Technique can be learned you know. Its not all genetic.
Paul you are being disingenuous. You just said yourself he didn’t achieve his potential, is this not the very definition of underachievement?
Of course he ‘did something right’, but does this mean his approach is a flawless paradigm to follow?

Its not all genetic.There are two components to technique (I think)...a) Having the required range of movement to place fingers/hands/feet in the correct position.b) Being able to read moves (quickly) and see what works.
Which I think is best developed climbing well within your grade on rock. Unfortunately folk desperate to improve tend to concentrate on climbing beyond their grade indoors.
climber B meanwhile develops a hunchback and is Leo Moger.
Of course you'd want to be like Malc not steve he's weak!
will someone please explain, why is open (not always open just open) the WRONG way? There are moves that require it.
Then they go climbing outside, find the measured strength gain allows some progress but not what they'd hoped, assume they need to train harder, apply feedback loop, result donkey.
