I like to think my bolts make the lines climbable in a greater variety of conditions, while still leaving the possibility of having the original experience.<br /><br />But I'm not convinced by the argument that you can have that original experience by just choosing not to clip the bolts. I've played that game, whether skipping one bolt on the crux of Paper Chase or all of them on Dawn of the Dead, and I can say the experience would've been different if, leaving the ground, I knew I wouldn't have the option of chickening out.<br /><br />In the end, on Saddam's Insane and Master of Puppets, I like to think I'd have had the courage of my convictions to walk away rather than force some atrocity...Raphael Slawinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16200502342143502080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331032687380506445.post-27695293475680099952017-01-03T10:57:37.517-07:002017-01-03T10:57:37.517-07:00I'd say you did the right thing and bolt those...I'd say you did the right thing and bolt those lines. People can choose to not use them, though if conditions are similar most certainly will. You just opened up more options to do the line. marcusUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12069507883930954081noreply@blogger.com
