To become more confident placing pro so I don't get scared on 5.9+ trad.
Sarcasm is a tool the weak use to avoid confrontation. People with any balls just outright lie.

Try falling on it... even though I broke my ankle while leading trad, just knowing that a #2 tcu held my fall made me feel confident about my placements.....

Now, like I said, if I can just get my head together and start leading again.... :(

Goals for the summer...chill out at Summerville, stay in shape, play at Seneca and wait until fall at the Red when the redpoint conditions return!

My goal for the summer is to do the whole route "Way up Yonder" so I can make fun of all the a**holes who say they climbed it. :shock:

Hey now-- the honest ones among us put a little comment in there saying that we only did the first pitch! Maybe if Ray weren't such a chuffer, he'd take the initiative to order one of his little pissants to go in there and modify the online guide, but nooooo...

You probably didn't climb it like most people. I have climbed the first section 7 times in two years! :roll:

goals - to get stronger, both physically and mentally, and learn to love heights.
also, go back and send everything I have not.
