Climbing thread
I noticed there are some climbers lurking here, so how about an everything climbing thread.

I got Tension Board holds a month ago, and even the easiest routes are still kicking my ass:

That concept seems DIYable. Where do you plan on using the draws - does Iowa have lots of climbing or farther away? I've only been to Pictured Rocks there. |

That looks nice but it's going to be in my friends oversize garage (rental property) so it can't be anchored to the cement or wall and needs to be free standing.

Are you talking about the winch seen at 12:08 here: ? If so, then yeah, that'll be useful for adjusting angle. You could do without by using chains at the bottom and clipping into particular link after manually changing angle (which would almost certainly require 2 people), but why complicate life - those manual winches are cheap - 1 ton winch on amazon is $45.

This is what ur free standing unit ended up as (not shown are the chains for added security).
This is before any paint or setting many holds but shows both a 30 deg and 45 deg option.

Which reminds me - climbing Eye of Odin at Flatanger is an absurd dream of mine. |

Heading to Horseshoe in Arkansas this weekend for some climbing fun. Hoping for good weather! I'll post some pics when I get back.

With the quarantine I've been stuck just doing home training and hitting my friends home bouldering wall a few times a week. We've headed up to Austin to do some lead but with everyone hitting Greenbelt so hard all the routes are pretty glassed up.
Typical Friday night, wings and some bouldering topped off with some brews although a pre-bouldering beer may or may not have happened before. |

7 more weeks of training before getting back on this little beauty:
Hopefully will be ready this time (got schooled by that route 3 years ago). |
