I've been bouldering indoors for the last 2 years. For background, I can consistently onsite V4 routes. Lately, I've been heading outdoors to get on some real rock, expecting to be able to climb similarly graded routes. Problem is, I can't even onsite a V1 outdoors and V2 is a project! It's not that i run out of strength, I just have trouble finding holds/staying on the wall. I'm starting to question the validity / softness of indoor ratings (the crimps on some of the V0's outside blow away most V4's I've done in the gym). So my questions are: Have you found indoor grades to be softer than outdoor grades? Or is it just that outdoor climbing is a completely different game altogether. Finding foot and hand holds outside is difficult in itself. If this is a normal noob thing, any tips for transitioning to outdoors? Thanks!
