Have you seen the crazy reusable screamers from the 80s made with Velcro or just looping through rigging plates?

If you’ve never browsed the vertical museum site before you’re in for a treat.
I’ve ended up hunting down one or two random bits of kit I spotted on there..No, haven't seen anything like that...think I've got a nice internet hole to fall into after dinner!

All good points, I’ve never had a snobbish attitude towards it- appreciate its origins and anything that gets people up and enjoying the mountains is a good thing.
I think in my head it would feel somewhere between work(years of trees and a bit of industrial/events access) and sport climbing.
The thought of getting lots of mileage in for fitness does sound like a wise plan. I was woefully unfit for a trad route recently and had a far more enjoyable weekend doing sport routes instead.
