AlpineMonkey Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Check all that apply. Check all the types of climbing you do. Not what you have done only once or twice, but the types of climbing you regularly persue. For example, if you've only climbed ice once or twice and hate it, don't check it. But if you've gone sport climbing only once and loved it and plan to do it more, then check it...If you traditional climb every day, then obviously check it... Quote
wayne Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Where is the box for " All of the above? "? I had a feeling this board was heavy at the bottom of that list, Thanks for the interesting poll C. Quote
tazz Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 mountain climbing...don't see that on there either. Quote
AlpineK Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 There are a number of gym climbers that seem unaware of the existence of outdoor climbing. Quote
DirtyHarry Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 There's no box for "I just like to rappell." Quote
AlpineMonkey Posted March 2, 2009 Author Posted March 2, 2009 Interesting results. I expected sport to have the most votes, followed by traditional, bouldering, ice, mixed in that order. I see that is obviously not the case. I was trying to just include the basic types of climbing. If you consider yourself more of an "alpine climber" then that could fall under traditional, ice, or mixed, or all. Quote
marc_leclerc Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 This seems like a great opportunity to spray about grades... Quote
genepires Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I am interested in what "other" means. Maybe it means "lame" which is where I fit in. Quote
Rad Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 you need another category for "virtual" or "armchair" or "in my memories" Quote
Dane Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 With 16,512 members on the forum and 236 votes with half voting more than once I'd suspect. I'd say we should have a catagory for "inactive" climber. Quote
ivan Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 lazy, drunken, falling, ornery, horny and dirt-bag were all conspiciously absent as options as well Quote
EWolfe Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Missing following option (I know it's hard to include everybuddy in a poll - whaddya do?) Bowl-smokin', whiskey-drinkin in the AM, pool-of-rope-on-the-ground-while-you're-leadin', sport-epicin', bold-as-fuck, off-the-couch-sendin', clear-the-crag with-vitriolic-spewin' climber! Quote
Ducknut Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 Old, broken down, and ex. I'll drink to that. Quote
