AKA "New Skool Pics By Request" and a contrast to the Old Skool thread. Maybe this could go places?? I'll kick things off....

This thread is either healthy satire or desperate middle-aged white men lamenting the loss of an intangible self-ideal they once though they had, and I can't decide which...
-
It's a Schrodinger thread and is both at the same time.

This is what sprung to mind when I saw the thread. I'd actually already nicked it and uploaded it to Flickr but hadn't got round to embedding yet.

I know right, so good. Just love the little look on his face, way more meangful than the pics of him chilling on the monster offwidth or whatever.
Although, this one too....

V15 for the first crux, which is a single move! Is that the hardest single move ever graded?
..if you get my drift ;)

I must have been putting in too much time on climbing history, 8 years feels like yesterday :lol:

Poignant though, as it may be lost forever to climbers.

I think this might be the defining metaphor for climbing during 2020/21:

Glad he was ok - that was a horrible fall. The groans just after impact bring back awful memories of some bad climbing accidents I’ve witnessed.

Beating the world's strongest plastic pullers with a casual 5.11 jam:

There was a problem in the Olympic men’s bouldering that had an obvious foot jam. I watched it saying to my completely disinterested other half “ha, he doesn’t even know how to jam his feet!” Then the guy in question not only did the problem by smearing on the side of the crack, he went on to win gold.
I felt like Alan Partridge when he’s gleefully watching a bloke trying to fill his car up from the wrong side.
“No point pulling it mate, it’s never going to reach.”
“He’s determined to make it reach!”
“Oh he has.”

Kudos to him for having the nerve to chalk up on the next move.

Every time I see this linked, I'll always watch it and rewatch it, over and over. Utterly amazing

Is that on Appointment with Death? The E9?!?

Yeah, and in the death zone IIRC :o

Yep, only a few moves off the top. Full footage is in his vid 'big balls and ground falls'.

Just The Big Island Assis into Conviction to go now.
-
Is this another indoor climber giving a name to a trivial link up???? :furious:
-
Certainly a bit of a :shit: name at least!
-
Surely should have been called Convict Island!

As an Australian I can say this without the cancel culture jumping up & down - the logical link up name would be Australia

Alcatraz would have been the obvious choice shirley :-\

Here's the video. Looks to me like a more logical low start to the big island than the the soudain seul start :shrug:

This definitely has potential to fit the thread. Didn't know whether to post it here or in "Quality auto belay videos".

Good to see Jarvis Cocker still getting work. I have to take the blame for this, I passed it on to our social media team. Still, it's better than Grimers "How to pick up a piece of rope" video, what a weapon.

Jesus....wtf

I thought it was keen youth in that video for a moment.

I always thought the defining image of post modern climbing was the one that Fiend reposted one time of Louis P and Gresh behind a laptop analyzing someone's performance stats. Do you remember it Matt, you wrote some really funny text under it.

That took bloody ages. Maybe a bit rude but "feng shui consultant" was quite good :ang:
-
I'd not seen that before, great stuff :lol:
-
I’d not seen that before, pretty shitty, low rent bantz.
-
Definitely. Unnecessarily obnoxious and also quite mistakenly disrespectful to one of Britain's few E11 climbers. A disgrace.
-
Are you not filled with terrible shame, Fiend

Keep speaking truth to aeropower.

Every day, Wellsy, yes.

Imagine a Pembroke version though. Someone to sort out your ab line, rack up your harness, coil your ropes afterwards. Maybe even send down a sarnie to your long suffering belayer. I'd pay at least £3 for that

"My reels are full of people sliding on dual-tex..."
I think being dunked head-first in an icy bog en-route to Grinah Stones (whilst following DingDong's lavish 84 page fully topoed named and graded Rockfax App guide) would be adequate punishment for this goon and anyone else setting such utter bollox.

Isn't that exactly the kind of luck based ledge-shuffling nonsense you love though

My main takeaway was why on earth is Ned in Mad Rock slippers.......!

When you’ve sent everything the only challenge left is climbing in mad rock slippers

No the ledges I shuffle on, before they fall into the sea, are not so damn slick and polished as that.

Not sure. Other athletes seem to be keeping going with them

Does that mean she's ditching Adidas totally?

People seem to love the drones, have met quite a few people who swear by them. Can't speak for ned though, obvs.
-
They have that molded heel that's apparently a game changer on certain heels
-
(I can understand Ned leaving 5.10 but Mad Rock?)
Is he even sponsored by them? I suspect he doesn't give two shits about sponsorship anymore, so can wear what he likes. Maybe they're actually good?
-
Maybe if they've got shitter friction, they work better* on, errr, dual-tex sliding problems??
* - this being very much contextual.
