How to turn back the clock?..... 27-Apr-2017 At 9:08:19 AM gfdonc

John, you really know what the answer is. It's about the Shoes! The Shoes!

Hard climbers know they only tick hard when wearing tight shoes. That nagging pain is the incentive to jump on, climb quickly and then tick it so they can sit down, rip the shoes off and rub those sore tootsies asap! The extra adrenaline from a bit of compression agony will make all the difference!

Your tactical mistake was getting those 'comfy' size 44 TC pros a couple of years ago. Ya may as well be climbing in your lounge slippers. (I'm sure you have at least one pair). And who is that Tommy Caldwell anyway? Some washed-up has-been designing flat shoes for aging climbers who are only three day's growth away from being a beard stroker.

You now know what your path forward is. Straight to General James at Bogong Command. La Sportiva Solutions SAH! Size forty-two-point-five SAH!
