Alright, I’m in.   The key is economy of effort. Don’t leave an area of the tree you’re working on till you’re sure you’ve completed it and don’t have to go back, be methodical.

Rich Rule makes some very good points about advances in tech.   Us old gits spent years thrutching up on Prussiks and Blakes, sometimes in mid air. One handing O2O’s, then humping tons

Started at 18 and now 40 and looking forward to getting to 55 and still climbing. 

 

I work for myself so can choose the work load and how jobs are done so I don't spead the weekend recovering. 

 

I dont think I would want to work at this age for a company as a climber full time as to much is expected of you.
