>It's hard to believe that a three grade difference is because the people >attempting the sport routes are better climbers. I think it much more >likely that climbing trad is just dam fcuking hard and placing gear is >not fully respected in the grade. Otherwise people would attempt to do >9b's on gear that, when preplaced would be significantly easier. if theres something that accepts gear, then theres something to grab hold of and yard on. i think finding those super hard trad lines isn't as easy as say a long line of tuffs for 80m across a roof. generally its a style/commitment thing really. proving again its all just a head game
