Ballerina versus sloth
Aug. 16th, 2016 09:56 pmAfter discovering that they'd reset one of the autobelay lines, I gave up bouldering and spent the evening sending the new routes. I bumped into a friend who said that after the last time we'd been climbing with L&A, A had said to him, "It's amazing how different you and S are. S climbs like a ballerina and you climb like a sloth..." Which is to say: I flag a lot and balance my way up things whereas he uses his huge reach to spring up things the rest of us can't possible hope to get.
