On thursday, I went to climb the " #Supercrack of #heidelberg " (by Wolfgang Güllich) with a friend. The #rock, even though similar sandstone according to my limited geology, was so different than in Palatinate, more dense, smooth and tough.
The crack is a handcrack with little crimps or holes, and almost no feet. I ... died. A lot. 3 moves at maximum, then i had to fall and rest. In the end, to retrieve a overcammed friend, I had to prusik 2-3 meters. Well, I learn 😅

Back when I was a #dirtbag climber bum, there were no climbing gyms, so this is a new thing to me.
An interesting cultural quirk that I noticed today: strangers don't seem to chat much with each other, cheer each other on, congratulate each other when someone pulls off a hard bouldering move or whatever.
Those things routinely happen on actual crags. At rock climbing areas, even shy little me can easily strike up conversations with people, but the bouldering part of the gym feels like any other gym where everyone is doing their own private thing. The vibe is more "gym" than "climbing."
It is what it is, I guess, but it feels lonely compared to rocks.
