tonight 10 PM who's gonna be a geek and see it on first day of release

Sunspot, on Blazing Buttress at skaha

for the front of your helmet?

"drill mark" is such an unimaginative term. what about "manufactured anti-tufa"

Yeah, Twight kinda came to mind when I posted this question. I was wondering if it worked for anyone else. I think Twight climbed more out of despair and anger at himself, not because someone else pissed him off. Read Kiss or Kill, then see if you still say that.

I have climbed hard when angry and climbed hard when happy but when totally mellowed out am more likely to sit in the sunny meadows blowing soap bubbles than climb hard Anger works for Twight "My life is a seething pit of anger, rage, hate and piss and blood...I solo the north face of the Aiguille de Sketchmatique in 5 hours"

Hey I just got shut down by Dolphin a few weeks ago!!! Harder than 10a Bird of Fire next to it! I thought it was just cause I am suck and have no OW technique!

people who spell "the" TEH and "etc" ECT

yeah. he SHOULD be jamming. and he IS underclinging in the first one while he clips up those bolts. St Vitus is one of the softest 5.9 around. Campbell guide calls all 3 pitches 5.8s Whereas the crux on Sparrow and Snake are much less secure, and worse pro too, on St Vitus you have gear above your waist for any move you choose. Modern Barley routes have bogus grades anyhow, complicated by the presence of aid ("Barley free") bolts at all cruxes

St Vitus Dance is really 5.8. not 5.9 so it cannot be testpiece first route on Apron? you mean before Diedre?

but without sit starts

Did you see Allison up there She was trolling for a ropegun to take her up the Toof in chat room on Monday.

It's the return of "I rate you all one star"

9+ means "look out you are gonna get your ass kicked"

The Tube at WI3 was a classic WI 3 testpiece harder than many Cdn Rockies WI3 and a few Rockies WI4...

BAN MODERATE DESTROY CENSOR LOCKDOWN

Have you ever stopped to think for 30 seconds that different tools feel better/worse for different people? I'd trust the opinion of somebody who actually climbs with these tools over somebody who just sprays about them. I wouldn't trust anyone who actually climbs with Rages because they are so suck, it shows their judgement must be seriously off about everything.

I bet Bush and Powell claim to have 900 fill down too, the cads

The map showing routes up Twin Sisters W ridges is nice http://abiogenesis.com/jrs/images/south_twin/

Rages are sooooo suck. SUck suck suck. Also heavy and poorly balanced. The Quark is a precision implement. The Rage is a clumsy club.

SKETCH ATTRACTS SKETCH it'ds like magnetism or something

why is it so hard for you to believe gear companies lie to you. ditto their reps. never trust a snake oil salesman even if he's selling sleeping bags, or packs, or puffy jackets, or revolutionary new rubber technology from the Far East

its all 5.sent until you fail
