i hope it's okay for me to post here (FTM). this sub just seems so much kinder than the indoor bouldering and climbing subs- they'd get on my ass for posting something that isn't a real send, especially on something of this level. yes i know i held onto that black hold. im not saying i completed this route. please dont bug me about that.

i started taking this video because i thought the push up move was impossible for someone of my height, but i ended up getting it anyway. i just look so damn clumsy. i feel like this is how i always climb, and may be part of the reason im still stuck on most V2s despite having been climbing on and off for over a year.

what am i doing wrong? how do i stop looking like im struggling so hard?

Elevation in Eugene btw

tomodachi life, pokemon, minecraft... nobody hates the games more than their own subreddits, i swear

first picture are my new glasses, second are my new spares, and third are my old ones that i love.

i hate the new ones so badly, but they were my only half decent options among the ones my insurance would partially cover. i feel like these new ones must dont fit my face. i look ugly. the first picture makes me look like im an annoying nerd in a sci-fi movie.

but maybe it's not as bad as i think?

should i use my new ones, my new spares, or stick with my old ones? my old ones are two years old. it's noticable. ive been having trouble seeing anything a certain distance away and they're scratched up... but i actually like the way i look in them.

edit: thanks, yall! i didnt expect to get a bunch of responses so fast. i think im gonna try my new ones for a few days to see if i start to feel better about them, now that i know they arent *that* bad. im my own worst critic lol
