I just wanted to take a minute to thank you; you've been a huge inspiration to me, seeing as I'm 5"7, and I sport a -4 index. Isn't that fantastic? Anyway, you have once and for all proven that there is nothing for me to complain about, seeing as you don't let your height get in the way of crushing super hard boulder problems and insane sport climbs all over the world. Also, I'd like to thank you for not being a complete and total douchebag, and not releasing a movie called "Daniel Woods: The Movie" with the tagline "A true story about the greatest climber in the world." Needless to say, it's guys like you that reinforce climbing's reputation; chill, laid back people that enjoy getting outside, having a great time, and getting adrenaline rushes from the crowd at comps. Anyway, thanks again for being such a huge inspiration. I can't tell you how many times I've watched the video of you at the mammut bouldering championships on problem #4, doing that ridiculous one arm lock off, pulling through, and getting the flash. GNAR. It's guys like you, Paul Robinson, and the rest of your crew that I look up to. Not self-centered brats from the czech republic. Hope all is well, and if you're ever in the northwest area (squamish, leavenworth, etc.) let me know. I'd love to chill with you guys and give you a place to crash. Thanks again. Sincerely, Justin Wyse Dear Daniel,

Congratulations on your win at the WC, as always, you put on a spectacular show. I just wanted to take a minute to thank you; you’ve been a huge inspiration to me, seeing as I’m 5″7, and I sport a -4 index. Isn’t that fantastic? Anyway, you have once and for all proven that there is nothing for me to complain about, seeing as you don’t let your height get in the way of crushing super hard boulder problems and insane sport climbs all over the world.

Also, I’d like to thank you for not being a complete and total douchebag, and not releasing a movie called “Daniel Woods: The Movie” with the tagline “A true story about the greatest climber in the world.” Needless to say, it’s guys like you that reinforce climbing’s reputation; chill, laid back people that enjoy getting outside, having a great time, and getting adrenaline rushes from the crowd at comps.

Anyway, thanks again for being such a huge inspiration. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched the video of you at the mammut bouldering championships on problem #4, doing that ridiculous one arm lock off, pulling through, and getting the flash. GNAR. It’s guys like you, Paul Robinson, and the rest of your crew that I look up to. Not self-centered brats from the czech republic.

I'm not dissing him darling so turn off your trash talk, its offensive. Maybe my grammar is confusing your understanding of what I'm saying, I would learn how to spell if my computer had spell check. Fuzz is the destination arrived at after a short stint of waffling on. Ah OK! I get it, to have a valid argument I need 1: Good grammar, I may even be able to get across some drunken yokle abuse like yourself. I can only practise and hope! 2: My fingers to have pulled myself upon a pedestal in peoples mind so i too can look down on the ignorant peasants and blither my majestic nonsense. Dja dig what I'm saying? The credentials you think I must fulfil before I can have my little mouse peep say are so utter and completely whacked, but i appreciate your drivel. So experience is nothing, regardless of people you've heard of? "I haven't heard of this wretch! how can he possibly THINK he can have an idea on this subject compared to Bla McGraw? He who was born of the thighs of coincidental fingers and location?". So I need to learn to spell before i can join the gang who are able to speak. Maybe you need to continue to hone that drunken gypsy tongue and hmmm, you seem to be able to read words but seem so deathly inept at deducing meaning it's comical. Maybe practise that:) Oh the abuse on your blog Daniel, Its terrible, I didn't mean it to be this way:) See you later IT Hey man, I’m not saying his wrong for what his saying, chill out. what he wrote just jumped around and and almost said something a couple of times but didn’t end up…

Reguardless of his status, it is still HIS blog, NOT IVAN DICKBAUMS. Furthermore, you state that you want to add something to the pot and the burden is all on you by any debate standard to prove A, why Daniel is wrong, B. why you are correct, and C why you have any authority over Daniel on this matter (ie. Are you a professional climber??) Nowhere in this post did you meet any of these burdens except for bad grammar. LEARN HOW TO FUCKING SPELL! Before you can make a valid argument, get your verb/noun agreements correct. Until that time, your opinion is rubbish and jiberish. My ad hominem attacks are completely justified. What the fuck is fuzz, and I repeat myself, YOU WIMPY PIG??

I was just saying that with such a BIG deffinate title as "climbing and where it's going" should lead somewhere where it suggests it might, with such a heading, insted of a conveluted journey to the center of fuzz. I don't need child name calling when I myself am trying to add something to the pot. Just putting points out there into the nowwhere mess of the whole subject of climbing progression. "and you obviously didn't understand the point", what was to get? Climbing moves forward...ah ha Short people are short...poor them "Learn how to read you wimpy pig"? Quit burning your hate trail darling and think about learning how to read what your reading, not what your told your reading. Ciao, IT Hey, whats with the animosity ?

I just noticed you never mentioned your Minnesota/Wisconsin trip. I read you had climbed Cain at Willow River, and The Raven at Sandstone. I know Cain is supposed to be chipped, but was it worth doing? Thoughts on the grade? How did you like the rock/area in general? Thanks!

This is Daniel's personal opinion about the future of rock climbing, and you obviously didn't understand the point he was making, which you portrayed through your ignorant post. Learn how to read you wimpy pig. You obviously are not in the professional climbing scene and have no correct perspective on what is going on with pushing standards. Nice analogies douche bag.

I'll be generous with 5'10". I like to think that climbing is all about the personal journey and being honest about how hard something is brings out a diversity of opinions and consensus grows from there. That said, it makes no difference what other people call something. Unless of course it is Jaeger (and not everything is V7). Fyi Voges might be around 6 foot but J Webb is not.
