And why is it stupid? It just is. It means nothing. And don't start in with the "But it's sooo fun!" sh#t. I know it's fun--so is Playstation. But when you're trad climbing and you're at the crux 10 feet above your last gear, and you realize you have enough juice left to either put in another piece, or try the move--but not the juice to do both!--now that's climbing. Thank you for your time. Now, back to your crags.

Dude, trad climbing is stupid. It's too easy. That is why sport is around, so those of us who can climb way harder, will. Who cares about a f*#king 5.9 that you have to protect. Big deal. I can go do a 5.13 and not have to carry all that extra sh#t just to climb some 5.9.

Go climb a 5.11 trad route. Problably won't need much gear. Takes more sack than some 5.13 bolted job.

Donny's got it right. And the best sport climbing is gym climbing. I can rip off scads of 5.12's in a row without any problem, no approach, bathrooms are right there, soft landings and the holds are easier to find. Not only that, but the routes change all the time, so I don't even have to find new places. It's so stupid to lug all that crap up to some granite crag, I mean, you want to climb not hike, right? And then I can take my shirt off and the chicks (and dudes) wanna piece of my stuff. I often can't believe how cool I am. But one look in the mirror and I remember what a ballsy dude I am. I'd f*#k myself if I could.

Donny, Just remember, trad climbing actually adds difficulty to the grade of a climb. There are both trad and sport leads up to a very high degree of difficulty, (5.13) and few would argue that placing gear on those routes doesn't add a degree of difficulty. Maybe you're just too wussy to place gear on routes at your limit. Or maybe you can't take the pain of difficult crack climbing?

I really like broccoli. Spinach and green beans are really good for you too. Carrots taste good, but I don't like the texture after they're cooked. Canned and frozen vegetables can be as nutritious as fresh -- and in many cases more so. It is important for your diet to follow the proportions of the food pyramid. Size up your recipes according to food groups. A burrito has ingredients from the grain group (tortilla), the vegetable (lettuce and tomato), the meat group (ground meat or beans), and the dairy group (cheese). It makes a well-rounded meal.

Donny’s ability, or lack there of, to create a sentence in the English language, is a prime example of why he sport climbs. No thought required! His big decisions are: Where do I hang my draws on my harness? Which direction should my biner face while clipping? And what do I wear to show off the most muscle? The thought of Donny actually having to figure out what piece of gear to place, figuring out the best orientation, deciding if it should be extended, and if the rock is solid ( all things that quickly go through the mind of a trad climber )…is something that is most likely beyond his scope. So let’s easy up on Donny and be thankful that sport climbing exist for people like him.

Like C-head said "climbing is climbing". What makes a climber? A climber is one who enjoys and is experienced at ALL aspects of his/her sport, not just one. Sport climbing is only one aspect of climbing. And Donny, you really seem to be a numbers guy! Lets see where that gets you when you get to the next bolt....and its been chopped because Mark wilford climbed your 5.13 on gear in 1989. Get real, get some experience, or head back to the gym and be like every other victim of the post 2000 vision that gym climbing should be brought outdoors (i.e. sportclimbing). Next thing you know, ol' Donny will be out there slapping some colored duct tape next to each hold on the sportclimb that he's top-roping.

It's too commiting, the falls too dangerous, the routes too long, and the gear is too heavy. I'm too much a wooly woofter to handle all that hard work.

True story. A few years ago I found myself at the campground near the base of Devils Tower with three sport climbers who were bragging about climbing 5.11 at their local indoor wall.

In the morning when they got their first sight of the tower one of them was so scared he wouldn't even climb, the other two would follow Durrance 5.6/7, if I would lead it.

I led them to the top doing a couple pitches without gear just to rub it in. They were happy to have summited the tower but one of them, knowing he would never use his shiney new gear, sold me about $500 worth of Camalots, stoppers, and biners for $80.

I love sportclimbers, they leave lots of booty when they bail.

