Climb trad much? Or at least anything harder then 5.9?

Putting small cams too far back in the crack is just asking to get them stuck.

I've seen Hoyne climb quite a few trad routes and he's always done a damn fine job (and some of them were harder than 5.9). For some unknown reason I noticed that he hasn't ticked them off on his ticklist though.

I noticed that one of the climbs that he did an FA on wasn't even listed... What's up with that Hoyne?

My spray list is not accurate. I've only got about half of the routes I've done there. I'm not in a big hurry to brag about what I have or haven't done.

TP, if you are having trouble working the cam in deep placements I would really recomend you go with aliens. REI carrien them so you could still use your dividend. Also check out the new flex cams from Trango. They are really nice cams, and run a bit cheeper than the BDs. but have almost all of the smae fetures

I like metolious. But, then again, I've never tried to reach real deep.
