Most routes in the red have been done with only one hand. Just be quick with the clips.

Climb facing away from the rock. That way your hands are automatically switched around. Also works your heels more this way. This will come in handy on that killer heel hook for your redpoint attempt on Creature Feature.

Thanks for all the constructive tips! For those with less tact, I don't have a masturbation problem, I just boulder really hard with my right arm most of the time when I'm in the gym.
Any other good routes? I'm looking for anything 5.10d and under.

Boulder really hard and 5.10d and under... do not equate.

hater. talk about a rock snob...got news for ya bubba...as ray has said, even bouldering V8-V10 and climbing 5.13's at the red ain't no news...so really, all of us are 5.10D climbers in disguise.
Positive vibes brah...positive vibes.

I need something that I can give my right a break on, didn't you read the original post! Of course I can send harder stuff when I'm not trying to give my right a break, but thats not the point. I mean, how hard could you send when you're bouldering at your limit day in and day out.
Whoever designed this site and the so-called "Advanced" search features, didn't think that there would be tons of folks asking for this type of thing. Thats why I though some of the climbers on here would...guess not though

don't be hatin on this site and the so-called advanced search features. since most of us have done nothing to help make them it isn't cool to diss such a sweet, free site. besides, they're always open to good suggestions, and i don't personally think "xx-arm-intensive" routes is much benefit overall. are you really surprised it's not there? you did the right thing by posting in the forum, but as you'll learn you take the good with the bad and the pretty with the ugly. just try and learn which is which.

also, whatever grade you climb i bet if you climb a full number grade lower on vertical or slab then you probably won't have too much trouble finding a workaround for most moves.
efil lanrete... i enjoy the sound, but in truth i find this seductively backward idea to be quite frightening

He has felt the wrath of the Ruffians on this site as well.
