Lessons Learned

Today while climbing at the gym I learned a very valuable lesson; When the setters give you bad holds, dyno the bomber sloper! Ok, ok I know that many people are going to jump on me for saying that. Normally you shouldn't skirt the problem, and confront is straight on. But, in competition situations its always good to have some tricks in your bag. Problems don't always have to be solved the way that setters had in mind. Everyone climbs in their own unique style and thus should approach each problem in their own way, armed with their best sending weapon. If you like to dyno, and see a gnar opportunity to do so and bypass half of the problem, just do it! Not going to lie, I'm pretty psyched on this send.
