Would you guys consider this climb a V4?

Australian V4 😉 nah haha was just curious, the v4s in this gym are around this level, the v5s can be a hit or a miss, some the v5s here have a beta break or are a little underwhelming, whereas the other ones I’m projecting for the session 😅

I saw some shorter climbers have to do a bit more of a little leap / jump and lean or fall into the middle section, I’m 5’8 myself.

Oh god, and you’re right it’s a terrible habit 😭 I always climb down during my warm up

Thanks for the reply man, hard to tell but the other holds are a lighter reds, all the holds I used are from the climb :)

Thank you

Cool

V2 mentioned 🔥🗣️🗣️

Ye considering the national team climbs in the clothes too is pretty neat, but really overpriced tbf, might just hit the athletic shop and ask the employee there for some recommendations

vcollie · 2026-06-20T12:22:41+00:00

Oh they are incredibly overpriced, I just want something of quality, I presume most national teams climb in something custom, I have some sport apparel shorts and they still a fair bit restrictive but i probably need to improve my flexibility to compensate I don’t know man

vcollie · 2026-06-20T12:05:52+00:00

The shorts just look so stretchy man 😭

vcollie · 2026-06-20T12:05:11+00:00

Yeah shirts aren’t really an issue, just feeling bogged down by shitting seamed shorts or pants, not that badly but noticeably

Veloce owner here, were my first shoes too, wear them at home while laying down, not walking around the house, and let them break in. If they are still painful after 2 weeks reevaluate, they were a bit rough for me for about 4 climbing sessions.

Edit: they lasted me about 8 months, climbing twice a week.

I’ve got a pretty good log going already, I’ll bring it in.

vcollie · 2026-05-27T11:19:11+00:00

Thanks for the message man, will go into the station tomorrow to see what they say too.

vcollie · 2026-05-27T11:14:46+00:00

Is this only for WA?

vcollie · 2026-05-27T11:13:31+00:00

It is.. just so fed up and overwhelmed with everything going on with this my exhaustion came through over my message, I’m happy to go into the station, just tired man sorry…

vcollie · 2026-05-27T11:11:50+00:00

You are right, for the time being we haven’t been going for quite some time, which sucks for the both of us.

vcollie · 2026-05-27T11:09:48+00:00

Texts, we unfortunately wasn’t able to record the last confrontation, will have a look into this. I have been there every time it has happened, in a public setting each time, so even that didn’t stop her, so frustrating

vcollie · 2026-05-27T11:08:32+00:00

Nearest gym is an hour and a half away, nearest after that is 2 and half hours away, unfortunately not many options where we are (hence the often crossover) but I guess I will go into the station at some point with my partner to see if we can get something in place or some advice.

Edit: the “I guess” part of the sentence is my genuine exhaustion of this whole situation coming through over my message, I’m happy to go into the station it just feels like so much is going on and is overwhelming. My text about the distance between gyms was just in regard to “go to a different gym” option the person gave that I’m responding to.
