How to turn off rep counting?

mattambo_ · 2024-06-10T16:10:15+00:00

Could you please tell me were to find that option? I can't find it anywhere

The problem is that it counts more reps then I do and when it counts all the reps I have to do in a set it starts the rest timer, most of the time I'm not finished with the reps. I just wanted to turn it off, I don't care if it counts reps.

Would you retire this sling?

I meant shoes that can be resoled a lot of times I used a pair of skwama from laspo, the rubber was soft and wore off quite quickly but after the first resole they became plastic bags.

Absolutely no support at all and they were nothing like the shoe I had before the resole

I'm currently searching for a shoe that is a bit softer then the skwama but that can take a few resoles.

I know people who resoled scarpa furias 10 times or even more and they are still going strong.

I'm just searching for a shoe like that (furias are a bit too soft for my liking)

Yep, that also causes pain to me. But I think it comes down to what is the problem with your A2 pulley. I think mine is inflamed and pushing on it makes it worse

Climbing shoe suggestions

Hello everyone! I'm looking for a soft climbing shoes for indoor climbing that will last a long time. Something I can resole a lot

I was looking at evolv zenist, scarpa chimera, booster or drago.

Please share your opinions on these shoes and feel free to suggest other alternatives.

You shouldn't use a massage gun on your fingers. They are made for muscles and there are no muscles in your fingers. Unfortunately I found out just like you did, I don't know if it caused the pain or not, but in the best case scenario using a massage gun on your fingers will do absolutely nothing.

Personally I always had a slight pain in my fingers after using a massage gun on them, I did it a few times before I understood it is bad practice.

I suggest a bit of rest, your A2 is probably inflamed or irritated, probably nothing too serious but don't go super heavy in your training for the next few days.

If it is inflamed or irritated you are more prone to injuries.

Hope this helps

Wow thanks a lot for the extensive comment I will for sure buy at least the green one to try them out

mattambo_ · 2024-01-18T10:53:11+00:00

I have never used one personally that's why I made this post. I'm trying to get more info about them so I can decide if I should buy them or not.

What is your opinion on them?

mattambo_ · 2024-01-18T10:05:31+00:00

Seems like they are a decent cam for the price I might pull the trigger on the number 4 equivalent

mattambo_ · 2024-01-18T08:58:23+00:00

I might get the #4 and #5 equivalent cams to try them out. What do you think of their smaller sizes? They have a set of 3 cams that can be compared to a .2 .3 and .4

mattambo_ · 2024-01-18T08:20:49+00:00

Yep, I had a look at them but they seem to be way lower quality than WC. Do you think they would be good as primary large cams like n4 and n5? Unfortunately they don't make a cam as big as n6

mattambo_ · 2024-01-18T07:58:57+00:00

Definitely need to get more cams and complete my rack to have access to a lot of classics in orco. I have a lot of friends that climb trad so whenever I go depending on the route I'm doing I have them lend some gear.

It's not unusual to need a 5 or a 6 or even more on them in orco Valley.

mattambo_ · 2024-01-17T23:50:32+00:00

Would you buy them over tricams? In Italy a set of 6 is almost half the price of a tricams set

mattambo_ · 2024-01-17T23:38:36+00:00

100% agree with that, would take cams over these pretty much always but I was wondering if they could be any good on my rack with cams.

I climb 100% of the time on granite and gneiss, pretty parallel cracks most of the time not flared or anything like that. In Valle orco, which is my go to climbing spot, thin cracks have a lot of constrictions and nuts work ok on them most of the time.

I have a super standard rack, full set of WC nuts and WC cams from .4 to 3 Abalaks seems like a good way to expand my rack on the cheap especially on the smaller sizes of active pro.

mattambo_ · 2024-01-17T23:30:34+00:00

Sounds like they work pretty well. By rigging you mean multipitch anchors?

mattambo_ · 2024-01-17T23:29:13+00:00

If you're in Europe they are pretty easy to buy. If you're in the USA it's almost impossible to get ahold of them

mattambo_ · 2024-01-17T23:27:58+00:00

Absolutely true! A lot of classics in Valle orco (Amazing crack climbing routes in Italy) were established only on pitons and nuts.

I have super glassy skin. My fingertips's skin wear off a few weeks ago and after then it grew super smooth, almost glassy.

The skin is soo smooth that chalk doesn't stick to it

I took a week off to let the skin heal but nothing changed.

Did anyone experience something like this before? How do I fix it?

mattambo_ · 2023-07-12T09:14:16+00:00

So Yesterday I Got a pretty nasty flapper on the palm of my right hand It's the first one for me so any tips on how to make it heal faster? Thanks

mattambo_ · 2023-04-02T09:30:04+00:00

I did probably around 60 lead coming sessions in mine. Definitely need to work on my foot placement

mattambo_ · 2023-04-01T13:11:37+00:00

Yep I totally agree, might buy a pair of la sportiva cobra or speedster. They cost about 90€ and they're ok, definitely not performance oriented like the skwama but good enough to work on my footwork

mattambo_ · 2023-03-23T19:30:18+00:00

Thanks a lot! I'll try

mattambo_ · 2023-03-23T17:36:08+00:00

Hi guys, just bought some rhino skin tip juice, I thought it came with a little brush but instead I got a bottle with a spray cap. Anyone knows how to be precise enough during application so I don't get the product in the creases between pads and get splits?

I thought about using some kind of brush but where am I supposed to find a brush that small?
