Speaking of Darwin, I would guess the world's best climber is not a homo sapien.
Oh boy, used the word homo, here we go...

Ever seen the Madagascar lemur climb? Beautifully static and precise.

static and precise? boring.
bigs moves and wild swings with feet cutting...that is where the style points come.

You're joking right?
In red rocks, if you climb a hard route after it rains, all the holds break off.
Some of the area's have really solid rock, but most of the sport climbing areas have really soft porous rock.
