man, some fucker at the lode on saturday accused me of being a trad climber. he was wondering what i was doint at the motherlode on a sport route. i've done like 10 trad routes at the red. what the fuck?

Yea some fucker eh. oh yea did ya how was Leave it to beavis? I heard there were a few holds on it that have been wet lately. FUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!

good. the crux holds were douched though, but you can dyno past all of em to the big jug. it's fucking cool that way too.

Sounds good

I find it funny that people try to take away the climbing aspect from bouldering. It may have its own set of rules, different equipment, and different techniques. But, ITS CLIMBING A ROCK, simple as that. People say Ice climbing, they climb ice, people say Aid climbing, they climb up a rock. I dont think we should say bouldering climbing, but you cant say its not climbing. Its funny that most people that dog bouldering have not done very much of it. So I guess the question would be what makes climbing ,climbing. I have heard a lot of people say the commitment or element of danger. The same people usually say bouldering lacks that. You take ground falls every fall, from any height, on your back, over big boulders all day and say it dont take commitment and isnt dangerous. Some people say its getting higher than so many feet. Those same people say bouldering lacks that. The same people bitch about bolts that are more than a body length apart, or they have to run out the crack a couple feet. Remember in bouldering every fall is a ground fall, from 25 or from 10 feet. There is no take, and there isnt a dynamic rope cushioning your fall, and no 3.5 inches of foam doesnt help that much.


Sorry Artsay, I hope this doesnt hijack your thread. It just had to be said.

the reason i don't like boulders are because they are a bunch of queer motherfuckers decked out in baggy pants and yellow sunglasses. besides that, they climb, at the most, what's equal to 3 or 4 pitches a day. even worse is the fact they suck all the donkey dick and get hosed down with pig semen as often as they can. i thought you were different stronghandman? i thought you were bad to the bone marrow from the way you talk? i'm not gay or anything, but i'm gonna rip a whole in your drag queen uniform of spandex and feathers and buttfuck you like a silly whore just to show you whats up.

HF you are just upset because you can't pull off the baggy pants and spandex show that you really don't have an ass.

Tonsule Tickiling Felatio. Do you ever wonder why the woman run from ya bro ? Its not the smell coming from yo mouth, or the shit from yo lip, it’s yo no baggy pant croch filling dick.

I guess that’s pretty easy to say based on the cruxes you play on at the Red. Do any of the 13’s have a crux harder than a V4/V5 on them. Are you one of those dudes that dogs what they suck at just so they can save face when asked about it ? Or are you just scared ?

That's funny... everyone else starts on easy trad then works their way up, you start on "Welcome to Ole Kentuck" and work your way down.

I wonder how you did this, I mean seriously... you must have led "American Crack" or "Calypso" first and then was just like "Damn! I'm ready for Ole Kentuck now!"

stronghandman, the cruxes on a 5.13 route are around v0 or v1. i'm scared to boulder. the thought of falling on to a padded landing scares me. ohh my! i don't even like thinking about it.
