Well, that figures...


Success in climbing, at least for meadows, ist to climb like meadows.

I have seen people chuff their way up some impressive numbers. In a truely desperate style. Shakin and a shittin, cussin their way up a route. They get there, but it ain't pretty. I've also seen some brute lookin type people silk their way up a route so smooth...the only sound is the "clack" of the quick draws.

It was the winter of 2003. We were all up at Rock Wars and Autumn. While we were there, Andrew and crew show up. Andrew starts up Souders crack. Its like an 11c. All the chit-chat died down and the whole crag stopped to watch Andrew drop his pimp thang. Nobody breathed until he completed the dyno-to-the-anchors. That was elegant.
If you give a man a match, he'll be warm for a minute. If you set him on fire, he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

Anyone else wonder how long that last move is if ANDREW has to dyno?
Can't we all just get along?

Andrew usually dynos out of frustration. Frustration with little people beta.
