Signs you might be a sport climber
« on: May 14, 2009, 08:04:50 AM »
We all know there's a sport climber in all of us. So what signs would indicate you might be a sport climber:
-You used to wear Sporthill tights until they fell apart.
-You'd rather bolt than place gear
-Your draws & rope all match
-Your gym card is on the back of your harness (guilty of that once in a while)
-You say cracks hurt
-You have worn either Ninjas or Bambas
-You have climbed at Smith Rock....Even Owens gorge
I'm not worthy.

whew, that was a close one, had a few too many checked off, but clearly if not all of them are checked that means I don't qualify.

You are having too much fun or too busy just climbing to worry about what category you are in or judge what category other people belong to.
Inch by inch, I will get there.

The only one that applies to me is having climbed at Smith and Owens. One trip to each... Does that even count? And since bouldering isn't sport climbing, I can't be a sport climber...  ;)

yer pushing it though with all the bicycling, clear tendency toward a 'sport'

Well ya'll can't even come close to the sight I saw at Micky's once...

2x Spanish guys climbing in speedos, sans shirts. They were using a skyhook like a fifi to rest on the bolts.

That's sport climbing!

Uber does climb without his shirt from time to time hmmmm.

I got you beat. I was at Mickey's once and some naked hippy asked me to spot him. I declined.