Hey Donny...there is nothing wrong with climbing in a gym. In the off season I teach an intro to climbing class, stressing safety ( I would let any of my students belay me ), as well as technique classes. But the best part of teaching in a gym is being able to pro-deal gear! And with ice season just around the corner...gear get's a bit pricey. Ever try ice? You won't get to far with a handful of draws and spandex!

Those of you who think you are better just because you climb trad exclusively are missing the boat. Why don't you screw trad and sport alike and free-solo everything? Then you really don't have to lug all that gear. Be like Bachar who resolved one summer not to tie into the rope at all.

Hey Donnie, there are morons everywhere you go...Get used to it my friend. Unfortunate for you though, ill have to include myself into your idea of a moron, because i am on the Trad guys side. Ive climbed some sport routes, but there just isnt anything like placing gear and being up on the big stone. Limiting yourself to nothing but sport climbing wont get you to the truly radical places on the earth...Youve pretty much limeted yourself to what you can climb. I on the other hand prefer trad, becuase the only limits are my abilities. The possibilities of the things i can climb are endless. If you want to limit yourself to plastic and overhanging sport routes, thats your call, but no way in hell am i going to place limits on myself like that.

Donnie, you seem to be ripping into people for trashing sport climbers, but sounds more like your the one trashing trad climbers. In my opinion, there are only two types of climbers....Climbers and Sport climbers. You dont even need to add the Trad. Climbers climb because they enjoy it. It makes them feel good, It takes you to places where most dont get to go. Climbing makes an all around better person...Sport climbers on the other hand climb because they want to be good at something. Correction the best. They climb to show off their tallents (if you can call it that) and how hard they actually can climb. The good feeling comes from the fact that they are showing off their shirtless bodies to as many girls and guys that they can find...They constantly climb and look around to see who is watching them...To make sure that they are the top dog at the gym or the crag.

Climbers (TRAD) prefer to get away from the crowds of people and usually dont give a S#!T if anyone is watching them...They prefer to find a route that isnt congested in order to enjoy nature and enjoy the climb. When there are hords of people they usually turn and go somewhere else. Unlike the sport climbers who leave their quick draws on a route and piss on people who dont climb quite as well as they do.

dude trad guys are always taking thier shirts off and lots of chicks are always showing alot of skin when they climb no matter what style. I dont go shirtless in the guym except for some days in summer. I just think that hard sport pushes your climbing skills more then trad and I think thats what climbing is all about. If you want to go someplace cool you can hike there so I like hard sport and ya I do like to climb better. So I think I push harder,witch is why I rather climb a hard sport 5.13 then any 5.8 or 5.9 trad.

Hey this Donny is a real kick! Since it's so easy why doesn't he go up and fire the Nose all free, after all there are no hard trad climbs. Since Donny writes like he is quite young I wonder if he has ever heard of Lynn Hill or Ron Kauk. They place pro red pointing hard 13's and clip bolts red pointing 14's. Lynn even ran it out a long ways on the Great Roof on her one day free ascent of the Nose so maybe she has more sack than any guy. The best part is that they are probably old enough to be his parents. Good luck Donny but with your attitude I doubt you will ever catch them!

The most stupid, moronic, etc. aspect of this topic is defining any activity people enjoy as "stupid." An activity may seem stupid if a person doesn't like it, but it's simply is what it is. If a person likes simplicity, relative safety and pure gymnastic activity in his/her climbing, sport climbing is a great way to achieve it. I don't relish sport climbing, but I can understand its appeal.

Maybe some people take offense at something they like being called "stupid" because they think the definition is referencing them personally. (?)

I can absolutely see why any non-climber could call all forms of climbing "stupid". Hell, Batso was probably right...

Your invective aside, I'm with ya. Though I much prefer trad, I love the fact that there are several facets of climbing. Pick the one that suits you, who cares what anybody thinks/says.

