So while I was reading in the routes database and putting together a hitlist, I noticed that someone logged an ascent of a TR as an onsight. The climb is top rope only. I thought onsight only applied to lead or trad...that toproping was just toproping.

**Please note I'm not trying to call anyone out...I'm just trying to figure out if I'm wrong and you can onsight a TR. Ty.
The terms onsight, flash, redpoint, pinkpoint, and hangdog technically only apply to climbs completed on lead. The terms top rope and second apply to climbs completed on TR. But whatever, who cares. He can call it a "TR onsight" if he wants.
