When is someone going to buck up, put on their man pants and climb something 6th class?

5.15 should be solid 5.15 moves, not 13b/c moves for 100+ feet, that's kinda like long 13's, 100+ feet of 11.b then a crux of 12c/d, it should only be rated to the hardest move possible. Some day someone will develope a route thats 40 feet long at solid 5.15 / V14 moves

Theres a route just like that. Its called Akira, and was done over a decade ago.

Don't tell me this post is still alive! :shock:

mattmax45,
stFu and go climb the s--- then. until you have climbed ANY of the routes you mention, you are talking out of your ass, n'est pas? how can you argue about the difficulty of the moves on Akira, saying they can't be V14 moves, but maybe V12, if you haven't ever seen or touched the s---, let alone pull at that level in the first place? Go do it and then say how illegitimate it is due to (rumored? limited? extensive?) chipping (you could take after Dave Graham, who sprayed about how he ticked 7 5.14's at Mt. Charleston, took the credit, and kissed the asses of some of the areas top climbers, only to turn around and spray to R&I about how much of a pile it is, exaggerating and lying about the state of the place.) Maybe you've pulled relatively hard, but you still can't pretend to even know what V14 is any more than I can. Maybe when you can pull that hard you can go establish your own 35 foot long 5.15 and tell us about the sick holds and how hard all the moves are.

power-endurance is the future and reality. it's what makes climbing hard routes so much more difficult and satisfying (imho) than climbing hard boulder problems. nothing against short routes, but they're just not the ill s---.

ps those who do climb the routes you mention don't waste there time talking about the s--- on the internet... perhaps i'll join that fold.

every post i see by 'dirtineye' is that stupidass 'die thread die'

99% of his posts must be this image

And justifiably so, given the general quality of topics on this site.

isnt this supposed to be about the moron who doesnt think 6th class routes exist not about you two morons b---- at each other ... keep up the good work ignorant climbers

What makes you think I can't climb what I talk about ... You can go FUC- your mother. ... And besides your ASSuming that I haven't seen Akira and the other routes, s--- for all you know I've already climbed them

Iv'e climbed enough at rifle to know I suck at 80 foot 5.11 a jug routes

from another thread:

mmmhhhmmm
:roll:

one only needs power endurance to climb 200+ feet of V9/10, look at the honorable Randy Leavet, 40 Y/O he has a weak wrist from a break, and can still do "5.14d Tusk" 230+ feet long, review the last year or so most of the really high end routes are getting longer and longer, look at Tusk, Flex Luther, La Novena Enmienda all right at 5.15 or higher and more the 120+ feet long, then look at Action Directe what maybe 35, 40 feet tops and still at .14d , one more micro mono and it'd be 5.15 no prob.

if you want a real laugh, check his photos and toprope "sends." :wink:
