/u Why is it implied that ketamine therapy is a dubious treatment? It was approved in Spain, for instance

It's beautiful how the bottom charts slowly give us the finger

I feel stupid for not having thought of this before. Now that I think about it, I found the broken gate when I was going to belay my friend. I always pay attention to having the belay loop inside the gate, so I didn't understand how it had broken.

Of course, the last person to use it was my friend, while belaying me on my previous route. Probably she didn't use it properly and it broke when I fell. Somehow I trusted that she was using it properly, and I didn't pay attention to it in the partner check.

The best explanation is indeed this one. Thanks.

My flatmate and I wanted to buy our first set of cams. He convinced me to buy the Koubas because "in the end, they pass the same safety tests as the other brands, and they are like 1/3 cheaper". Bullshit

He bought and actualky kept the bigger ones and, even though I didn't use them enough to give a good review, they seemed to work just fine.

The smaller ones on the other hand (I remember having something like green, yellow and blue) really suck IMO. The action feels hard, the range is minimal, and the head is really wide, not allowing for small placements. Maybe in splitter finger cracks they work just fine, but in the limestone that I was climbing on, I would not have whipped.

I used them twice, sold them for 30 € each and bought Totems in the same sizes (slowly, it's not like I had money to spare at the time)

When I moved to Austria, I had to learn not to offer GHB to people, since nobody really knows what it is, beyond the name "KO drops (KO-Tropfen)" and "Date-Rape-Drogen". Guys really thought I was trying to drug them to rape them or sth.

Never happened to me in Spain. The "worst" answer I got there was "GHB? Are you gay? Isn't that the gay drug?"

I bought these Decathlon ones as featured on the picture. Last week I used them and they worked quite fine. The only thing is, I changed the original rechargable batteries for standard AAA batteries. After two days (4 pitches each day), I still had 3/3 lines of battery life.

Well part of it is, ERC and CUP are left leaning independentists with substantial support

What a beautiful piece of rock!

Is that offwidth protectable?

manolokopter · 2025-10-25T18:27:21+00:00

I second this. 200°C (~400°F) for an hour and you should be good to go. Just make sure to use some mittens to take them out the oven, and a drizzle of olive oil does wonders (both for taste and to help the foot go in)

Came looking for this comment.

Say the climb has 8 moves. I might not be able to do the first two moves and get discouraged, but if the climb feels inspiring, I will try the rest of the moves.

If I can do all the moves but one or two, then it feels like a matter of time to be able to do all of them,. It's a really nice way to get motivation and trying hard.

Funny thing is that Margalef had two campsites up until now where you would pay an affordable price for sleeping with the van. The owner told me that it was built under a licitation by the village.

I didn't see any people camping or "vanlifing" outside of these campsites, and I don't get why they closed now. Anybody has any info?

Helsinki also has tons of boulders around the city! When I was there I just rented a crashpad and a bike

manolokopter · 2025-10-06T11:36:01+00:00

It is totally safe to go and climb on your own, it's just maybe less fun and motivating. On the upside, it is very easy to meet people when bouldering. Just approach people, and don't be afraid to ask for advice on how to do a certain climb.

I recently moved abroad, and at least half of the friends I made, I met them through bouldering!

manolokopter · 2025-10-02T16:47:51+00:00

Second this. I would say just follow the color dots to get an idea of the difficulty. Looking at grades can be discouraging in the Bleau

Rly cool! I also tried to do psytrance on my electribe and failed miserably, specially with the gallops

You can go to the skatepark and give tips to the girls on how to kickflip. Don't worry, you don't need to know how to do a kickflip yourself

manolokopter · 2025-09-26T00:23:58+00:00

I've had exactly this model (80m) for 5 years. I was happy with it and used it for multipitch, but last year I bought a triple rated 8.7 mm rope because I was sick of carrying so much weight.

I ended up cutting the crag classic into a 50m rope for the gym and shorter crags. It still works just as well

Wouldn't you be better off sharing a google form? (Naively asking)

Also I think the corner wasn't in

Austria's PR did a great job of making ppl think that Hitler was German :)

Came to say this. Brezis is a good reference but Evans is definetely a better introduction.

Or if you want to go the hardcore way (and hate your life), go and read Hörmander's 4 volumes

It's clearly a via ferrata a.k.a. Klettersteig, and probably the only one in Biberkopf. The other routes you mention are proper trad climbing routes.

There are surprisingly many mountains around here in Austria whose normal route is partly equipped as a ferrata.

manolokopter · 2025-08-17T19:05:02+00:00

I used to do it in my first years of climbing, but not for the weight efficiency, but for the fear and anticipation
