now see fellas, that is how to subtle spray.....nice job brad!

Brad is learning well, next I will teach him the art of the deceptively reporting attempts. You know, like saying "I did that second try" Which translates into, "Yo man I tried that route 12 times, but I sent it on the second time I really tried hard."

Andrew, you did use "2nd redpoint attempt" in a recent email to me. Thats the gheyest term ever...

I always thought twinkie just looked awesome, got on it the other day. Didn't send or anything, but it was really fun/a little intimidating.

i like that term. gonna swipe it for my own. so the times we "work" a route don't really count cause we ain't rreally tryin'

of course, i am of the school that every fall/hang on the rope should count as an attempt. you dog 6 times first go and send next time you tie in, that is 6 attempts. period. anything less is lying.

Whoa. I'll brb, gotta update my tick list.

Yeah, good luck with that one piggie. I agree, but the community hath spoken.

I understand that logic if you fall at the same crux section each time, because you really attempted that section 6 times. What if you climb up 1/3 of the way and take a hang, then climb up another 1/3 and take 1 more hang. you didn't rehearse any of the moves more than once, I'd say that's a legitimate one attempt even though it had two hangs.

Abiyoyo and Iniquity are two quality, lower-grade .12s that have not gotten mention yet.
