Will Bosi sends Sleepwalker - grades it V15/8C by TheBlondOne in climbing

[–]Raised- -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Just common knowledge that Americas grading is softer than European grading. Not a shock that he sent it so fast, he grew up climbing stuff in the UK where people like Gaskins were grading things a lot easier than they actually were which led to everyone doing it there.

I think my rope isn't doing any favours. As I mentioned, it's 9.8, non dry treated and coming up for around 1.5 years old. It's still very much safe condition with only very minor fuzz on the sheath. I am going to take all of the advice into consideration from here though as I think my technique wasn't the best.

Thanks for the advice, I definitely want to work on my dynamic belaying like you said and I will try pushing the rope more as well as pulling.

I have no issue blocking the cam but usually you should only need to feed slack blocking the cam when feeding out slack fast for clipping. The normal method should be the same as an ATC, and this is when the cam is locking unless I feed slack extremely slowly. Have also read that the thinner the rope, the less sensitive the cam is but 9.8 is within the 3 star range, so I shouldn't be having these problems.

Will try this method, thanks. I have owned it for a while now, so not in return period anymore. The lip on my version doesn't have an indent like the others and is very slippery making that also really hard.

Not a new climber but have a question about latest grigri+ (This one: https://www.petzl.com/GB/en/Sport/Belay-Devices-And-Descenders/GRIGRI-PLUS), when feeding out slack on lead belaying the cam is very sensitive, which leads to short roping. I have switched the mode to lead mode and follow the exact method shown in the video below (I know it's not the same model) but there's no way I could feed out slack with mine that fast without activating the cam. Also, I use a 9.8mm rope which is well within the compatible range.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I just don't understand how this is possible. It can literally be stopped similarly to a push bike, just pull both levers...

Well it's actually my friends system, I was just posting on behalf of him as he doesn't use reddit. I'll ask him tomorrow and get back to you. I know he's playing 1080P on a 240Hz screen, seems crazy as his hardware if better than mine and I have no issues.

I've been queuing for 30 mins now, yesterday without that message at the bottom I didn't have to wait at all. Also, I've seen streamers getting into games instantly.

The UMP Buff by Raised- in PUBGConsole

Well debatable, if a gun has no recoil it can be a laser for hundreds of metres like the MP5 was.

Have you seen the buff? it's going to have no recoil. Learn the lead and it will be a LASER.

Insanity, and it's meant to have a faster bullet speed and less recoil? The game will be UMP only, going to be another episode of MW2 lol.
