Ok, apart from a few exceptions, this seems to be the rule - why is this?

Lack of features?

Most of the bouldering near me is in quarrys so I guess it depends on the rock type and the type of quarrying that was done...

Because, right, the wind and water, they, like, create natural sculptures, which are kind of, like, templates for our movement, and we have to listen deep within ourselves to understand these, right? etc etc.........



Sorry, just been reading Glen Dales John Gill interview......

:D   Seriously though, I am quite a fan of Gill's hippyness when it comes to bouldering, and I think he speaks a lot of sense.

Certainly better than just being grade obsessed and just trying to pull hard all the time, getting stressy when you don't perform and getting pissy if your mates burn you off.

I know that's the other end of the scale, but I have met people like that.

Indeed, it makes a refreshing change.

Now where did I put my PDA? I need to update my bouldering grade average spreadsheet........

Went to Brownstones on Wednesday. Some excellent problems but polished to hell in places.
