With the improvements in technology and the mass popularity of climbing ... ahem ... anyone wanna buy a quality book ?

http://www.onsight.com.au

... the ' digital re-mastering ' of established climbs should be the latest and greatest debate ... and anyway , isn't tick-marking/chalking holds the same/worse as/than retro-bolting ? ...

Manacube-rz gives a mac-ar-bar example :O

'...Shit. Panic. Fighting the pump, wires won't go in, start overgripping, increasing the pump. If I fall now I'll hit the ground. Now overwhelming panic. Entire body shaking. A small crowd has gathered in shocked silence. Elbows start to rise, I'm coming off. I can feel tears forming in the corners of my eyes and my chest feels like it's being squeezed. I begin to bang my forehead against the rock repeatedly. This is my way of forcing myself to calm down...'
