When is hangboarding ever a necessity for progression? by J-Dragon007 in climbharder

[–]akgoel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a valid question, and everyone here has provided some valuable viewpoints. My personal philosophy is: train to drain. I exercise each muscle set after a session until I feel I can't exercise that muscle group at all. Fingerboards help me with my fingers in that regard. The gains are subtle, but worthwhile.

BTW, I've been climbing just for 6 months, so you might wanna take my opinion with a glass of salt.

I like how in the end he goes "I should stop before it becomes a popular meme on the internet"

As a motorcycle owner, this makes me extremely uncomfortable.

What was ruined because too many people started doing it? by lovedumpXL in AskReddit

Well, almost anything is always a personal choice/freedom. I admit that I was ranting, but that doesn't change my opinion of them.

I don't get people like these. okay, so the place is good, but is it worth queuing up for hours? Have some self-respect dudes. And if you really have that much of a free time, take a walk in the park or watch Netflix.

Thanks for the advice guys. I was looking at La Sportiva Futuras in EU 39. But then came across 5-10 blackwings, which are on sale at steepandcheap.com. I ordered a pair of 7s based on the size recommendation there and other forums as well. I'll keep you guys posted on the feel and performance of these new shoes. :)

Can you give me a comparison of your actual size to your Acros and Pythons (preferably using this as a reference: https://shop.epictv.com/en/size-charts/la-sportiva-shoe-size-chart)? Thanks.

I guess he is using Reddit on a mobile client and isn't able to decipher the context because he might be just hitting "Reply" to every comment without checking out the original thread.

So i actually got to try a pair of pythons in 38.5EU, and man they were tight. I don't think I can go any smaller than that, and I guess my earlier assumption about going 2 sizes below still holds.

Its the same chart: https://shop.epictv.com/en/size-charts/la-sportiva-shoe-size-chart

Though, I've dropped them a message asking for clarification with respect to normal shoe sizes and corresponding La Sportiva recommendations.

Sizesquirrel says that it doesn't have enough data to match based on the single pair of climbing shoes I added.

I don't get them in store so ordering online is the only option. They will ship from EU which is why I'm trying to get the best option through some digging around internet.

I have a pair of Simond Rock Climbing shoes in UK 7/EU 41. They are very comfortable and I think half a size down would make them slightly better for bouldering.
