What is Sport and Trad? 16-Feb-2005 At 9:47:15 PM hangdoggy

for me there is an easy distinction...
trad: always ground up placing your own gear..mainly cams, nuts etc...may have the occasional bolt
sport: either ground up or preplaced is mainly bolts and may have a occasional natural protection placement.

there are always climbs that dont fall into these definitions but as a general rule it works for me.

on a more personal note, i dont mind either sport or trad....but always ground up..i dont see the point in preplacing gear..it removes something integral to my climbing world
