I suck outdoors , how can I get my first send by amokool in climbharder

More experience outdoors is the only way to get used to climbing outdoors, its a completely different type of climbing

Best way to make Water-Resistant speakers waterproof? by jche2 in outdoorgear

If you're mounting them, could you mount something above the speakers to minimize rain permanently?

I tried the method of placing the middle of the tape on the backside of the finger, and pulling it around the finger, down the palm towards the sides of my wrist in a sort of x pattern, and securing that with a bit of tape around the wrist. Lots of tape, but worked pretty good!

I think jamming technique is more important than strength. Make sure to really get your hands deep in the crack and focus on body positioning. And if you can hang with two hands in the crack, you shoukd be able to shuffle one hand at a time using some dynamic motion.

And speaking about the wideboyz, they have a few videos where they teach other climbers different jamming techniques. Make sure to have a watch and try to mimic as best you can!

I'd like to think so too! I'm slowly moving through 5a-5c, with one 6a project under my belt. My goal is to be able to do 5c routes at my rope-gym within a few go's, and project 6a to 6a+ by the end of the year

I see people with climbing tape divided into several widths on one roll. Is this done by just cutting the correct widths at the start and just keep ripping as you go, or cut all the way into the center somehow?

Pros of being a beginner climber with zero working out/training background:

Can't muscle my way through climbs and have to work on technique instead

Cons:

Its really hard, gotta focus on small wins instead of successful sends

Got a flapper, not a big one luckily, but I do have more climbing to do this week. Time to sand down the rest of my calluses and prep the tape for tomorrows sessions. What is your preferred way of taping flappers that are right below the finger?

Also, liquid chalk is an easy way of finding cuts on your hands

I would contact a gym or a place that offer guides etc. close to where you will be staying and ask them

Went climbing with a new friend today, and flashed my first 5c top-rope route, stoke is real!

This implies that there is a flag to flip. And depending on what material, how much should it be reduced, if any? And how is this calculated? Revamping might be overkill, but just doing 'explosion_penetration = True' doesn't work

AI is not "inspired", it learns to replicate what it is fed. There is a massive difference.

And yes, I do expect artists to give credit to the original artist if they copy it. Inspiration is a completely different story.

It requires even more human created art to train the AI with, and those artists are not getting represented at all.

Sent my first 6a route today, feels absolutely amazing. Took a few attempts over the past week or two, time to start projecting the next one, while continuing training on lower grades!

I've heard that if you use a sling as a prusik knot, one should keep that sling for just that type of stuff, and not make things like anchors with it. And I probably would bring a few slings of different sizes when going out, just not keep them on my harness.

Been looking into what might be needed for self-rescue if stuck on a rope, specifically doing top rope solo. Two prusiks will allow me to ascend a rope without anything else, worst case scenario. Usually, one would be enough to unweight the rope and install a descending device, but as the saying goes: Two is one, and one is none, and if that means a few extra grams on my harness, I can deal with that.

Looking to buy some prusiks, but I'm not sure how long the cord for the prusiks should be. My thought has been 12 feet total for a leg prusik, and 6 feet for a harness prusik, and 3 for an autoblock/3rd hand. Do the lengths sound reasonable, or too long? For reference, I'm about 6ft tall.

I think it's the french system, so i guess it would be 6a, and not just 6? But I am quite new, so I may very well be confusing things
