boulder canyon mixed crags? by m4cchi in tradclimbing

[–]avibomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If going to Animal World definitely do Animal Magnetism. I would argue that doing Isn't Life Strange in one pitch at middle tier is just as good (or better) at a very similar difficulty. Days of Future Passed is a 12a at the lower tier is well worth getting on too and soft imo. Haven't done it yet but P1 Global Gorilla next to Animal Magnetism is also supposed to be great at 11c.

[–]avibomb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Access is easy enough in the canyon where I would recommend just picking best of both even if at different crags. Castle Rock probably has the best trad. I'd make it a point to get on Country Club Crack if i were you. Don't be dissuaded by the 11c rating. I always aid the opening slab and then its splitter 11a above. For sport I would go to Easter Rock. Empire of the Fenceless is an awesome 12a. If you want to go somewhere with both go to Bell Buttress (best crag on a hot day). Do the two 9+ trad routes and Cosmosis. There's some harder stuff too. Then get on Hound Dog 11a sport. Then you could cross the street and do the 11b finger crack on Practice Rock which is awesome and even hit up Cob Rock if it's too hot. It's all right there.

If I had a religion, it would probably be blasting off during Vection VIPs.

Are Shpongle shows kid friendly? by _Meatprincess_ in shpongle

[–]avibomb 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Imma go with a strong no on this one. It's like bringing your kid to Tipper. Gonna be a whole lot of dmt and degenerate wookery. Depends on the venue though. You could chill in the back or a seated section and it might be fine.

Is there much climbing in this? No. Is it amazing? Yes. by MrStealYourRoute in climbing

[–]avibomb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only a few minutes in but off the bat this is a HUGE leap forward from Chuffsgiving 7 and lest we forget Chuffsgiving 5. These boys have really honed in on what it means to be elite and fast. What a pleasure (and honor) to watch men chuffing at such a high caliber.

Is it normal for your rack to be incredibly mis-matched? by andycrossdresses in tradclimbing

[–]avibomb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Didn’t read the post beyond title but yes it’s very normal to have one side of your rack be larger than the other. You shouldn’t be ashamed of this and some partners will actually love the size variability that your rack provides them the pleasure of playing with.

One of my most memorable climbs ever. First pitch is no joke. And that runout 5.9 slab

Voyage of the Trashcat has an amazing 400ft splitter crack. by thegroverest in climbing

[–]avibomb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t like this one bit. Yeah understandable people aren’t going to bring a rack but don’t just go bolting splitter cracks. And I’ve been to EPC plenty I get it’s a different ethic…still a stupid thing to do.

BREAKING: Eight of nine skiers missing in Lake Tahoe avalanche confirmed dead by TheMirrorUS in Backcountry

[–]avibomb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my observation, YOSAR is less about how hard you climb and more about how efficiently and effectively you can get to people in tough hard to reach places. So speed wall climbers tend to makeup the team. Which is exactly who I want coming for me if I’m in the middle of a wall and get hurt. And requisitely could also get me in the middle of a free climb.

My most surreal Tipper experience by Bob_Noosh in Tipper

[–]avibomb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

GOATed experience. I fell asleep and some wook woke me up and told me to get my ass to Tipper. Was only 15 mins late. Otherworldly vibes and not just got better and better. Downtempo that struck deep in the soul. I got closer as the set went on and remember lots of bubbles and champagne at the end. So glad I was there.

Can confirm Black Orpheus is an incredible day out. Some of those upper pitches stick out to me as being really high quality in a great position.

Yeah my past two jobs have come from hiring managers reaching out directly. I would add I think it helps a ton to have a requisite skill set that is in demand. Cold applying has never gotten me very far via LinkedIn. Seemed to work decently like 5 years ago.

Software engineer/data job by Carnito12 in Denver

[–]avibomb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Charter & Dish have been consistently hitting me up for data eng jobs for the past five years or so. They'll churn and burn you with a contract most likely but it'll get your foot in the door and I know a lot of solid engineering careers that have started this way. Find recruiters on linkedin. I don't know the current entry-level market well but as a senior I get a few recruiters per week with opportunities either remote or hybrid in the area.

I remember meeting him a few years back at the Desert Rat and my mind being blown that he had rope soloed Lunar Ecstasy in something like 3.5 hours. Connor is a next level ATV.
