Climbing and Emo Pansies

[islenskr]

Yesterday started out with the very firm grip of Teh Tired, but ended with silliness, laughter, cake and noodly arms

Vibram five fingers sort of almost work for climbing - but not really. I used them a handful of times, but until I discussed them with a climbing instructor, didn't realize that they were why I was climbing so badly, like 2 grades below my usual. When you put a big toe on a teeny foothold wearing the VFFs, you're not getting help from the rest of your foot. It's better than nothing and if you're REALLY tight on money, it's a possibility, but you'll progress much faster in climbing with proper shoes.

Congrats on finding a gym near you - I find no matter how excited I am by a sport, convenience trumps all.
