To hear others speak of this, it seems they should have done this a few years back, but by taking "bouldering" out of the title.
PBC, PBB, doesn't matter to me, isn't going to disrupt the atmosphere and the climbing.

I know. Sounds like a new flavor of sugar-syrup kiddy drink doesn't it?
The BOULDERBLAST! From concentrate. Contains no fruit juice.

Some of those "hard problems" are over 30 feet high...

That is only because they decided to make it more suitable for sport climbers instead of boulderers.

Try Berry Boulder Blast and Cherry Boulder Blast.
