A soft 12c to 13a for just one number-chasing indulgence

Pigsteak, you would be the one to know.

c2c, you need to work on your comebacks. they seem rather played out and juvenile

Lol, sorry Phil that I am not meeting your expectations. Thanks for the advice.

Soul Ram is only 12b, but it is a fun vertical/techy face climb.

Malice is probably the best 13a I have ever attempted.

I don't think there is a ridiculously "soft" climb in that range out there. Sure there are soft 12c's that could go at 12b or a 12d/13a. But you think of a climb that is clearly two letter grades off?

Why? Why do the grades in that range tend to be more accurate? Is it because folks in this range have been in the game a while and know the difference between 12c and 13a?

swahili slang and mirage are pretty ridiculously soft

Darkness Falls is super soft at 12d

I think it is because the differences in grades becomes exponentially harder as you move up the scale. A 10c to 11a is not nearly the same jump in difficulty as from 12c to 13a. At least from my weak sauce perspective...
