lancegranite Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I am sick of the labels...I climb! Trad, sport,alpine, pebbler, ice, trees, all fall under the simple term...climber. By choosing to climb, I choose to live my life without without limits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dru Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Monkeys climb MUCH harder than you do. Johnny Dawes bribed some Indian monkeys in Hampi (banana) to get beta for the local boulder problems, but he didn't have the power to weight ratio to pull like they did.

texplorer Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I am a trad climber. I am tired of being lumped into the same category as bouldererererers, sportos, sloggers, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOST monkeys have opposable thumbs on their feet as well as their hands. If he's one of these....does he wear climbing shoes or go shoeless? Oh...and I climb for drugs, sex, and rock n roll...yeah...thats it. tee hee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Dr. Flash Amazing is a climber. A sports climber. If you're any other type of climber, you can take a flying fuck at a rolling donut! You can take a flying fuck at the moon, for that matter!* *Thanks, KV!

fenderfour Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I'm a gaper. I'm a rope tangling, belay device dropping, 5.8 leading, non-skiing, too-fat-for sport, too-slow-for alpine, non-dry-toolin, cheap gear owning, WI3 sketching fuck-off. I've never lead 5.10 trad. I've never tried 5.11 sport. I've climbed the WA volcanoes by the easiest routes possible. The only leader fall I've taken was 20+ feet… in the gym. I've never bivvied a storm on a big wall. Hell, I've never bivvied a storm. I believe in the light-and-slow approach to climbing. I believe in Wild Turkey on summits and PBR in parking lots. I don't own a crash pad and I could give a shit about V10 bouldering. I don't know any big name climbers, and I don't care to know any. I've flailed trying to toprope Classic Crack, only to watch someone else solo it. I still enjoy hiking the Mt Si trail. I've never been benighted on a route. I have respect for the Mountaineers because they are teaching people to climb. I have respect for REI because they are a business doing what businesses do. I don't talk about what I do because what I do sucks. Regardless of all this, I still have a great time climbing. Next time you see a big-ass bearded son-of-a-bitch sweating like Drew Carey in a South American marathon, laboring up a trail or thrutching up a 5.6, stop and say hi. I'll appreciate it.
