In other PC++ gnus, just got an email from Dave at Wolverine, I guess that I get a free RRG guidebook because of my guidebook-baldspot-gloriez on WTFOK. Woo! Too bad it's only for the northern region, but now I'll know all the quality sekrit nature gullies to go chosshiking in.

Now would be the time to jump on the campus board, but it's just too risky. The worst thing to do would be to fall, and land directly on the bottom of the left foot. Teh gimpfoot is still in an aircast, but I am walking around a bit, and have moved toward doing some actual climbing. Can't do any toeing in with the aircast, since that would put a lot of strain on the Lispaul joint. So, mostly, I am sticking to really steep stuff that I just climb with one foot ('m using the Arrowhead that Jack sent me last year for my right foot). Feeling really good actually. I set several porbelms that suit the one footedness, and I even have a bit of power in me, and can deadpoint, dyno, deep cross over to pretty small holds. Feet cut a lot, but I'm feeling really strong on the crimps and even some slopey pinches. Also getting good at falling onto my back, instead of my feet. The one problem is that, since my feet cut every few moves as I try to reset the right foot, I REALLY get worn out fast. So, volume is suffering. I'm just hoping that will build up my endurance enough that I will feel stronger and better endurance as soon as I can use both feet. May try to re-prodge Apollo Reed this spring, since it has very few hard left foot moves. That would be awesome. Nice! I can't imagine that putting climbing shoes on the gimpfoot will be pleasant for quite some time, so are you planning to climb in approach shoe on the gimpfoot, once the aircast is off, or are you going to try the climbing shoes? And btw, don't forget, there is spring season at the RED, and you have committed to it. Hmm, spring season at the Red... hard to say, Lena, hard to say. I'm not sure how putting climbing shoes on it going to be. I'm optimistic about it after we pull the pins (and count to three?) in early March. I have a few old shoes that are a bit bigger and stiffer that I can start on, and even the Arrowheads are about 1/2 size big for me, so will probably get a great getting-back-into-it boot for the steeps. Feeling cautiously optimistic, though. Probably not gonna be a great Endless Wall season, but I think steep sport will be good. Due to the nature of the injury, I'll probably be doing as much heelhooking as possible with the left. I asked the Doc about climbing, and he clearly did not get how shoes work, since he said that he could give me a metal shank to put inside the shoes for more support. LOL, metal shank for inside of the climbing shoes! Still, may not be so off. Didn't Gail get carbon inserts into her climbing shoes after her toe surgery? Obviously, completely different injury, but... Hmm, I should ask Gail about that. My toes, obviously are ok, but the fact that the joint where the upper foot meets the leg got obliterated is a major variable. And, whenever I curve my toes into the downturned position, they shake and spasm involuntarily. No clue.
yeah, I am thinking that you need more of an ankle-support type thing, like the one I wore after I sprained my ankle a couple of years back?
Something like this, bc it extends over the top of your foot/arch, and offers stability/protection?
http://www.footsmart.com/...pla-adid^23714743447
Those things you can wear inside your shoes, supposedly, and it worked well with just regular shoes, but with the climbing shoes I actually wore this thing on TOP of the climbing shoe.
I think the toe spasming/shaking will go away. I had that after the disc injury, too, and again after the ankle got hurt, but not anymore. That's a large part of why I stayed with my Sirens instead of getting more down-turned shoes though.

I am surprised that they are giving a gnu guidebook to YOU and not to Tristan, but in case they do give one to him, also, I volunteer to keep it for him... until he visits the states again. Only until then. And if by then there is the 5th edition of the guidebook... oh well.
I wonder if banz gets one guidebook for every photo, or just one, period. Maybe I can bum one off of him.

Bacon dates would be good. I like all forms of dates. One of Banz's former muses is a rawr vegan, who I think gets like 50% of her daily calories from dates. She orders them by the flat case. It's always rad staying with her in Chatt, because we can eat ourselves sick on them.

Grading gym routes. Such a fun exercise! We have the setters post up what they think the route is/should be, then go 1-2 letters above and below and have check-boxes next to the grades. After a week, the highest grade is set and that's what the route is graded. Keeps routes appropriately graded. I think that gym routes should go through double-blind peer review processes for grading. Actually, that should go for outside routes, too. It really is the only sensible option. It works really well and you know what you're getting on when you get on it. Maybe works for a large gym, but too much hassle in a gym like ours. Having setters initial and date the climbs they set is as much of an effort as we are able to consistently enforce. For a hard climb, there might not be enough people to give a grade opinion consensus on it for a few weeks. And by then, every person who has any business being on the route has already tried the route and formed his/her own opinion that is not going to change, no matter what everyone else says. besides, what's the worst thing that is going to happen if you attempt to toprope a climb that is too hard? Nothing is hurtzed, other than dignitteh, tendons, and butts.And the cheesetitties?

Got a gnu florescent blue r1 hoody and a pair of hideous (drivel would be proud) board shorts of orange and blue houndstooth. You're starting to sound like someone we know. Be that as it may, I got the R1, the shorts, and a sunshirt for substantially less than the retail of the R1.

camhead wrote: Went to gym last night. The hangboarding is winding up, since I most definitely peaked (at 50 lbs, WOO!) last week. Now would be the time to jump on the campus board, but it's just too risky. The worst thing to do would be to fall, and land directly on the bottom of the left foot. Teh gimpfoot is still in an aircast, but I am walking around a bit, and have moved toward doing some actual climbing. Can't do any toeing in with the aircast, since that would put a lot of strain on the Lispaul joint. So, mostly, I am sticking to really steep stuff that I just climb with one foot ('m using the Arrowhead that Jack sent me last year for my right foot). Feeling really good actually. I set several porbelms that suit the one footedness, and I even have a bit of power in me, and can deadpoint, dyno, deep cross over to pretty small holds. Feet cut a lot, but I'm feeling really strong on the crimps and even some slopey pinches. Also getting good at falling onto my back, instead of my feet. The one problem is that, since my feet cut every few moves as I try to reset the right foot, I REALLY get worn out fast. So, volume is suffering. I'm just hoping that will build up my endurance enough that I will feel stronger and better endurance as soon as I can use both feet. May try to re-prodge Apollo Reed this spring, since it has very few hard left foot moves. That would be awesome.
I found when I had the rod taken out of my leg I was super worn down for the months afterwards....which included the first little bit of rock season.
Nothing I could do about it, I guess my body just needed to take the energy for me to heal.

Yeah, axe arm was a total fail, on top of which it was so heavy I think I may have broken my arm. Not sure how it can be fixed, so my ice season is over. I just paid $250 to go to GOI to drink beer and watch. :/

He want's to see how you get a high-resolution hand-drawn map placed into your thesis...
