Who were the other "free stance" climbers that expressed this mentality Clink? At pinnacles specifically?
Walton, Holmgren, Bryant, Martin, Norris, Arthur and Cochran(me) were all subscribers to this sect.
To explain why I have continued to "free stance" my answer would be Jack Holmgren's passion for it. He viewed it as a purist-one way style and practiced it as art.
I am afraid that Aaron is convinced that stance climbers get double the virgins in the afterlife. He took to it last year with drive that reminds me of my predecessors.
Catholics and Baptists, or today simmered down to with cream and sugar or black, I feel privileged to be part of the GU Mudncrud climbers.
