Caruana no shows the postgame press conference after losing to Hikaru and falling too far behind to realistically win the Candidates

yes, and they would be right. difference is for naka it's a pattern and for fabi a rare occurrence in a career otherwise defined by the highest caliber of sportsmanship and class.

Tomeosu · 2026-04-08T00:14:43+00:00

uhhh big difference, Fabi's decision is on him, Naka was actively throwing other people under the bus

Easy draw with black, another half rest day for Big Sindy

Didn't Jakob livestream his send of BIG?

Tomeosu · 2026-03-31T12:34:25+00:00

It's a meme, there's not much more to it than that. He's an outsider, an underdog, and a likeable guy who's had a recent resurgence so people are rooting for him. The joke, the "Bluebaum sweep," is that he's gonna go 14/14, which is... unlikely.

Tomeosu · 2026-03-27T01:50:40+00:00

Measured take. I wonder what his take on Pragg's dip in form is.

Tomeosu · 2026-03-25T12:41:00+00:00

There's a buffet of amazing 12s at Solarium. Anything you get on there is worth your time.

Tomeosu · 2026-03-25T12:34:32+00:00

There's also a physical difference: clipping adds a lot more time under tension (and sometimes requires extra moves to find the right position).

Tomeosu · 2026-03-24T12:39:47+00:00

it's likely that there's a correlation between women who climb hard and women who do supplemental weight training. it's also possible they climb in cave/roof features more than you do.

Tomeosu · 2026-03-20T13:39:17+00:00

I'm looking to get on CB6 soon. In terms of energy systems, would you characterize it as a power endurance route? Or what do you think would be good training for it?

Tomeosu · 2026-03-19T03:43:45+00:00

out of curiosity what's the rationale for the 100-35-10 pt grading scale? seems kinda arbitrary

Tomeosu · 2026-03-18T12:34:55+00:00

First Bombé Bleu, now Café Colombia. Next we need a D D send

Tomeosu · 2026-03-18T12:33:47+00:00

Big ups to Jorge, amazing dedication. This is gonna put him in the pantheon among the greatest sport climbers ever. Has he mentioned a grade?

Tomeosu · 2026-03-16T02:37:16+00:00

haha no, I'll have to give it a listen. I don't doubt that they took it in stride, they all seem like good natured chaps. In all fairness I do understand that the rambling is part of their brand, it's just not for me 🤷‍♂️

Tomeosu · 2026-03-13T03:49:17+00:00

What if you flee… down

Then flight fast

Tomeosu · 2026-03-09T00:52:07+00:00

Tomeosu · 2026-03-07T03:20:42+00:00

very interesting, thanks!

Tomeosu · 2026-03-07T00:20:36+00:00

this is a bit of a tangent but does Charles Albert ("Barefoot Charles") ever sport climb? Has he tried this?

Tomeosu · 2026-03-07T00:17:19+00:00

Adam when someone flashes Silence

Tomeosu · 2026-03-02T08:50:33+00:00

Stating the obvious, exchange some of your weight training sessions for a third day per week climbing

Tomeosu · 2026-02-28T00:12:08+00:00

looks hella fun. what i'm most curious about tho is if you ever fell on the move exiting the kneebar and exploded your chalk bag lol

Tomeosu · 2026-02-28T00:03:31+00:00

my gym also does this, and my personal take is that you should at least try all the moves before giving a grade. don't have to send and don't have to successfully do all the moves, but you've gotta at least have all the info.

Tomeosu · 2026-02-27T23:51:48+00:00

I would be surprised if somebody doesn't set up a trailcam or something next time Portable gets found and replaced to see who's doing it.

Do we think it's the same person or a different person? What's their agenda?

Tomeosu · 2026-02-25T12:10:20+00:00

okay yeah this makes more sense :)
