stating what? That so and so is a lesser climber cuz he's stuck in a gym? Clarify, or i'll assume the worst...

what part of "other commitments" don't you understand???? moron...

and i'm just trying to point out that making a statement like "blah blah onsighted blah blah" in a comparing abilities type of way is not so smart...there are some badasses that lurk (and not lurk) on here that you know not much about...just sayin'...

details! i'd be willing to bet what goes down on plastic in the gym most days you couldn't get a foot up... just sayin'...most of us don't have any choice but to climb on plastic due to other commitments...

women always say that!

hahahaha... you can almost see the detonation countdown clock ticking...T minus and counting...

nah...its 10a...

Big Biz ass kissers <--

hey lucky...do you want me to mail that guidebook stuff back to you?

yer ghey...

well...there goes this thread!

whatever...everyone just solos past those ridiculous scars and THEN places gear...

i already said that...

because that one would eventually pull, get replaced, etc. and then you'd have a big ol' scar...if there is available gear do not place another pin, if not, put a bolt in...pins are flat fuckin' stupid in this day and age for craggin'...

I HATE THEM!!!

yes...it is...i did haul a really broken up climber out in the late 80's, but he lived...

methinks dawg or kimmo would have no problem dispensing that route on gear or bolts...

I heard cc.com got downrated/downgraded from .11a to .10d...what's consensus rating????

"My friends who boulder "safely" (the ones who haven't broken their ankles) say you learn how to land..." tis only a matter of time...sooner or later your ankle will get compromised..."safely"..what if you just slip or a hold breaks... As bachar phrased it...and i'm paraphrasing here...he has less than a one in a million chance he'd fall...well, i read somewhere that he'd climbed over a million vertical feet unroped and...well, you know the rest of the story...

I could see that with a heavier, older person *cough* me *cough, but dude, you're like lighter, younger and in shape! WT hell? 3 feet? I'm seriously considering the 30' highballing I still do on occasion. Last time it was damp, and I was wondering how far up my thighbones would go if I screwed up and popped off. my right foot landed precisely on the edge of the crash pad and rolled under...i didn't even fall down, but was standing there looking at the bottom of my foot because it rotated so far. I didn't go compound, but i was really close as the end of my leg bone was pushing out the side of the skin on my foot...then i got reaaaaaal nauseus...

wow! Count your lucky stars...shuddering...

Hey Frith...shoot me a pm...Josh never responded back, so whatever, but we climb a ton!!! I have a ten y.o., an 8 y.o. and a 4 y.o....

too true...i seriously whacked my ankle...titanium plates and screws and over a year and a half before its somewhat "normal" from a 3 foot fall in the GYM!!!

Watch my youngest boy (8 years old and a whopping 3'-9" tall and 45 lbs)climb vomit launch with only a couple of falls after my oldest flashed it for a warm up...a one-two punch then watched my older boy hike his project (oxygen), keeping it together through a very teetering crux...meanwhile his coach (brett)had just sent White wedding... then to top it off, a buddy comes around the corner having sent his project...and i get to belay another one of Drew's coaches (Bryan) as he hiked vicious fish...and topped this off by watching drew taking big lobs off the top of his next project... I didn't climb crap, but enough buddies/kids sent that i felt completely fulfilled....great weekend! Damn...kids these days...crazy!
