They got it right actually, supernova is only about 30ft, super short lead route, shorter than a lot of highball boulders out there. Which explains why he tried to solo it. I don't think many people are trying to solo long single pitch

There are some good videos[1] going through the mindset of setters as they set problems that I feel explains the concept super well. Also, another crossover between technology and climbing that has been doing the rounds recently is this rea

I really like the rating idea, any idea if people just rate the setters they like really well? I go to a smallish gym and all the regulars know all the setters so this probably wouldn't work for us.

Do you eat breakfast? If so, how much? Do you then not eat lunch into 12-1 o'clock? It may have to do with diet as well as sleep. I find eating snacks throughout that time, and drinking a decent amount of water helps keep me in that zo

I honestly don't know. I don't see it as being that far fetched to have a single plane that can do what 2-3 30 yr-old planes were made to do, but again I don't know anything. It's probably just me being crazy but I feel
