this is getting ugly...the rumors are not true. I was at the Surf last night, and all the bolts are intact. So all you posing old skool chumps can take your hexes and head on back to Long Wall.

BTW, for the few new wave cool kids that are showing (which of course will be no one from Cbus since that crew doesn't climb anymore), bring some old biners to leave for cleaning, and if really charitable, maybe a few old draws to leave as perma-draws...

and please bring leashes for the dawgs.

PS- SCIN, Power2U actually chipped the high crux on Tapeworm last night. He knew you were rabid to send, so he brought it down to your level.

automated..the two easiest lines at the Surf are "Shoot the Tube" 5.9 trad project, and Mello yellow 11b pile of crap....nice job on the "almost onsights" of these two :wink:

seriously..rhunt, you need to set these young guns straight....tell them "back in the day" stories of the REAL posse from Cbus...mark and sierra, wren, martin, derrick, mike and susan, paul, vanessa, et al....heck, even lexi used to climb.

auto, that posse ate 12a for breakfast in Teva's (remember those)....and they sometimes let kenny and jeremy tag along :wink: and once kenny and jeremy started crushing, the new young guns were ex-communicated.

you forgot Keith Ts - he ran out of things to climb before anyone knew there were cliffs pass the motherlode parking lot.

yep, once Kenny and Jeremey started crushing everything we all had to start bouldering just to feel better about ourselves.

automated, I don't know who you are but you ain't no KY player. :wink:

"almost onsited".....now that's funny.....especially at the Red where an "almost onsite" can easily turn into "finally redpointing" 10 tries later.
