How do you define a climb?
How do you define a successful climb?
Who defines your successful climb?
Do names refer to the rock, a path on the rock, or a specific person's path on the rock?
What happens if I create my own interpretation of the rock?
Should I use the same name as previous ascensionists?
What happens if I start higher?
What happens if I start lower?
What happens if I create my own finish?
What happens if I choose my own path between the start and finish?
What happens if I place a hand on a hold the first ascensionist didn't touch?
What happens if I place a foot on a hold the first ascensionist didn't use?
What happens if I use the holds in a different order than the first ascensionist?
What happens if my body is in a different physical space than first ascensionist?
What happens if my mind is in a different psychological space than first ascensionist?
What is the difference between claiming an ascent among friends, on the web, or posting a video?
