Brilliant!!
In reply to: ....Anyway, a few days ago, pumped with adrenaline from the Honnold video, I decided to attempt my first outdoor boulder problem- with NO crash pad, and NO spotter. What a thrill! I attempted a local problem with a grade of V1, however, I added a sit-start variation which I believe may bring it up to V3. Not sure who I talk to about adding my variation to the guide book, but either way, it was incredible.....
Thank you dude, that whole site is a nice change up pitch. Taken in small doses of course. LOL

I'm not so clear on that "good" parody/"bad" parody distinction mentioned earlier, but this photo is absolutely hilarious.

Yup, helps that it's conceptually similar to the quadralette: one man's serious proposal is another man's joke.

Half of me want's to believe that it's brilliant parody since it's rare to be done so well. Half of me want's to believe that it's not a joke and totally serious, just to watch the ensuing slag-fest.
