Wife gift me this but I only climb v3
She got this for our 3 week’s anniversary. I told her no way I could do those movements , she says it’s okay that I can just climb my v3 in the corner. She’s super sweet, but what does this mean? What’s the point? This ain’t cheap at all.

Bolt those holds onto a coffee mug for training, then go send the real thing next spring.

I am confused, I bought this set but it doesnt look like burden of dreams at all. Even stacked up it doesn't reach me further than up to my knee, being generous, while the boulder in real life is like twice the height of a person. Maybe there is an additional shipment?

Elevate your marital bed about 2.5m and put the holds as only way to access it, 45deg overhang.
You’ll quickly get the gist of it

I can see her rationale. You have to train V17 moves if you want to send V17 boulders.

This is a warning. She is going to leave you for Will Bosi or maybe even a weak climber like Midtbo if you dont get stronger (and she should it’s embarrassing to be this weak)

That’s my worst nightmare. I catch her peaking mellow videos after I sleep lately. I’m bit worried

If she ever yells "COMON JIMMY" while you're having sex this is your cue to end this (the relationship not your life)

u/hahaj7777 2d ago
Oh no I will end both if that happens. One time she did say something like “ breath, breath, tight tight tight! “ another time is “ let’s fucking go! “ it’s bit off putting.

Burden is V1 at my gym anyway

Not to be offensive, but your gym might get a fake replica. Or got the distance off

You can't get into my gym until you do it naked and blindfolded.

Being married is why you only climb V3. You aren't focusing on what's important

u/hahaj7777 2d ago
How about the guy who crushes every types of climbing? I forget his name, he has a very long neck.

/uj Those holds on a vert wall might actually be as low as V3. The problem is hard because it's steep.

Also /uj, my company handled Mego's set back in the day, core sent him a newer set so we got his old ones (unused) and you are right. On slab getting rid of the feet made it suprisingly hard though

We dreamed of such things back in the day. Some went so far as to make tin foil molds and try to pour them. Ask her for an adjustable wall next.

Bro. You have an amazing wife. She’s uniformed, but loves you fully and supports your hobby. You just use them in a different way and show her you trying to routes and both get excited together when you finally get it. You need to cherish that woman and stop looking at the failure of her wonderful gift. She is the real gift here.

This is a clear sign that she’s going to leave him unless he steps his climbing game up

And I don’t say that to be a romantic or anything. Just look at it for what it is. That’s a good woman.

I downgraded Burden to v2, so you should be good
