Dyno.

Fontainbleau, Fontainebleu, Fontanebleau, etc

My old man refers to it as Fontaineberg for some reason.
;D I found that inexplicably amusing. Tremendous

Errrrr, if I was in his shoes, you'd need a crowbar to get me off #justsayin

Having said that if I was in his shoes, I'd hope not to be punting around using two arms for either of those exercises....

He's not getting the 2nd ascent of Burden Of Dreams with that sort of "training" for sure.

I'd like to add boulderers who do problems way below there grade and declare them as "Soft" regardless of how hard (or easy) they are for the given grade. They declare this either as loud as they can at the crag or on some sort of social media platform to look extra cool.

Richie Crouch classics include:

"I'm fuckin starvin"

"Me mouth's bleedin"

"Gis"

"Greasy bastard" (the irony of this one...)

"Badddd punter"



Not all are climbing-specific but you will hear them uttered if you climb with him long enough.

At the opposite end of the scale any route described as "hard for the grade", regardless of how hard it is relative to how I'm climbing, takes on an air of desperation in my mind.  Three star uber-classics also feel like they'll be harder than other routes of the same grade and to a degree so do reachy routes. Throw in an epic first-ascent tale and perhaps I'll just go bouldering instead.

Those old blue 100 Classics topo guides (Ashton?) were especially good at making every route in them sound like you'd be lucky to survive.

Back in the day the Welsh one was supposedly nicknamed the 'Ashton book of death' by local mountain rescue teams...
