Climber Who Doesn’t Care If You Know About It Climbs New V14 In Connecticut

Posted May 3, 2012 at 2:56 pm · Comments { 11 } ·

Ty Landman has apparently done a project of his out in Connecticut that could be in the V14 range.  Just don’t tell him I posted about it.  Please.  He hates this stuff:

One of the hardest aspects [of climbing] is dealing with the scene, all the talking about climbing and who’s doing what, you know. I hate that stuff. And that’s why I would never climb professionally again, because I don’t enjoy talking about all the climbs I’ve done. That’s why I respect people at the limit of the sport who don’t feel the need to report everything they do.

Nope, 5.14d Still Hasn’t Been Onsighted…But It Won’t Be Long

Posted April 26, 2012 at 5:16 pm · Comments { 7 } ·

There’s been a lot of tongue twisting in the climbing news-osphere about Adam Ondra‘s recent FA of Joe-cita (5.14d) in Oliana, Spain.  While he did climb that specific line on his first try, he had previously climbed a portion of the link-up while climbing other routes.  Granted, he did either onsight or flash the harder parts, but  rules are rules.  He also came close to onsighting Duele la Realidad 2R (5.14d) but had to settle for a 2nd go send.

Get your bets in now for when 5.14d is going to go down first go…
