jad Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 This is not a new stipulation. I had a discussion with Clay last year on this topic. It would be good if Anson made a commitment and made it a yearly competition. If he then for whatever reason failed to keep the competition running it would not affect any records set.Bringing some kind of order into the sport of grip will never make you popular in all quarters. Thanks for the clarification. As far as popularity: I don't always agree with your views but I really appreciate all of the hard work you do for the sport.

anson Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 Jedd and Chris Rice have just joined the fray! Wouldn't it be awesome if Smitty could compete with us too? The man has done so much for our sport, I'd like to see him come down and not worry about contest details and just relax/have fun! SMITTY, SMITTY, SMITTY................

climber511 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Don't you "owe" me one climbing wall event - I seem to remember something about "someday" ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madss Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Don't you "owe" me one climbing wall event - I seem to remember something about "someday" ??? I have been scratching my head over this one. 1. Climb no legs, time to top 2. peg wall with gradually increasing hold thickness. start at 1", 1.5", 2", 2.5", 3" sooner or later you will fall, points for the max peg.

This is going to be one fun contest, I'm looking forward to see all you guys there! Are these videos out there yet? In particular I am wondering about the rolling thunder hang. Any details? In particular, will they be hanging from that swivels like a chain or something, or attached firmly to an unmoveable object? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
