Why go to the gym? Go to Boat Rock!

If you're really set on checking out a gym, go to Atlanta Rocks:

Go to Wallcrawlers.... the only Atlanta gym owned by a climber( a damn strong one at that) lots of really good bouldering and routes. The real climbers in ATL go to wallcrawlers.

Do Not go to Atlanta rocks- lame, lame and did I say sucks?

Atlrocks does not have routesetters (well they do, but they are gym climbers and not real climbers) and the boulrdering kinda sucks- one small boulder

If your schedule allows, just go to rocktown or LRC. pm me if you need more info

now explain that one to me. if REAL climbers go to wall crawlers, isn't that considered gym climbing? and in my wildest dreams I never thought someone would try to define what a REAL climber was...and to think I thought it was "all good"...my bad.

I don't know how far away Kennesaw, GA is but I know the guy who owns the gym there... http://www.escaladegym.com/ and I bet you it's kick butt....a 25 yr old owning his own gym that he built himself....pretty cool

Pig, Fo' Real Climbas (FRCs) attaining/maintaining that lofty line of demarcation set by the forefather REAL climbers will hop on anything that will get them there, even plastic.

gym climbers= climb on plastic only
real climbers= climb on rock too

escalade= so so

yo sista love muscle...if you have to train to attain 5.12 status, then you ain't really a REAL climba...only the gifted who hike sandbagged 12's in their bunny slippers need apply. you pull plastic, you might as well join your grandma's bridge/crochet club....

sorry to derail SCIN.....I know you were just trying to weed out the chuffers from the fluffers....
