ivan Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Quick question, have you guys ever considered how much time you spend talking about Beacon online. Rough guess? Let's try this, every time your tempted to post something about Beacon on CC go do some training. Get a hang-board, do pull-ups, run TR laps, lift weights. You'll be so fucken strong that you'll hike every route out there and even the most obscure line with shaky holds will feel easy for you. Bolts at Beacon, you won't need them as you'll be so strong you'll just run everything out between bomber natural pro. Loose holds, you won't care as those routes are soft and you can just campus past the. I'm not joking, let's try it for 8 weeks and report back to me with your fitness level. I bet you'll add-on at least two full numbers grades by converting Beacon Rock online spray into training time. -Nate i'm waaaay past you - i: - run a half-marathon everytime joe quotes someone and then writes a full paragraph point-by-point retaliation - do 50 pullups everytime pink puts in a pop-up lizard - do a brace of bench presses using me wife and 2 kids each time kevbone posts ANYTHING - run 3000 vertical feet on the stairmaster each time geoff can be dragged out of his lurker-ness to weigh in - and jerk off w/ a self-imposed deadline of 30 seconds anytime i double-post b/c i'm so haaawt waiting for the next reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billcoe Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 OMG! F*ed, thats rightm I'm so screwed here. Cause every time JH posts a response where he's right in response to someone explaining why he's wrong or should consider there point, I TAKE A CHUG OFF MY WINE GLASS. Let me tell you, It's totally f&ed my training regiment and I thing I'll be lucky to pull 5.6 this weekend#$^ if I can wake up at all tomorrow. But its a fun lil drinkin game:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephH Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) Those that can't train spray... If I could walk away from my keyboard to train I'd love it. Well, that and I don't train. ------------------------------ Bill, So I'm not supposed to respond? Hell, as it was Mark got pissed when I was slow getting back up to his. As far as "I'm right", no - I have my perspective and views on the subject other people have theirs. When I'm misquoted, someone's putting words in my mouth, or arguing points which in the end all revolve around sanitizing a spectacular and challenging line, then I suppose it does look that way. From my perspective I seem to be up against "wasted rock", "best for the community", "remove the risk climbing", and "it's too dangerous" arguments - none of which I agree with. I have read folks posts and been entirely forthright and honest in my responses. I'm really a bit stunned that not a single person voiced any excitement, interest, or even curiosity in the line as a free climb. I guess in the end, I climb what I climb because it grabs and interests me, I don't climb for other people - if what a safety-obsessed mainstream does pushes folks' view of my climbing ever farther to the fringes that entirely fine with me. But then again, needing some sketch in our climbing is probably something Ivan and I have in common.

geoff Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Nice job yall. I posted a little jab then went climbing for three days and bam, spray fest. By the way, I believe the rock made it through another weekend. Thank god. But, I could use some large falt rock to finish my new ledge at the base of Jensen's Ridge, Ivan variation.
