How do you measure your reach with your chin on the first rung?  Surely you have to let go with both arms and so fall off?  Unless you've got a chin like Bentley of course.

We're only passing time until we die. It's not a big deal.

This thread reinforces my hatred of tall people. Tall people are bad enough but tall people playing the short person's excuse card are truly appalling.

  :agree:

I read an interview with Ondra recently where he said that even though he's climbing harder grades faster than 3/4 years ago he's doesn't think he's gotten any stronger, just taller.

Climbing is an inherintly morpho activity. I'm just waiting for the body part transplant that can give me smaller hands and about 3 inches extra height, I'll be much better then  :boohoo:  ::)

As the other diminutive gent on this forum I'd just like to add a big amen to that shit.

Can someone let The Sausage know that Morrissey has been posting using his logon

Morrissey, Jerry... have you ever seen any of us in a room together?

You might wanna have a look at the article "On the art of grading boulder problems": http://www.warmsys.com/mog/Arikler/Buldretekst/ARTBOUL8b.html
