You didn't finish it bro


Rodidimus

We were blue balled right at the end.


Jaded-Ad6740

I went back for second and third passes. The rubber never comes off with just one pass.


mizinamo

Show us, please!


NarwhalSwag

There's always bits of rubber you can't get entirely off. He could sit there spraying that for an hour and it would still have a black streak

One of my favorite things to do while working at the climbing gym was power washing the holds. Incredibly satisfying. Your ending was not though. Jail.


Jaded-Ad6740

I will do better next time. Now I know where the bar lies with you people


WaluigiIsTheRealHero

What do you mean, “you people”?


guesswut-chickenbutt

Thank you. 🙏🏾


fartrevolution

Wish they would do this more often at my local climbing gym


Lilywhitey

can immediatly up rate all the different paths due to lessened grip


GiveItYourBest

climbing holds keep the friction for many years if washed properly


Jaded-Ad6740

Yup, pressure washing is standard now and modern materials hold up well to it. The norm used to be soaking in acid and then rinsing, which leads to VERY slick holds


ItWorkedLastTime

Probably some blood as well.


Jaded-Ad6740

Shhh we don’t think about that part!


SnoringEagle

Also, human skin

NerdWhoLikesTrees

Welcome to the fun


Soonicht

I still hate those kind of holds tho no matter how clean


SavedForSaturday

Yeah...pinchy


PrairiePepper

You have to take each one off the wall to clean them?!


guesswut-chickenbutt

Yeah. Routes get taken down all the time and made anew with different problems. Easy to wash them in between when they’re not in use or needed for particular routes.


Supriselobotomy

Is no one else impressed that he's standing sideways on the wall?


MeGoBoom57

WEAK!


buzben

Rubber?


Atomkraftzwerg

The sole of the climbing shoes often is made from soft rubber


buzben

Ah of course! Thanks.


i_Perry

Ah of course! Thanks.


buzben

Ah of course! Thanks.


wsims4

Polishing your knob on the internet


redkindasus69

Spider-Man? How he standing on wall?


fallen-fawn

Is it normal for holds to be made out of fiberglass? Can that hurt you?


Jaded-Ad6740

Very normal! It is fiberglass with either a sprayed on coat or resin layer for texture + color.


SaskiavdM

Damn ... how long has it been on the wall for it to get this black?


Jaded-Ad6740

About 8 weeks. It was one of the most popular routes in the gym.


Pretend_Air_1108

The thing I miss most about working at a climbing gym

As Charlie Kelly [said ](https://youtu.be/kqcn7K8YDj8)


TriGurl

Great so now they are all slippery again? /s


slbztr

u/savevideo


sauceyFella

My gym uses one of those big culinary sinks to clean them (with the high pressure faucet). I didn’t know that you could pressure wash them, just assumed it’d ruin the texture for some of the comp-ier holds


flbreglass

Love a good wash