Frozen and canned vegetables can be as nutrious as fresh vegetables, according to a recent study. Nutrients are "locked in" when vegetables are canned or frozen, while fresh vegetables lose nutrients steadily.

Here's some news to make your life easier: You can get the nutritional benefits of vegetables by choosing convenient canned and frozen varieties. Researchers at the University of Illinois, Champaign Urbana, compared the effects of processing, storage and cooking on the nutrient content of vegetables in a study conducted for Green Giant. The most in-depth research to date on the subject, this study encompassed vegetables from field to plate.

Fresh vegetables suffer during storage
------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What we learned in the study was that when vegetables are canned or frozen, the nutrients are 'locked in,'" says Barbara Klein, the principal investigator on the research team. Processing, or the initial heating step, results in a small loss of nutrients. Once that's finished, there's no further change in nutrient content over the shelf life of frozen and canned vegetables. In contrast, fresh vegetables from the supermarket steadily lose nutrients from the time of harvest until they are purchased and brought home, usually about two weeks later. Nutrients continue to diminish during home storage, which can be a week or more and, in the case of some vegetables like carrots, much longer.

We don't eat enough vegetables
----------------------------------------------------

In another study, also conducted for Green Giant, the Opinion Research Corporation of Princeton, N.J., found that 65 percent of those surveyed say they eat only one or two servings of vegetables daily, in contrast to the three to five daily servings recommended in the Food Guide Pyramid. Some 37 percent of those surveyed said they don't eat more vegetables because they don't have time, or that vegetables require to much effort to prepare.

donny:
I think sport climbing is easier than trad climbing, and that's why I like trad climbing. Don't blame the "style" of climbing when you can't push yourself on a trad route. The problem with your "logic" is simple:
You thought trad was easy because you were on easy routes. You think sport is hard because you climb hard routes when you sport climb.
Why don't you go try a hard trad route?

However I must say that you (Donny) seem, ahh, how do I put this nicely...Full of sh#t. Be that as it may, if you really are a sport climber, and are good enough to lead 5.12's then might I suggest (if you ever do get to CA) you try some of the sport routes at the pinnacles. I'm sure you would enjoy the well bolted routes on excellent solid rock....

Funny thing is, there's a whole shitload of people who think that trad is better (in many various ways) to sport, and not a whole lot who argue the other way. They argue 1) sport is superior out of sheer difficulty, as though preplaced gear and lack of an R/X fall isn't a difficulty downgrade. Or 2) come on, let's just all get along. Or 3) all climbing is meaningless anyway, which kind of begs the question. Hmm. Makes a feller think.

Everybody should just shut the f*#k up!

Aid climbing is what its all about.
Standing on your aiders and knowing that if the hook you're on blows, you're in for a 200 footer, because there's nothing below you that will hold. You'll probobly nail the block below you, then deck on the belay ledge, and have cerebral fluid leeking from your ears, while your spine is crushed and there's a blood stain on the ledge for another 3 years.

Now that takes sack.

My small problem with aid: there's all this talk about new wave and body weight placements and death falls, as aidman has illustrated, and at the same time there are hundreds of parties swarming hard aid route (the Reticent is one example), supposedly making these outrageous moves over death falls. I'm not saying its not hard climbing (you don't see me up there) but if it really WERE as hard as the hype says, somebody would have splattered by now just because of statistics--blown a loose flake, zippered a pitch, decked a ledge, SOMETHING. Aid climbing, however, is not stupid, not like sport. Aid deals with fear, which is why it means something, and it involves beer as well. In fact, aid falls under the category of traditional climbing.

