I'm an "intermediate". Do couple of trip at BatuCaves but most of the time in Summit. Hope there's more climbing site (Perak) and artificial walls.

hahahha,
yeah, probably. but i dont climb too often... about once a week. i'd definitely like to spend more time climbing, but i cant find much time.
it's a sad fact - u either work ur ass off, or u dont work. hahaha.
hmm, im kinda curious... heard a lot about "trad" climbing. what's that?

well trad climbing is when u have to place your own protection like nuts, camming devices..etc as u go up a route. Widely practiced here in england because bolting rocks is known to be bad..
In malaysia however, we mainly have sport routes(bolted). This is because we get only limestones and i heard that limestone is not suitable for trad climbing.

Really cool to know there's Malaysian climbers. lol, hell, I've been dreamin about it when I was little and I only started last year. Well, I've climbed @ Summit. Not really a biggie. Now, I'm in Southern Cali and I hope when I go back to Malaysia, I'd get to do some outdoors there...hopefully I get to meet some people who climbs outdoor.
lol...uhh...ya....this is kinda like, off the topic, but oh well
