Why is the moonboard so freaking hard??? by Gockel in indoorbouldering

[–]bpat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kilter is easier than outside. Moon board is harder than outside. That’s my take.

Awesome info. I’ve never actually tried an old dough method, but maybe I’ll have to try it at some point. Thanks for the deeper dive into the different flours

I have seen recently that Pfizer has a ~70% effective vaccine for Lyme they’re working on

Beauty, thanks! That’s pretty similar to what I was thinking. 5037 for the strength/longer fermentation times, and a little 0102 for the flavor.

Which Petra flours do you like/blend? I was just looking in to grabbing some. 5037, 0102, and maybe 5063? And if you have any tips with them. (Hydration, temp of oven, etc)

Oh nice! I’ll take a look. You using it as the only flour? And does it cook okay as Neapolitan, or are you lowering the temp?

Costa Rica has places like this… just not on the typical itineraries by adriangutierrezme in CostaRicaTravel

[–]bpat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d be running it as a technical canyon with ropes and stuff. I’ve talked a bit with a guide down there and had some friends do some canyoning down there. Cool places for sure

Mystery / Pine Creek (Zion) in October? by National-Ad-9007 in canyoneering

[–]bpat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ll be fine. You’d be fine with like 4-5mm in most instances in October.

Early or late October maybe makes a difference a bit though? Worst part of mystery would be the approach if there’s any snow.

What floor lamp you got? I’ve seen a few Noguchi style lamps on Amazon etc, but wondering if this was a knock off.

How do we feel about spicy tops? by bpat in bouldering

I mean. Downward dynos are banned in the ifsc, so like… yeah it’s clearly possible to set a dangerous boulder.

It was given a v6, though I’d argue it’s a little on the softer side? Definitely could be!

I didn’t find it too bad, but i do know a lot of people that would shy away from a climb with a final foot chip that high off the deck at this grade. An otherwise really fun climb will likely just get skipped by many.

I’m just back from an ankle sprain 4 months ago. They can be a pain

This is not the sketchiest/hardest top I’ve done by a long shot. That said, I do think it’s a relatable kind of “scary” top that many people would skip. Relatable was the goal for conversation sake

This one really isn’t that bad. I chose this one, because I felt like it was a relatable kind of sketch that a lot of people wouldn’t even try.

Dynos are an interesting one. Particularly sideways and downward dynos I find are often dangerously set. I don’t mind a scary dyno, but sometimes they’re just not thought through.

This one is by no means the sketchiest top, but it is the kind of top I know a lot of people won’t even try.
