HELL TO PAY???? I PROMISS TO RETURN HTE BOOK

I have decided that I want to spend this spring learning to aid. And because My BELOVED John Long has not yet written "An Aid Climbing Guide For SK" I am looking for a good sorce of information that I can carry around with me. Texplorer is a bit Tall to fit in my pocket I plan on hitting some of the guys arround here up for some lessons, but I will primarily be on my own. Any thoughts or ideas or help... or a lesson would be appriciated will buy beer for aid climbing help

Me too!!! the thought of getting stuck and having to down climb whatever I just thrutched myself up is not a fun thought. As to the question at hand... this year will be my 4th season climbing. I have led a little sport, and a little trad. about 5.7 for both. No one can tell you what is right for you. But take it from a 5.9 climber, that is no big. I look at it like this( and I am sure some will disagree) But you arn't even an AVERAGE climber until you get into the .10's then if you were getting a grade you would have a solid C. Give it time. Learn the skills work on your foot work and form. Practice down climbing (it could save your life). there is far more to climbing well than you can know yet. Almost ANYONE can climb a 5.9 most people can climb 5.10 especialy on top rope. My guess is that you are strong and athletic and are able to muscle your way up things. I could be totaly off base... but take the time to learn good skills they will take you farther than brute force.

This is RURP. Your reply suggests you are as classy as the girl in the picture. But maybe you are the girl in the picture? RURP has spoken. no, I am not the strinking brunette, but the hot little red head that doesn't live in washington

WATCH IT BUDDY

there are old climbers and there are bold climbers... there are VERY FEW old bold climbers. -someone says that??? who is it jk???

not only are you trite, you are also out of your mind. I prefer th think the devil is flipping you the bird as the code says F A H Q wich could also mean Fuk YOU

hey Rurp

no you don't .... not by a long shot. but, that doesn't mean you shouldn't lead climb. Best to start on climbs well below your no-falls/no-hangs top-rope level. I have to go with fern here. lead in the gym all you want but please realize that climbing outside is a totaly diffrent game. Climb with some one who has a TON of experience. Take a class if you have to. Read everything by John Long you can get your hands on (have I mentiond I am in love with him?) It is about miles on the rock, and you haven't got any yet. Put your time in. Pay your dues. Some people advancer farther faster than opthers, but don't push it. Steph Davis says " life is long" and I totaly agree. Especialy if you can keep from making stupid climbing mistakes and ending your life all too soon. p.s. I am looking for a big waal partner for 2005

you could almost take this to another level and add another forum... we all eat and drink and sleep... we all take trips and stay weird and fun places... how about a food beer and lodging fourum. When we went to levenworth last year we got great ideas from everyone as far as places to stay and eat... it made our family vacation all that much better

I thought perhaps phrases like "Painful Viewing" and "Very Graphic" would have done the job. Well in my little pea pod mind "grafic" doesn't realy mean watching someone almost die. my bad I guess

DMAN IT I should have read the whole thred before I hit play next time can we rate things... like "hey sk you want to watch this" or perhaps "hey sk don't watch this"

I saw a personal in the Eugene Weekly that started "My wife agrees, I need a girl friend"
