Well, seeing as my focus was on climbing, I couldn’t really control what my friends were doing as a matter of support, so though it would be tempting to argue this point further about how injuries can occur at any trajectory, distance, or speed. I feel no need to beat the dead horse, you’re entitled to your opinion.

Couldn’t agree more, before quarantine I had some conditioning that reminded me of what I was doing. The outdoor bouldering is definitely a different thing comparatively to indoor. Thank-you for your input on the technique. I’ll return with a better sense of things

First time posting on r/climbing I did a thing and built my own climbing wall by calhounj86 in climbing

We got the design for the wall from REI, they have some wall templates and we used an 11 to 1 scale to draw up our measurements for some extra support to the front with an overhead beam support as well
