You are wrong. Your random comment is the most important.

You are not going to fit in at all.

Unless your a chick.

i love this site so far very much...the discouragement is good and it builds strong people

i enjoy capetown when i visited in 2004, to bad i did not go climbing though

if you like a random comment from me is a l’oeuvre on reconnait l’artisan

i will not try to take anyones space, but i am expert climber and i do not like beginner not willing to learn the hard way so fitting here will not be too difficult

if i am male or female i will let you assume this

She will not have any problems fitting in here...Trust me. Although, I doubt she is going to be spending too much time online, as she is typically busy traveling all over the place, looking for people's projects and pissing all over them. I hope I didn't blow your cover now... Shocked ...

Answer my PM !! Also sent you an email...

Name: Joris "Beton" Van Regemortel
Age: 24 M
Location: Antwerp, Belgium, Europe
Indoor and Outdoor

Trad: No - but I'd love to try it sometimes
Sport: Yes
Aid: No - and I'm not really attracted to it

fav. food: Pizza, 'cause I'm lazy

level : 6A (outdoor lead), 6B (indoor sports), 6A (outdoor boulder), 6C (indoor boulder), .. so i guess between 5.9 and 5.10b or something.

gear : Only got basic indoor gear, relying on my partner for the outdoor lead stuff.

random comment: I'm only climbing since July this year, but I'm totally hooked. I'm trying to do as many different kinds of climbing as possible now, .. going outdoor sportsclimbing on some of the only rocks we got in Belgium, going bouldering in Fontainebleau, and doing quite some indoor climbing as well. Obviously the most important thing is that I'm having a lot of fun, but it's so cool to see and feel the personal improvements when it comes to strength and technique.
I've been reading a lot on this site and forum, ... thanks for all the useful (or total random, but funny) information!

Good luck with sport routes in Yosemite. If you want to sport climb you may want to go somewhere else.
