Rock climbers have spent two decades arguing passionately whether bolts have been a good thing or a bad thing for climbing in general. The short answer is that, in some climbing areas, they've been a good thing; in others, they've been a bad thing. Most leading climbers do both sport and trad - on the bolts and off them.
Sport climbing can be used as 'convenience climbing', 'fun in the sun'. And that's fine by me - there's nothing wrong in that. Or sport climbing can be used to push your grade. Most people pushing their climbing grade will have two grades - an onsight grade (ground-up, no information about the route, no falls) and a worked grade. The worked grade (a redpoint) involves prior knowledge of the route, for example, attempting it on a top-rope, prior to a successful (no falls) lead. The climbing purist in me feels compelled to mention, in passing, the third option - a flashed ascent, where you led the route straight-off, with no falls, but did have some information about it, for example seeing your climbing partner do it. But, for now, let's forget about flashed ascents. However praiseworthy, they're a kind of half-way house.
Even if you're the most die-hard trad climber on the planet, who's never taken a leader fall in their life before, I want you to have two leading grades - an onsight one and a worked (redpoint) one. Why? Because if you just have an onsight grade, it becomes almost impossible to break through a grade ceiling. When you try to climb harder, you fall off, lower down and walk away. You've stopped learning. Actually that's not true. You're learning to fail at your grade ceiling.
The top Yosemite rock climbers of the 1980s, guys like Kauk and Cosgrove, were onsighting to 5.12b (about F7b or E6). These were brilliant climbers who were out on the crags most days. They were supremely fit in mind and body. But they still had a 12b grade ceiling. It was only when they embraced the notion of working routes (previously dismissed in Yosemite as 'hangdogging', i.e. dodgy tactics) that they saw big improvements. They went to 5.14c (F8c) at worked climbing grades and 5.13a (F7c+) at onsight climbing grades. So, even if they'd just wanted to improve their onsighting, they'd have gone up three whole grades. Not bad, eh?
Working routes (in conditions of safety) gives you an appreciation of harder moves, more stern situations. It demystifies what lies just above your onsight grade ceiling. And, very often, mystification is the biggest thing that holds you back in climbing. I can remember doing ascents of Joe Brown routes in the UK when I was the only person I knew going on them. The mental barriers were huge.
So have two personal grades in rock climbing - an onsight grade and a worked grade. Even if you couldn't give a hoot about working routes, per se, as a tactic, it can help your onsight grade to soar. If Yosemite legends can improve their onsighting by three grades, then why can't you and I?
Michael (Mick) Ward has been climbing since 1967. Aged 56, he still climbs at around 5.12 or F7b+. He has made many First Ascents and written for many climbing magazines. He's still aiming to improve.
