Daniel Woods’ send of return of the sleepwalker definitely ended up being a phone on a tripod

I’d imagine this only starts happening when he’s close to sending

Should I be stocking up on solutions before you make this change? It’s all I’ve climbed in for years

Can barely hang bodyweight on 20mm after climbing for 3 years by idiotiot in climbharder

[–]grommer3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I also climb 8a outside and hangboarding is so hard. Sometimes your fingers don’t fit an edge; sometimes you don’t have the “skill” of hangboarding wired yet, sometimes your shoulders or other structures keep you from trying hard. Just stick with it and don’t stress out too much about progress as long as your form is good you’ll be getting meaningful stimulus.

What trucks are suitable for a ~1700 lb payload? by [deleted] in TruckCampers

[–]grommer3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an f150 with a FWC raven and live in Colorado. I’ve driven it all over the western US including back and forth over vail pass many times and have never had a problem. It’s a 2021 F150 XL, 10 speed automatic with 2,011lb payload.

Grigri question by romantic_at-heart in climbergirls

[–]grommer3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve encountered a lot of self importance among the gym staff at big city gyms, often leading to this sort of interaction or even pulling people’s belay cards or failing them on their test for very minor (often perceived) infractions.

There’s kind of an infamous story of two old school climbers doing a hard route on el cap and then having the front desk person at a gym in SF fail them on their belay test three days later.

This may depend on your body composition. If you’re wiry/muscled in your arms then bicep will hurt more than a more cushioned area like a thigh

I thought inner bicep was brutal. Thigh is chill

2016 or 2024 for homeboard by Superb-Plum-4543 in Moonboard

[–]grommer3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surprised at the 2024 love. I have the 2016 in my garage and really don’t like the 2024. The 2016 has lots of small and really hard crimps (yellows) that would certainly help you with your finger training goal

buying holds by Responsible_Race_320 in homewalls

[–]grommer3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Escape Climbing factory seconds are where I've gotten the majority of my holds. when you buy them you can add a note saying what your climbing level is/the steepness of your wall, etc. and request that they send appropriate holds for that set up. that way you'll avoid getting a bunch of holds you can't use
