Over the weekend I went clinging with a buddy for the first time(together). While I was applying chalk several times I’d take out the chalk ball/pouch inside the chalk bag and use to rub my hands all over it and to apply it between my thumbs and pointer finger gap. After a couple times of him seeing me do that he said it in a complaining/corrective manner to not take out the chalk ball as if it was part of the climbing etiquette to not do so or something.

My question is: is it rude,dirty or one of those things you don’t do with chalk?

The reason I did is because it was literally just easier to apply it on my hands lol.
