Anyone who implies a distinction between themselves and a 'n00b' is a n00b... not to mention anyone who uses l337-speak in a rock-climbing forum...

n00b: Gym staff who fold their arms, stare me down, and then come over to loudly make me untie my figure 9 because it's 'wicked dangerous'.

Second, I thought that stare down/loud interruption bit was part of the gym staff training. you could fill a thread with stupid things gym staff say.

You gotta love the irony of this (most likely) 19-year-old kid -- whose prodges are all air-conditioned, 45 degree crimp hauls terminating somewhere near the JBLs -- acting as your God and personal John Long in the realm of technical climbing knowledge. And to think, all this because there was a shortage of life guard jobs at the local swimming pool this summer.

I had my revenge weeks later when the climber he was belaying z-clipped & I had to intervene. Glad this guy was in charge of lead tests, too.

Anyone who uses the term Noon is, in fact, most likely a Noon themselves and just trying to make themselves feel better by cutting up other people. Spoken by someone who has cliped their chalkbag to the back of their harness for over 15years and has never had it interfere in a chimney. Seriously, if your chalkbag is your excuse for not being able to chimney you are most definitely a Noob!! RR
