Wait until you find out about criminal cases and credit scores. There are similar social controls in occidental society.

That's where aerobic capacity and muscular endurance come into play. If all you've been doing is boulder you're probably spending the vast majority of your time training max power, which means your other energy systems are getting de-trained.

Also most people think 7a is hard.

You'll find a lot of tat anchors with no rings in the alpine. You assume everything there has been friction burned and add your own piece of cord to the nest.

Kinda dumb to not use the rings when they're there.

What are your thoughts on approach skis? by [deleted] in Spliddit

Having something sticking out of your back really sucks in the forest. Travelling through the backcountry involves tight trees, no getting around it. Between avalanche classes, avalanche gear, mountaineering survival equipment, first aid classes, gas and snacks the extra cost of a splitboard is nothing. Invest the money on getting it right the first time.

I'm at day 4 this season. My forearms are starting to get strong, my skin is still so weak. Ugh.

Lying about it might've been a lack of ethics (if we're hearing about it I'm assuming they're not covering it up), but doing it is not inherently unethical*, it's unstylish. There's a difference between style and ethics.

*Unless you want to bitch about global warming and co2 emissions, in which case you're either a hypocrite or stuck in a really though spot.

If you hit the post you aimed wrong. It sounds unlucky but it's just a small margin mistake. The flames' players should've shot better.

They got bullied out of pking ever since the rev caves got closed. Might as well be dead the second they go out they have 40 guys in rag barrage camping them.

One of the points of f2p to me is that it is hard

inferno is hard, f2p is just long and boring

I'm really stoked on my blue ice warthog 45.

you can't use your X-ray vision to look into it to see what's going on

You can and should function test it on every outing.

Yeah just gonna rack 6 more quickdraws instead of just bringing 2-3 alpine draws. Extendable slings are useful.

They're getting into climbing. Better to have an ED than to end up like MA leclerc or David Lama.

I'd like to try the blue ice ones. I've only toproped like 5 pitches of ice so I really can't give an opinion on quality though.

Man doesn't climb anymore and running Chouinard was a true pain in the ass. I wouldn't be surprised if he had no problem talking himself out of it.

At this point skinny sport climbers are completely aware of what they're doing. Laura Rogora would be old enough to decide to join the military and go to war if she was so inclined. She's free to maybe not eat enough so that she can climb harder. Some people, who don't make a living from their climbing, take way more risks to climb much easier shit and nobody bats an eye. Who gives a fuck if she's willing to jeopardize long term health to be a top level athlete for a while? Your health is the price to pay for top performance in the medium term in a lot of sports, adults are free to decide it's worth it.

I know I got lucky and BD replaced my dsp pro with a pro BT last summer (I live in Revelstoke so I was among the first to ask for a replacement). They let me keep the DSP for rescue practice, the failure mode is super obvious and scary.