Hi, you sucker! If you are on the niveau of the playstation then sportclimbing for you is stupid because you are so! I wish you all the best for hard limestone moves in Austrian or German areas... Granite is good for trad, try to place gear in roundes, flared offwidth washed out cracks and climb than ten feed a 5.10c move... you will definetly need diapers. An alpine sportclimbing route is instead of a life-risk still moderate. I´m glad that there is sportclimbing, because if everybody that sportclimbs would climb trad, you will have thousands of climbers in the trad areas. Have fun when a voice says: "now serving number 356" at the base of nutcracker.
Oh. are you such a good climber to make a judgement which sort of climbing is good and which not, I think you have no right. Even the real good trad climbers are good sportclimbers (Wolfgang Gullich, Ron Kauk, Huber-Brothers). I think you avoid sportsclimbing and look for the hidden trad-crag where nobody can see you and trad climb your 5.2´s with your own pro...
Have fun in your little stupid square and climb your hidden crag

* NEWS FLASH * Climbing News reported today that a group calling it's self "5.9 Them All" is planning to place artificial climbing holds over the entire mass of El Capitan, a granite monolith in Yosemite National Park, CA.

In addition, the group will place protection bolts and hangers in proximity to these new holds at intervals of not less than 8 feet, nor more than 12 feet.

In a related story, the "American Line & Rope Co." of St Louis, MO., is producing 6,300' 11m ropes to facilitate top roping the new climbing structure.

Donnie,
You're lucky that you don't have to work, but leeching off of your parents won't last long. Sooner or later you'll be hauling your candy ass out into the real world. Here is an employment idea for when you get out on your own, but first, go back and finish high school (remember, you have to do this BEFORE you search for a job.) You could work for Mick Ryan at Rockfax.com... where you guys could spoon together on your crash pads, eating veggies and rice cakes, wearing your pink paisley lycra tights (wall climbers can't wear tights because of their large sacs.) Mick could try to teach you proper grammar and spelling! You could also go back to the powder room and train extra hard until you can send hard 5.14s. THEN, you'll get sponsored. So get back to work, dumb ass!

I only keep climbibg in my brain so i can focus on what really matters, FREEclimbing. But y fags are so busy thinking about placing gear instead of doing hard,hard moves and clip nice bolts! And if there is no holds big enough it´s really good to place/drill a artifically hold right on the wall, just like LEO H did on Le Cup... There was some doode chipping holds in the nose of Le Cup too, so i guess many climbers understands what matters... Maybe the truth is that u are not good enough i the gym mr.satan so y hide away on some stupid wall where y can fag around i the shadows.!

Hi Don
I hope that you understand the meaning of climbing without treat everybody like a trash, because everybody has the choice to choose what they want to practice in their own, you live in a free country so, try to have peace yourself. There is a lot of anger in your heart. If you do not feel comfortable with climbing, it's ok. Give it up! Look for other thing that you like , and the most important thing be happy!!:), and try to talk without bad words, be smart to have a serious forum about climbing. I think your are in the wrong place..and really be careful with the feelings that you have in your heart, it will be worst if you keep those bad feelings inside of you, believe me, you are not a climber. To be a climber, you born to do this , you feel the passion in your veins, and you love this forever and ever. So, you do not have a clue what is this. You will find good friends in this place, because we love climbing. We breath love for this sport and for everything, we learned the feeling with the time. Good Luck!

I just love never reaching the top of a cliff and being surrounded by bolt loving morons when I go climbing. Gyms are especialy cool because then I never have to go outside to pull on crimpy holds and there's no cracks there so I don't have to have any tecnique to impress the ladies. I don't break my nails in the gym either, Donny, don't you like that part too?

Now hold on there AngryT. I boulder, boulder a lot as a matter of fact! Eegaad, I even sport climb, though not that frequently anymore. I don't think it makes me any less of a climber. I've also done new routes in Alaska, climbed 5.12OW's in Vedauwoo, and more than a few desert towers. If I were forced to only climb in one mode for the rest of my days though, I'd probably take bouldering and can the rest. If for no other reason than because the cooler is always close by and nothin' beats sittin' on the pad, watching the sun go down over the rez, sippin' a Sheaf Stout with yer buds, and wonderin' what the po' folks are doin' this evening.

