where his elbow is outstretched, but the rest of the frames just look like his arm is bent the whole time, and the forearm area keeps growing strangely, which once again, looks as if he is dancing.
This is a pretty good sprite. I noticed the feet got messed up on the final (it looks like the foot seperates) but other than that, it's pretty fluid and looks good.
