Yeah man, boo on placing gear- gotta run that shit out and get some real climbing done. Placing every ten feet is about as much fun as stop n' go traffic.512OW wrote: There is no real climbing while placing gear. Lets all just face it.
And with all due respect Mr. Dub, if twelve trad is soo easy then why are they so vastly outnumbered by twelve sport sends on your spraylist? (I realize this is the Red)- Why no WTOK or Snotrocket? I mean you send harder than that on bolts so they should go down no problem- plug n' chug, all the same right?
As far as this 'sport ethics' discussion goes (is that an oxymoron?)- just do like Rhunt says and trade the stick clip for the bouldering pad. That way blowing it is safer, but still a possibility- which is what makes sport fun.
