Weather pending of course!!!

Distel...send that rig!! Just think to yourself "Hey, its like 15 feet of 5.8-5.9 climbing to a V4 or V5 section to a jump!" No biggies, right??

Hey all you punks! Have a good time at smiff!!! Pull hard and S-E-N-D!! Wish i was going...

Push ME There was also an article in ScienceWeekly a month or so ago...

Drink pineapple juice...no kidding, recent lit is showing a link between tendon health and something in pineapples!

\ do you need brushes or rap lines? and i can give you my scrub list too, that way you won't run out of things to do. not that much hiking either! thanks! No erik, the moss garden is in my gutters on my roof...and behind my ears...this sux...

You guys suck...i will stay here and attend to my moss gardening....PFFFFFFFFFFFT!!!!!!

readin the history here...it looks like bobbyp is looking for someone?

Don't listen to the naysayers...its all good...

dihedrals or aggro gulley...toss up...

whole lotta and a whole lotta at the same time ads up to a whole lotta and a few when the day's done... LTW is a great crag, but my heart goes w/ toe-dancing on the compressed-peanut butter/mud pile!!! SMIFF is the place!

very good point...

No shit, Taco. CAN is not the point. I CAN shove an icepick through your ear...SHOULD I? No. Your scenario has set up a state where the successful are made to work to support those who are not so successful (for whatever reason). Thus, you have enslaved a portion of the people by requisitioning a portion of their labor to support others. Oh God. Now the upper 10% of the wealthy are enslaved who have the equivalent of ice picks in their ears because of our unfair tax laws. Such a burden. Sniff Yeah, it's the CEO's of corporations that make million dollar salaries, and even more millions through stock options and artificially inflating earnings who are societies victims. We should cut their taxes to 0% for the next 30 years and pay them retributions for being enslaved. Whatever. and those poor mf'ers from enron...

Yeah...he's straight-up now! Pulling strong too! Shoot me a pm sometime, we can hit the redmond gym! We gotta grab that distel punk too!!!

Well... if you hung w/ them at smith, you prolly crashed at our place a few times in redmond, or!!! Actually glassgowkiss lived there too!! BTW Tyson is one of the managers now at the redmond gym...hahaha He's still a load of fun to hang out with!

Yah...i went a bit way back then...so you prolly ran around w/ tyson and chris weidner and craig hadley then??? They would've been about your age then...

DFA already explained, in fantastically simple terms, why it would be no stretch whatsoever to call oneself a "champion" after winning a shitload of comps, and how if you paid any attention to the climbing press, you'd know TA is mostly a comp climber and could thus easily extrapolate that she's a champion at comps. Sure, she (or someone) is obviously hyping her(self), but it's pretty obvious she's not just making shit up. If you're gonna put a heading at the top of your web page, and you actually want people to read it and maybe, you know, be interested enough to look around a little more, it helps to be concise. So, "Tori Allen, a girl who wins X-Games speed-climbing comps, ABS bouldering comps, and other such events, but does not compete on the World Cup circuit or have an 8a.nu profile, could sort of be considered a champion at some things" is kind of an unwieldy thing, and doesn't really draw you in. The other point to make is that SHE'S NOT OLD ENOUGH TO COMPETE ON THE WORLD CUP CIRCUIT yet...so raggin' on her is stupid

its only about money...who cares??? Plus to her that she's pulling down some of it...same w/ viestrus...it in no way affects my climbing or lack of it...

man...you guys need to chill out! She's freaking 15! and she climbs well...so be it... its not like there isn't a lot of chestbeating around here anyway, so who are we to bag a kid for it??????

ahhh...i've been going to VerticalClub/VerticalWorld since its inception.... I think it would be awesome to get a good group of motivated climbers together to really push hard...

ha! Thisiz a boulder problem at redmond!!! hahahaha I land on my ass everyfricken time...

ahh you rule! Peace out, bp...go climb something wild and wooly for me!! i'm gonna be in the gym falling off the purple taped problem for the 1,000,000 time now...getting dents in my ass from the gravel...

umm...i was thinking more along the lines of beth rodden... and, fwiw, Katie brown would school all of us in crax...you are quouting something out of context...I said "make the switch"...ie, spend some time learning how to properly place gear and she'd maul all of us...you are talking about the very first time KB went out and placed gear...

On another note, she would be schooling most trad climbers in a matter of weeks on their home turf should she make the switch...and the reverse could not be said...

Glad my life stuck in a cube farm and the godddamned f'ing gym is amusing to someone out there...
