The ongoing weekend idiot report

[Saxman]

fucksticks doing backflips off of easy rider and getting their head smashed in (that's a new one their....would love to see them put a positive slant on that bit of stupidity)

I somehow missed this story. I'd love to hear more details on this one.

I wasn't there, but apparently some fuckstick did a backflip off of easy rider and smashed his head in

I heard the story from a source who was there that day. Apparently some guy dogged his way up easy rider, got to the top, unclipped the chains, and told his belayer to give him some slack because he was going to do a backflip. The guy then jumped way back from the cliff (not sure if he completed his flip or not) proceeded to smash into the tree, then came back into the wall really hard. He smashed his head/wrist into the wall, came down, said he was fine, but ended up holding his wrist for the rest of the day. Dumb...

i was contacted by R&I for info before the writeup was put out but returned the call too late. the climber and belayer know they chuffed hard and their quotes are just trying to save a little face. if they or anyone else who feels they need to not chuff so hard they can call RRO and hire me as a guide. i don't care to donate any more of my time to dumbass climbers for free. maybe once march rolls around i'll care enough to write R&I and explain how the belayer didn't take an inch of rope through the device and all the other details. until then i'm on vacation from chuff and get to enjoy the next few months of my life without climbers falling out of the sky, spraying about falling out of the sky, tattling on one another by writing petzl big wigs, complaining about their trips getting ruined, writing local business owners about shit that doesn't concern them, people from the other side of the mississippi telling me how to go about my climbing in my backyard, bitches getting world wide acclaim for onsighting a route that she had beta sprayed to her the whole way for, "do you know who I am?" bullshit, colored tick marks, sucker punches, manufacturing chossy routes, the absurd notion of a global consenus, fucksticks doing backflips off of easy rider and getting their head smashed in (that's a new one their....would love to see them put a positive slant on that bit of stupidity), arguing over who owns what piece of which cliff and where...

once you know the basics, staying off the deck is largely common sense. you either have the self preservation urge or not. reading a write up about a dude falling with clipping slack out at the 2nd isn't gonna change shit. if you can't figure out that if you fall at the 2nd on many routes at the red you may hit the ground then you'll get what's coming

That is a quality rant. Thanks for the laffs. To the idiots... keep on chuffing!

Not everyone is Andrew G., and not every Easy Rider is the Madness Cave.

[dustonian]

Yeah, that rant had to be at least 14b or c with bad pro.

When I finally send All Things Considered next spring, I'm TOTALLY doing a victory backflip at the anchors!

[Toad]

When I finally do a backflip, then I'll totally go send something.

[climb2core]

I can do a back flip, and I still can't send shit. Don't believe the hype.

[Saxman]

Unless it is a back flip on slab I'm not impressed.
