A lot of people are questioning the idea of holds growing on The Game. Websites like b3bouldering.com climbingnarc.com and 8a.nu have talked about it. It would be good for you to give your input into what you mean. People find it hard to believe that normal brushing on granite would increase the size of holds. Also have you repeated the climb using Carlo’s Beta?

Hello, Daniel. I’m a communication post graduation student from Brazil and I practice rock climbing as a hobby.

I’m working on my final project. It’s about professional climbers and their blogs. I want to talk about how this sport is somehow different from a lot of other sports on the media aspect. Apart from the competitions, instead of following the climbers wherever they go, the media receive the information from them (pictures, videos, text, etc) and then they publish. They also receive information from the ascents registrations on 8a.nu or other sites like that.

That being said, I would like to ask you some questions about you and your blog, the media, the sponsors, etc.

If you can and want to help me, I can send you the questions by email later. What do you think?

Thanks for reading my message and sorry for my poor English.
Thiago Freire

Only real progression is progression in our consciousness. If that can be achieved through climbing that’s good. If not, climbing doesn’t matter.

Usually climbing is only just one more of activities that tie us to our false I-amness that we developing from achieving something in some area. Even further, because of nature of climbing and development of certain skills we tend to confined ourselves into closed climbing groups on which way we usually loosing the whole diversity and stop development while start degradation.

Climbing should stay what it is “just a play” of human child.

hey daniel I really like the website and you’ve been doing amazing work lately I just have some questions that I’ve been meaning to ask someone like you. so obviously your ridiculously strong and seem to be forever progressing, what type of regiment do you keep in your training. Do you climb in gyms, and when you go to the gym do you just climb or do other cross training things like rings wieghts, or camous board. how important is training to you in building your skill and dextarity. i’m just a young and budding climber looking for the best way to spend my time at the gym. I hope all is well with you thanks.

Well without the sponsors and ADVERTISEMENTS IIa we wouldn’t necessarily be seeing these guys and girls shred it up out on the Rocks. Thanks to the ADVERTISEMENTS the sponsors can sell product and pay for trips for these peeps to explore new places. Any BIG sport has there sponsors and ADVERTISEMENTS. If you buy name brand products then you yourself are contributing to this SICK downfall of climbing by supporting these Devils and there crusade to ruin our sport.
