How much effort do you put into your flash attempt?

you can use tick marks and beta and still flash a route.

Apparently sport climbers no longer even try to onsight... Maybe they got your memo?

You can insert Onsight instead of flash if that makes you comfortable.

Yeah you can. This is sportclimbing. Just like Pinkpoint=Redpoint.

If there is chalk on any hold on the route, you can't REALLY onsight it.


As for me, I try like hell. I don't wanna have to do the damn thing twice when there are so many other routes to do....
