John Frieh Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 are there no purists in the world anymore? Â Climbing is like religion. For some people it is religion. Â Different people pray to different gods... some people only believe in one god... others got a laundry list of people they pray to. And some people don't believe in a god. Â Some worship in a synagogue... others in a temple. Some anywhere they want. Some think the sabbath is Saturday... others say Sunday. And everyone has a different document they reference. Â And who's right? Who's wrong? Who's the holiest? Alpinists? Boulders? Sport climbers? Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plexus Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Brienne, Â It depends on how high the walls are. I usually just traverse and boulder. If you want to try getting used to trad climbing, in your climbing do some lockoffs (to simulate placing pro). Also try climbing with a weight belt to work on carrying more weight. It's amazing what a difference that just five pounds can make. I can get up to 5.11 sport and nowhere near that with a full rack on. Â Â Well...actually I have a messed up forearm so I ain't climinb shit no more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
