I know that personally I couldnt give a tiny rat babys ass what you get up to on a sport climb, top rope it naked with a strap on attached to your forehead whilst reciting the sonnets of shakespeare for all I care.

I would have thought that was pretty obvious.

Ah, that's what the third tickbox in Rockfax guides is for. 

First box - Onsight
second box - redpoint
third box - top rope it naked with a strap on attached to your forehead whilst reciting the sonnets of shakespeare

Jaspersharpe: are you for real?

Fraid so.

What's to stop you doing the downclimb, untying, going to the pub, going for a kip, coming back the next day, warming up and then redpointing the route - would this still be legitiamte in your eyes?

pretty dodgy but i'd let you have that, as you've still had to do the 2 things in a row without falling off each one..

For God's sake.

This is fuckin unbelievable, did you guys take a wrong turn form Cocktalk?

Fatboy's got it down.

I started writing a sonnet about redpointing about half an hour ago... I have now stopped. I'm not sure if I will start again.

Did you down-climb it? If so you can go back and flash it later.

But only if you have a "Cocktalk"tm branded strap on attached to your head.

So of I had a 50 foot stick, is it OK to clip the lower off and then carry on?  Is this acceptable for the redpoint?  Awaits more excellent comments on ethics

Is it really too much to ask for people to indicate NSFW material?

Shit. Sorry. You are quite right. 
This topic had addled my ethics and I forgot where I was.
Genuinely sorry dropping you in any shit

no. i chipped my way up its rather impenetrable form. got to a ledge after about 4 lines, kind of lost interest, smacked a fucking huge piton in and then lowered off.

[Houdini]

Jaspersharpe: are you for real? you'd leave it clipped and claim the ascent?
P.S. In the same style, yes i do think Robin Barker cheated doing this with the cams on Marbellous.

I think it unfair that Herr Popp puntered you twice for this.  Neither were disgraceful disses, just opinion.  I shall return your karma abarro81.

Fucking hell don't drag this load of bollocks up again. 

[cowboyhat]

I'm glad he has - I just saw Lagers link. Good work.

[Houdini]

Ha ha!  Yeah I missed that too.

Hurrah for me!
