Sasha on the news

mediocre wrote:There was a comment about her being a full time student at an Ivy League school. I'm not sayInfo that she's not good at what she does, and I'm not saying that she doesn't deserve respect for climbing. But a full time student in non-fiction creative writing? Give me a break. Let's stop pretending collegiate athletes don't get special treatment, regardless of them being on a football team or a famous climber. Let's stick to what the Huffington article was about, hard sport climbing.

Climbing is not exactly a collegiate sport, I doubt her profs at Columbia care or know who she is. And writing is a serious craft, fiction or non-fiction. At least she's not studying Outdoor ed or exercise physiology as many climbers do...

What's "fucked" is the fact that sport climbing is taking precedent over the more commiting and extreme things being done in climbing. Anyone can pre-clip and pre-rehearse a climb and then climb it on camera. Anyone can learn how to tie a figure 8 and climb bright plastic holds at any level. But please tell me how great she is cause she's a world champion at pulling on small resin holds.

Climbing friend Mesh key,

You will almost certainly never do the climbing 5.14 on the climbing rocks, no matter how much you pre-clip the bolts and pull on brightly colored holds rehearsing every move, even if you live in a van in poverty with bad breath and no girlfriend and climbing almost every day for many many years.

Perhaps you may focus on not being so angered at your inabilities, and instead let the lovings spring forth from your heart. Perhaps you may develop a love for bold, enjoyable flash.

Super crusty and right up my alley! Considering the move now. Cheers

Criticize all you want... Sasha's beautiful... climbs hard... has an infectious smile... she's smart and focused. I don't really need to know anymore.

Dude, what? Abs are totally attractive.

Who gives a fuck if her abs are hot or not?! She is a badass crusher who deserves respect for her accomplishments, not her looks.

Sasha is a VERY talented climber... but god damn does she spew shit. I can think of quite a list of female climbers that could more appropriately represent. Then again I remember how horrible I was in high school...

Spewy spew

So just because she has a acomplished alot, wich we all have recognized, We're not allowed to talk about how she looks?

Wow she accomplished a mean 16 pack....I was commenting on how ripped she is, which could have a reason why shes such a crusher...but I guess im just a creeeeep. Either way she impresses the shit out of me.

I'm just tryinng to derail this thread.

Ha ha, fair enough. Although this thread has already been plenty derailed.

To EeT. I wasn't commenting on your comment. I don't think that was creepy at all. I'm more talking about how everyone is like oh she's hot, or oh she's not....

Why are we so preoccupied with if one of the elite climbers of the day is cute or not. She's putting up killer sends. It's a shame that threads like this about female athletes tend to devolve into commenting on the athletes attractiveness....

This rarely happens to the male athletes. Not saying it doesn't happen, I've seen plenty of women drool over Honnlove, but it's definetly more common towards woman.

That's all i have to say on the subject. Not really looking to get into a big argument. This is the internet after all....
