If you mean these

They are quite hard, especially maintaining a slight posterior pelvic tilt.
Why do you ask, don't you have direct experience?

2 Questions Nibs,

What the fuck are those shoes? And are you hard-wired into the matrix? (screen in background)

The shoes are Nike Air Rift.
The Matrix is always on.
In reality it's just a window with light filtering through.

Due to injuries (both physical and mental) I've not climbed much over the last year, but thanks to CBA I hauled my weak body up a 7A+ at a very hot Brownstones today. I know its not a big number, but just pulling on rock, at any grade felt great.

Brilliant. Nice work Mr F  :2thumbsup:  Maybe you need to update your profile  ;D Mind you, I've felt like an ex-climber for about 20 years!

Fuck me - getting anything with a 7 at Brownstones in today's heat deserves a medal...

Thanks for dragging me out, I appreciate the support. If felt bloody brilliant moving over rock. I'd forgotten how soothing it is on the mind.

Think this my first post on YYFY but it feels warranted..

Girlfriend's outdoor MoonMoffattboard project completed last weekend after tons of hard work put in by her with a little bit of help from me. Got it weatherproofed too. 4 spinning t-nuts out of 110, not bad for beginners!

I'm sure it was just 'first time back on rock in ages psyche'. I'll be back to my usual bimbly level in no time at all.

As Tom can't do a pull up I'm not sure how he'd get the tick. Must rule out a lot of the ladies as well.

Chuffed!

Nice. If I attempted a one arm ab rollout I'd have to have toilet paper stuffed up my nose for a week.

My minor yyfy for this week is locating an ex-display but otherwise as new set of 10-year old Pace RC39 forks for my RC300 build.

I recommend arching your back over so you look at the world upside down though... no tick for an overhanging upward facing dog??

Awesome! I always wanted an RC200 - more than a Klein or anything else. (Maybe apart from a Fat Chance...)

Pics?

I wanted an RC200 but then this frame came up for sale and it was totally mint. They're the same except for the carbon seat tube a mount for discs and internal routing. Will try and get some up when I get chance  - prob this weekend. Are you on insta? might be quicker to stick a pic on there.
