When I say they need to close the box, I mean World Athletics, not Nike. Clearly one company wouldn’t unilaterally get rid of a massive performance advantage.
I've still to see why it's any difference in progress in climbing shoe design, which (I guess) everyone on here grasps with both hands. Or should we all still be wearing PAs?
I understand the argument, but to me it’s a false equivalence. I think it’s because there’s a massive element of mechanical advantage from carbon shoes - the carbon is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting.
If someone made “Crimping Hooks (TM)” - steel hooks that fit under your fingers to supplement your finger strength on the hardest moves - would you be using them or is it aid climbing?
