5.8...how's about the third pitch of central pillar?? right side of cookie? 5.9 how's about 2nd pitch of reed's? (now go and compare that to Reptiles... that's pretty much 5.6 or 5.7 really) godzilla? what about something like princely? (trying to stay local here a bit)...how about OS 5.10? Split maybe, what about BOC or most of thin fingers? compare that to exit 5.10's and you will see why i'm just rolling on the ground sometimes...for face climbs...i don't know, maybe wedding day, stoners, or how's about bbq?

I think PP is on schedule... Chuck, the concept of a benchmark is pretty valid...not trying to ridicule anyone...but come on, look at index ratings, for example, compared to the exits and newer areas...compare those to yos...or seneca or the gunks...jeezus...

Catbirdseat's partner post got me to thinking/dreaming...where do benchmarks come from? It seems to me that ratings that used to/should be considered as a "benchmark" have now fallen into the "sandbag" category... So...let's hear yer benchmarks for various levels...I'm bored silly right now...

i'm the gremlin on the right...wear yer helmet!

oh...this is funny...the confusing gender is trying to explain it logically to the confused gender...

is that exit mid 10-level...or outer space 5.9 level??

sitting here dazed, confused, bewildered and wondering...

oh..."half a tool"...that's rich...but i'll wager that "half a tool" won't get "used" as much as much as a "total tool"... Yeah sour grapes suck and i've forgotten how to laugh...

.....the bane of my life, but yet desired to some extent. and yet men continue to claim women are the confusing gender. "confusing " is the verb and "women" are doing the "confusing"...there is no doubt about this...men are "confused" by "confusing" women...do you understand? Good, cuz i don't... Peace out...i'm gonna go shitfaced

this is a five star troll and you are a complete tool...

tweet tweet tweet, muthafukka!

wow...2:1 odds for dave!

what is a 10c/b?

ahhhhh....sheeeit! Well, i guess size isn't really an issue for me, then! FUCK I HATE THIS PLACE/JOB/SITUATION...

well...he may be serious and all, but come on...anyone could tell that tim was joking around...christ, entire cliffs get shut down for birds and everyone respects them...I have a really hard time seeing someone going up and removing the birds and their nest...

chill out wank...i think he was making a joke

I don't climb v10 nor redpoint 5.13...maybe i should eat some more?

what about John Dunn...or the east coast's own Doug Reed (he's 6-6 and huge, climbs 13+)...hell, the latest shots of sharma have him lookin around 165 - 170 at 5-11, i'm guessing? he hardly looks anorexic There's kids i know that are over 190 and some over 200 that crank v10 and harder and redpoint 5.13...and that's locally... I don't buy that size is an issue...

where's my puke 'moticon when i need it... this place blows, work sucks and I'm pissed...why am i reading this drivel...FUKC

4 times daily...minimum

god...this thread is sooo stupid

Ponykeg is Sandbagged? vantage sandbag...now i've heard everything! of course it is...if you don't know how to do a particular style of climbing its "sandbagged" (like ow)...its similar to the first time you get on a route it really has a harder rating, really it does... peeps need to trek to home base (the ditch) for a taste of what "benchmark" levels are...pretty soon ex38 will be the standard

I climb vicariously through you clowns!!!
