How many folks you see get on this climb and punt on the same move over and over again, vs people who actually send it. And I think part of it is how easy the climbing is getting up to it, people get sucked in.
The Infidel and Mercy the Huff are others that got me pretty good. Mercy zaps all that energy out of you as you are at the final bolt "rest" where everyone else is getting some handjam or some such shit, and I was just pumped out of my mind wondering how I was going to hold on to the anchor jug if I ever got to it. Now I wonder that same thing on Cell Block Six.

Cell Block has a great handjam rest too.

There's no crying in rock climbing, J-Ballz. Unless it's between the sweaty pendulous breasts of Cromper's mommy.whoneedsfeet wrote:I had a hell of a time with crown of thorns. the last hard move was just barly out of reach wingspan wise, so the extra move I had to add spit me off more than enough times to make me go home and cry to mommy.

Hahahaha wow! Jimmy just had a hard time with crown because every time he tried it he had wasted his energy the night before trying to please my mom sexually.dustonian wrote:There's no crying in rock climbing, J-Ballz.

Re: Most Heartbreaking Route
Trust me, trying to please your mom sexually is emotionally and physically devastating.

I can't tell you the amount o lockjaw I had to deal with Dustin. Try lowering your heart rate not being able to breath thru your mouth.
Skipping cruxes is a way of life.
Re: Most Heartbreaking Route
A few that come to mind for me...
Taste the Rainbow, Golden Boy, The Force, Convicted, Swingline, Too Many Puppies, Dracula, and Big Money Grip. I think the running theme with all of them is a good bit of tough climbing to a defined crux towards the end.
