Negative Ape Index is GOOD?????

Jens gave a few reasons why Adam Ondra is such a good climber, one of it is as follows:

"Short arms - Adam is 181 cm but he has a negative ape-index that makes it easier for him to bend his arms"

Hmmm, let's agree to disagree.....

How Top Ryu Players Fight

I was analyzing how the best Ryu players play Ryu. My subjects are namely Daigo (the legend) and Poongko (Best in Korea)

Daigo
Fireball intensive, doesnt seem to care who his opponent is, he just fires away. With good spacing, he uses his fireball to pin his opponent down. Very old school. Likes to use Forward + MP. In the middle of the match, he will go into "Slamming mode" where he will turn nasty and slam the opponent like nobody's business.

Poongko
Focus Attack (FA) intensive, he likes to use FA to begin his offensive. Very often this will confuse his opponent because FA if well timed opens up many options to him.
Doesnt use Forward + MP a whole lot. Think he rather slam the opponent.

Been working my madcatz pretty hard the past week. I wonder if i am ready to challenge/compete......

Nice Route

I would say a nice route is a route that challenges all 3 aspects of climbing performance: Physical Ability, Technique and Mental (balls). Have you met such a route lately?
