6 8Cs... bloody hell!

Assuming these aren't just 6 variations of the same climb, then that is very impressive.

So apart from a frankly ridiculous ticklist, what else did he benefit from leaving team GB?

Any idea what 1st go means as opposed to flash? Does it share moves with others that he climbed maybe?

Absolutely unreal. He says in a comment it shares the start hold with another problem so he doesn’t consider it a flash. That’s very strict in my book. But I guess it is a clear line in sand. Any shared moves/holds = no flash.

Wow, even more impressive then! Very high standards, it would've been easy to just call it a flash. Great trip  :bow:

I can't believe anyone would consider shared holds to mean anything else

If it's literally just the start hold that is shared then you're not really practising the moves on one problem by trying the other. I'd probably take the flash on both, what with my loose morals.

+1, even if I just pulled my ass of the floor and then dropped off I'd have blow the flash on anything sharing holds imo

An equivalent scenario might be in the Cave where you had already done RA. Could you still flash Cave Life? (the starting holds being the same) The jury's out...

That how it begins, next you'll be crouching a sit start, off 4 pads, 3 moves in, 2 meters to the right of the actually climb, dabbing your way to finish with a one hand "match" drop off, on a recently excavated jug, below the top out, and claiming your first 7A.

No. Make your choice on the flash go ofc!

Shit, thought I'd taken that video down :lol:

On reflection I think everyone's probably right. Easier to avoid the ambiguity and just say you can't flash two problems if one of them shares holds with another.

Surely it's the moves that are important; the moves of the two problems are totally different right from pulling on, so there's no way in my mind that doing one would invalidate the flash on the other. Logically you're implying that even touching the start hold without pulling on would invalidate the flash; it's the same thing.

Not quite. Pulling onto a start hold and taking both feet off the floor, then stepping off again, would invalidate a flash n’est-ce pas?

So based on this principle, you can discount a very large proportion of flashed problems on the Moonboards.

Logically you're implying that even touching the start hold without pulling on would invalidate the flash; it's the same thing.

Soon you'll be saying that taking a hold with your left hand on one problem means you can use it with your right hand to flash an adjacent problem. Then before you know it, you'll be crouching a sit start, off 4 pads, 3 moves in, 2 meters to the right ... and claiming your first 7A.

But more seriously, consider a problem where the start holds, and feet, are terrible and they require a good bit of effort to hold and move from, having held and cranked off those holds previously for one problem would be a huge advantage mentally, and physically, when "flashing" another problem.

Also what actually counts as a move? If you have to do a few foot moves to place a cruxy high heel before you even move your hands, can you do that on both problems as long as you go in a different direction to different holds afterwards?

"Any grey area in climbing will always get abused" (36chambers' Law), so why not make the definition as clean cut as possible?

Is it still a flash if you tape a book to your leg, then use the same book on a different problem?

If they share the same start, you need to use a different book for each problem. I recommend carrying the Harry Potter series around, as they get thicker as the series progresses, should cover the full range.

All very good, reasonable points I'm sure but I'd still be having it and I don't mind who knows it!

Reminded me of the Ondra film called the “wizards apprentice” ten years ago. Bosi is a deserving heir for that epithet.

Ha. That is funny actually.
This Bosi Czech ticklist is utterly ridiculous though. I can't fathom. Dave Graham has just had arguably his best season ever over in Swizzle and the list doesn't compare..
