luvshaker Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 This entire thing is a sham....it's verticaly biased. It's obvious that no person, male or female, over 5' 2" has a chance at this award. That's why Lynn Hill won it 5 consectutive years in a row. "Greg Child, president of the jury, explained that their decision was made because they felt these climbs truly represented the spirit of alpinism." Greg is seriously like 4' 8" tall and 68lbs. It represents the spirit of anti-neanderthal. Just my two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScaredSilly Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Funny, I am in Chamonix now and we ended up going to the awards last night. Interesting gig - kind of long and boring. The best part earlier that afternoon when they showed "Mountain of Storms" which was Chouinard, Thomkins, Dorworth, Jones on Fitzroy. Classic. Of course seeing Walter Bonatti was cool.

It represents the spirit of anti-neanderthal. it's obvious you an "expert" on sizing people up, and it's obvious you have never met Greg. Your "logical" explanation is air tight.
