It was hilarious in hindsight but awkward in the moment. i sure don't wanna go back.

How do you frick up a figure 8 follow through so badly that you accidentally punch someone in the face?
taking a video of this is actually embarassing, what is that an indoor 5.7 on autobelay? you were really working up a sweat and had to take your shirt off too? jesus christ
what a fricking embarrassing c**t
wah wah
cope and seethe. the building was empty and it was close to 100 degrees. bunch of children
i do work legs now, but they're very behind because i stopped for awhile. i struggle to lift heavy without compromising form due to disc bulges. happy to listen to any advice for that
I was too harsh, I'm a beginner too but that's not bad for your first belay run. My gym has everything marked way too high for beginners so I've gotten used to trying things over my level and probably making a fool of myself. But that's how we learn.

All good brother. I'm not trippin over something like that. I've still alot to learn and i have no doubt all of you guys are definitely better than me at this.
Only one coping is you homosexual. You being shirtless is embarrassing and everyone their is either uncomfortable from it or laughing at you

seriously this video is fricking embarassing to post here
you shouldn't be allowed to go shirtless in a climbing gym unless you're bouldering at like V9+ and are one of the best climbers in the gym
I am. I even climb an outside crag semi regularly. It's fun, but my joints fricking hurt like shit the day after a good sesh so it makes weight lifting in addition to climbing kind of tough (I still do both though)
Out of probably any sports I've done, climbers have been the most pretentious

Just don't grab it okay?!"
Is it really that bad? Couldn't you just ignore the losers and not hang out with them? That's what I do at the gym. I listen to music and ignore 99% of people who are usually buttholes.
>climbers have been the most pretentious
Its true, they are also massive pieces of shit. Ive known this since I was 6 years old and went to a climbing gym for a classmates birthday party. >drank some fizzy drink while still wearing harness >skelly soiboi 'instructor' in his early 30s literally screaming at me "YOU CANT DRINK WHILE WEARING A HARNESS IF YOU SPILL COLA ON IT THE HARNESS WILL DEGRADE AND CANT BE USED ANYMORE WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU IDIOT YOURE NOT CLIMBING ANYMORE GET THE HARNESS OFF GIVE IT TO ME YOURE NOT CLIMBING ANYMORE"
I wish I could find his 50 something year old ass and give him a beatdown.
Some people do such fricked up moronic shit to kids, like not illegal stuff or anything but punishing them for showing creativity or whatever. I guess looking back people like this were my first encounters with npc's
I live in a liberal city so the climbing gym near me is all they/them women with purple hair and polyamorous tech dweebs. There's like one Mexican guy who's cool but honestly man the juice isn't worth the squeeze
I made more progress on my body/physique by lifting weights for like 6 months than I did in 12 years of climbing. I actually didn't even need to work out I would just show up and boulder for 4-5 hours and I capped out at V8, never did top roping ever, I think I got to 5.11a just because of the bouldering.
Congrats Anon u discovered that physical activity designed to make you look better makes you look better faster than an activity designed to make you climb a wall

Hilariously

Because I'd rather be athletic.
V5 gumby reporting in
I am, I climb v6.
But I do climb. Just started and already can do v8. v9 absolutely stumps me however.
your gym is grade inflated
Someone recently died free climbing where I live. Fricking moron LOL
Ah, the beauty of nature... just me, a dozen friends dressed like clowns, electronic devices, and twenty foam mattresses
I am
Wtf anon, details
i am, im just bad at it
Stop skipping leg day
wah wah

You didn't refute not working on legs anon refute it

Wear shorts then? Please tell me you made it farther than the video shows, because it looks like you struggled with the easiest part.
yeah, this was my first time on belay. Im no better than a v4-v5 climber and this was somewhere inbetween that.
buddy gets the nights there to himself so he was helping me learn

It's very brave of you to post this while your vegana is weeping
wow dude great come back. get good at climbing before you post in my thread again.
seriously this video is fricking embarassing to post here

what a fricking embarrassing c**t
get your hips closer to the wall, you need to work on turning in more 🙂 good luck
thanks man. im extremely new to climbing and ive noticed my hips are never close enough. will do

Frick climbing, I'm not a monkey and have feet
Had me til the last two lines. If you want to climb on any color you want just use a spray wall buddeh
Climbers are sounding like huge douchebags ITT

You can't ignore people when climbing, because you need someone to hold your cables who will get bored and start shittalking
bouldering is a bit better, but will attract similar kinds of ape minds
The people at my gym are cool, the people online are terrible. Just look at this thread.

But I do climb your mom every night
americans are fascinating

fricking rankings?
lmao just fricking climb
The only thing I climb are stairs on all fours.

Very nice juice metaphor anon, I like it
I'm the tallest object in my vicinity. Nothing higher that I can climb.
I don't like heights, I can get vertigo when I'm in a sketchy spot and end up like a cat stuck in a tree
I am though.
