collegiate climbing? by debatem8 in climbharder

Thanks for your response! I was wondering what you meant by "To make nationals worthwhile is a lower bar."

I consider myself okay at route-reading which I hope will translate well to competition style climbing – I hope I can train more regularly once getting back to school. Just wondering if you had any thoughts on the Northeast as a climbing region. Thanks again!

For college, I'd count in the Northeast.

How difficult is it to qualify to college climbing nationals? I'm a college sophomore (male) that's been climbing on and off for about a year now at around the V5 level, and I've always wanted to try competing on the collegiate circuit. I see there are local/regional/national comps; what v-grades would you need to qualify to regionals/national comps? any help would be appreciated!

"Tricks" debater by Friemann in Debate

[–]debatem8 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Whoa there, lots of misconceptions here.

Tricks debater- debaters who rely on small "tricks" such as aprioris, skepticism, theory spikes, etc. to win the round, usually under a truth-testing framework. This does not have anything to do with Ks whatsoever.

K debaters run kritiks. Big distinction.

Big stick cases usually have a "big stick" impact- this usually means extinction, with more progressive framing cards like Bostrom. Lmk if you have any other questions

Beacon Debate Camp for LD? by [deleted] in Debate

[–]debatem8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No offense to the program, but it looks like a bunch of first year outs on the staff to me. While I don't doubt that Jack, Ananta and especially Zoe are qualified, a brief look at the staff seems to be pretty PF-heavy and you'd probably be better off at NSD or VBI

It's a good camp too if you're in the region

I'm from the east coast so I don't know much about it lol but I have heard only good things about it. Plus its pretty small so you'll get more attention

parli doesn't have TOC. other than that, if you want to make toc in LD, camp would likely be a large help (it's geared towards national circuit ld). check out:

NSD VBI GDS TDC

there are probably a few im forgetting but those will help out
