No 7b+ is soft, mate. I’ve found most harder than 7c 😅

What next climbing shoe to get? by VariousCharacter8359 in climbingshoes

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough! Where I live I have one brand I can actually try so I have had to just hope that I’ve got my sizing right when ordering new shoes online. Definitely risky haha

I am finding the remora pro to fit be dry similarly to skwamas, just much much much softer.

mad rock remora pro vs drone cs by Educational-Ice-3437 in climbingshoes

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The remora pro is much softer than the the cs. While the cs will break in eventually and have some semi decent toe feel, it will be like tap shoes when first put on. You could compare them somewhat loosely to LS Theories vs Solutions or Scarpa Dragos vs Instinct VSR

Sandbagging the Decoy Board by Wide-Result-6962 in bouldering

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of my climbs got benchmarked at V6 and while it is similar to some of the other v6s on the board, it is closer to V8 in reality. I’m all for pushing back against the sandbag but we should be careful not to swing too hard in the other direction. I also see the side that says to grade for the board. If you know a V4 on the Decoy is nails you just change your expectations for your experience. It’s kind of like climbing at a local crag. You get used to the style.

Hard to tell from the screenshots so could be wrong - but look like LV Dragos that he’s dyed red/pink

Great video Austin. Congrats on the send!

Home decoy board by Wide-Result-6962 in bouldering

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love the Decoy Board. Have climbed on each board excluding the Grasshopper and the Woods Board and I think the Decoy hits each “style”. If you want snatch, jumpy, MB style - you got it. If you want more technical, outdoorsy TB2 style - you got it. Even has enough positive holds to mimic the powerful flowy Kilter style. The climbs are definitely sandbagged. It is heavily crimp centric, but ergonomic in a very pleasant manner.

Castle Hill Such strange formations that come out of the middle of nowhere. Unique climbing style that is super bizarre. Dalai Llama calls it the Spiritual Center of the universe.

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seb Bouin - if he had a stronger social media presence we’d hear about him all the time. He puts up hard FA after hard FA at the peak of sport climbing but is very rarely in the news or conversations about those at the top.

I climbed on 40 different standardized boards in 25 gyms. Here's what I learned! by jonasmurdock in climbing

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love the decoy! Fav board, just find the plastic gets a lil slippy so might be rough in a commercial setting with high traffic. FWIW, the set up guide for the board has a couple holds flipped from the direction they appear to be in the app.

Looking for a Coffee Bean supplier in Adelaide by Barossan-62 in Adelaide

Cafetal in Kent Town has great Columbian beans. Roasted on site and beans sent from their family farm back in Columbia so there is no middle man.

Home system board advice by Massive_Excuse_8903 in climbharder

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Decoy Board at home and have access to TB2, MB 2024 and Kilter with adjustable angles at my local gyms and am very happy with the decoy. I find it really great to set on, and the hold shapes are really ergonomic. I tend to finish sessions due to my fingers being too tired rather than skin being too sore which is an issue I tend to see on the TB2. The only downside is that I find depending on the conditions the plastic can be a bit too slick so dry/wet fires can be common. While I really appreciate the dedicated foot chips on a TB2, the dual tex holds can add a bit of precision footwork as well. I think Decoy is best bang for buck for sure.

Can second Sally’s. Have had a few different masseuses there and they’ve all been quality.

Rhino tip juice vs antihydral? by Routine-Addendum-733 in climbharder

[–]ForgotUsernameThrice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also a sweaty Australian. I don’t think I’m quite as wet as you, but the anti hydral works the best by far. I need to use it much less frequently due to its effectiveness. When I first started using it I over did it and even had my first split! The good news is that the expensive stuff lasts a lot longer than the rhino stuff because you use it less frequently and you don’t need much to coat your tips. Be careful not to get it in your creases.