Donny, you're comparing 5.13 sport to 5.9 trad? Why don't you try a 5.13 trad, that'll give you a better idea of what's harder. Compare oranges to oranges not apples. Any 5.13 climb whether trad, sport, or ice beats any 5.9 climb. Compare routes with the same rank then make your judgement on which is harder. But to each their own, climb what you want. Just remember we're all climbing no need to get all jihad on each other.

I went back to the gym (It's been 2 years) and a guy (gym rat/boulder bi*** type) came up and asked about my dreads, then said jason kell (?never herd of him)soloed a 5.14. My response " killer he should solo Astroman it's only 11c and it's way classic". He looked at me with a wacked out grin and walked away.

Jason Kehl, 27, first set eyes on the Rumney, New Hampshire, testpiece The Fly three years ago, and became fixated by it. The 25-foot line is New Hampshire's hardest--5.14d or V14--with a tricky exit crux at 20 feet. On November 7, the highball specialist consummated his dark desire by sending The Fly ropeless, for its fifth ascent. Battling a month of poor conditions, Kehl spent 10 days toprope-soloing the line--mainly in the dark by headlamp--prior to bouldering it out. "The wall has crazy sparkles all over it in the light of the headlamp," says Kehl. "It's interesting being up there at night alone ... it gives you a lot to think about."


With pads and spotters in place, Kehl took five 20-foot falls onto the climb's uneven landing zone, then "ripped it" on his second day of ropeless effort. (He had flubbed the crux, opening move roughly 20 times that day.) "Bouldering The Fly was this crazy dream I had," says Kehl. "I don't think I would've been happy with less.

cool thread..... before my time. where did all these hellraisers go? Yeah well, I like slacklinein', sport climbing, trad climbing, but bouldering sucks. I hate long approaches in the heat, hauling a heavy sack.... I wonder sometimes if I'm sane at all. And then there's all those A.4 sickos up on the heart ledges... what's up with that. Some dude had an old seat belt on for God's sake. Please tell me it wasn't his harness.

Climbing on rocks is for sheilas - cause rocks don't move.

Now try planting yer footsies on a 2 inch branch 180 feet up a red gum eucalytpus tree while grabbing onto a fresh koala for dinner - now that's CLIMBING.

Koala - if they weren't meant to be eaten - why did God make them so slow?

Hemmingway once said "There are three true sports, motor racing, bullfighting and mountain climbing, all others are games" (probably not a exact quote).

I say we change the names. Since in saying mountian climbing he probably means crack climbing I say we now call "Trad climbing" "Sport climbing" and "Sport climbing" "Game climbing".

I have a friend that says if you are aid climbing you are not climbing (just like you are not climbing when you grab holds on a rock face and clip into artificial gear). It's really just the stupidest stance I've ever heard.

what a bunch of macho bullsh#t.
climbing is climbing, be it sport, trad, freesolo, bouldering or what ever. these deuschbags that think they have bigger balls because they only trad climb make me laugh.
it's a typical peabrain attitude to think that what you do is so much more adventerous and tough and ballsy than what others choose to do. the fact is, the people that think thier way is the only way live in a world one tenth the size of mine with narrow mind(s) and fantasy bravado.
i mostly climb trad but i climb whatever i want, whenever i want. i climb a lot, but i don't climb with whiny fools.

My experience has been that people who say sport climbing sucks
can't climb their way out of a paper bag. They can barely go from one bolt to the next so they just declare it stupid.

Go to Europe(Verdon, etc) and try some of their "sport climbs". You'll be pissing your pants between bolts there so far apart.

Climbing is climbing!

She would definitely sport climb since only hippie liberals trad climb...sport climbing definitely appeals to neo-cons.

The only type of climbing I don't like is kicking steps in steep snow. Call me a hedonist but sport climbing has opened up a lot of quality rock. The first pitch of End Game in The Stronghold and She's the Bosch at the COR are wonderful forays on beautiful sculpted granite that would not be there for our delight without bolts.
