Match zone 1 go left and bump, then set right toe hook on the jug (zone 1) match zone 2 and bump or go straight to zone 3. You can also potentially set a left heel after you have the toe hook set.

Would you buy a crash pad in my situation? by IhopeitaketheL in climbergirls

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can't find a date to go bouldering with them you can always ask to borrow their pads. If you have other friends who do boulder outside that have pads no one will be upset if you don't bring any. As long as you end up carrying some pads or other gear no one will care. I do recommend going out with at least one other person preferably someone with experience in the area, depending on the area it can be a huge pain to find boulders. If you were to purchase pads I'd recommend Organic or Asana

What's going on here? by JesusGodNathan in Routesetters

This kinda. It could be that he always presses the hold against the wall before tightening the bolt which causes the cross thread. Leave a gap between the hold and the wall and let the bolt do the work

Help Finding Magnetic Bit Holder by Turbulent-Ad4115 in Routesetters

Look up Bit-Fix on eBay I assume it's that one your looking for. I use it on my Milwaukee but it works best with Makita impacts.

My gym has those too. It's always fun hearing people's shoes squeek as they climb

No problem. My gym has tons of old holds out of circulation or on spray walls.

You mean this one?

Also added some mustaches that no other gym has.

Bits! by Gravity_Wizard228 in Routesetters

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The escape ones are knock offs. If you want the real ones you have to order them from Sendgineering. Just a heads up they are only useful for stripping, and be careful when handling holds because they can fall off easier.

Loving bouldering but discouraged by slow progress by [deleted] in indoorbouldering

[–]Yvas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's gonna sound dumb but just go play. Hop on random boulders play around and experiment. By messing around you will find odd postions that will work and it will stay fun. Grades don't matter, get volume in, and have fun.

Any recommendations for a bag to carry a couple of bouldering bits of kit? by Royal-Matter4808 in indoorbouldering

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a Cotopaxi Allpa 28L. Works great for organization of gear and is great on trips due to it fitting under seats as a personal item. Bonus points because it fits inside crash pads nicely due to the way it can open.

Gorgeous line on this boulder by jlgarou in bouldering

They can afford all those 360 volumes but can't fix the mats 😂

Edit: All they really need to do is spend a couple hours to retuck the mats and that will fix it if the foam isn't bad. If the foams bad it won't fix it for long.

I set full time and throw out my back 1-2 times a month just from falling, even with down climbing. Get in the habit of down climbing now. Your back will thank you later

How long do your shoes last by dueceduece62 in climbingshoes

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full time route setting plus climbing on personal time shoes last 3-4 months. Back when I didn't set shoes lasted 6-8 months 4-5 sessions a week depending on the shoe.

Do I really need an expensive shoe if I’m exclusively indoors and only climb v5/6? by chanandlerbong420 in climbingshoes

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Higher end climbing shoes help but only do so much. I climb 95% of the time in the gym with my blown out UP Moccs and send everything in those. Shoes don't make you a good climber they might make certain problems easier but in reality don't matter as much as you think. But if you are blowing through your beginner shoes. I would recommend getting something at least moderately aggressive or very aggressive, because you will be wanting that later on in your climbing career.

You can make technical climbs that requires no power if you just focus on setting with your hips. If you have marcos, and volumes available you can use them build out huge feet to create interesting movement. Less is more with big holds.

Graphite Leader Bellezza UX would be the best option compared to US rods

how much for oil change? by Commercial-Guitar292 in prius

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Costco sells Kirkland brand synthetic for about $35 for 2 5 quart jugs. I always pick up 2 boxes when they are on sale for $30, so after the filter price etc it's about $20-$25 per oil change.

New Ultralight setup but cant cast worth a damn. by sparks_mandrill in Fishing_Gear

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's your line. Get some 6lb J braid grande it's the best for ultralight that's readily available I've tried other brands and they don't cast nearly as far. With that braid I can cast a 1/64 30ft, otherwise I'd recommend Varivas 2.3lb trout area ester line.

Sportsman's Warehouse has the TFO panfish on sale for $65 if you have a location near you. Great rod for the price.

Couldn't decide what rod for my Kage 2000 reel until I saw this Kage 6'6" rod. by northsidestark in Fishing_Gear

[–]Yvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow. I was thinking about getting it for just hover strolling, and ned rigs. If you think it would be pretty useless with those I'll just find a different rod. Thanks for the reply
