That's priceless, coming from Wendy, Queen of The Self-Right. When someone rocks your little world by challenging you Wendy, it doesn't make then self-righteous.
As for her point about the 'massive discrepancy' - there isn't a massive discrepancy. Wendy compared her highest grade in her preferred style (projecting the shit out of something for weeks on pre-placed gear), vs my friend's highest on-sight grades. If you compare the same style, there's only a difference of a few grades. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Sol on-sighted Kachoong or Auto De Fe.
There's a large difference in the bouldering grades though because they're good boulderers, and they spend a lot of time bouldering. They've only been doing it for five or so years vs Wendy's 20, but they've been doing it frequently.
My friends don't need me to stick up for them, but it's annoying when some forum princess dis-es their climbing. |
