Ones for shorty
April 22, 2004, 03:06:43 pm
My good lady has been bouldering now for a couple of years and is getting pretty good. However she be reet short. I've pointed her at all the short friendly probs i can think of, but not being short myself i'm running out of ideas. Any shorties out there with good pygmy friendly probs in the V4-V7 range. Cheers.

 I think someone Fi's height would have to do it footless as toehooks would be out of reach :shock:

don't know why but i find Trackside pretty straightforward, I think it just fits my bodyshape (small and scrawny) - heel in the crack helps and all.

also, anything involving mantles - low centre of gravity and all that!
