I know it's called Born Dabby and I'd easily forgive the more minor ones, but does he actually stand on the block down and right?

Very amusing, poor lad.

But that's not the worst thing about that video. What is that problem? I don't know what Balenciaga is but it is not that.

Right...I think i am more of a solo unit than a Brigade.

As for the accused- Who did the first ascent and what is their Beta?{thus setting the rules}.
is there a general consensus on how it is climbed.

As i have said before, i think a mass pile on is Not the kindest way to help peolple reflect on possible mistakes.

It reflects badly on US.

As for Fiend- Love yer Socks :P

First ascent - https://www.instagram.com/tv/CbGIZjwFxIQCtMZBfPC8uysjFH6eIE0FdQhGKU0/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

"No foot blocks. No dabbing."

Second ascent - https://www.instagram.com/tv/CbH7tJRJcgD/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

Pretty clear right?

With all the quality 7C's at Stanage, why on earth would anyone choose that as their first? Bewildering.

Just do Brass Monkeys like everyone else.

I think the big issue here is that is not a "possible" mistake.

He has stood on the ground and sprayed on the Internet that he has climbed his first 7c.

Clearly he hasn't, would anyone think that is legit?

I'm not sure a bunch of sad old climbers discussing a valid ascent is a pile on in any shape or form.

I'm fairly sure none of the posters would have any issue saying exactly what they have written to anyone's face, so there's nothing nasty or underhand just a typical boring climbers discussion.

Back back back and back around

As far as I can tell, that's the actual method? So not a dab, just weird rules  :shrug:

Yep that is just how Thundering Apoplexy is traditionally done / written up in the guide.

It does look like he stands on the block, but you have a massive jug in your hand at that point so I don't know why. Sounds like he's going back to do this king line without standing on the ground.

It's subtle but it's there.
