Some that weren’t mentioned:
Deck - to hit the ground on a lead fall.
Crater - What you create when you deck.
Beach whaling - real poor mantle technique. Usually consists of laying your upper body on the ledge and squirming onto it (the ledge that is).
Waffle or pancake - flattening your body to close the rock on a friction pitch and losing the friction on your shoes.
Pucker factor - fear indicator gauged by the tightness of your asshole.
Bucket - a very lager hold that slopes inward making it very easy to grab.
Run-out - when the distance between your pro placements is very large. If it’s too large on the first pitch you might deck or crater.
Smear - using the friction of your shoes on the rock as a hold. Smear moves on a run-out pitch can cause a high pucker factor.
Flapper - The little flap of skin on your fingers after you suffer from a friction avulsion.
Sink - To put in a piece of pro
PPP or Purely Psychological Pro - Something you sink on a run-out pitch that you know won’t hold you when you fall but looks nice and reduces the pucker factor.
Beta - To get route info from another climber before you do it.
KFC eater - Tourists who come to the climbing areas with large buckets of chicken.
Tourist Baiting - A game you and your fellow climbers play. Whoever can tell the most outrageous lie to a KFC eater about climbing and still is believed is the winner.
Roadrunner - similar to flailing. When your feet are scratching in place cause you can’t find a good foothold but are too scared to stop and smear.
Dyno - launching your entire body in order to grab a hold out of reach. You don’t want to do this on the first, run-out pitch cause you might crater if you miss.
Sandbagging - rating a climb higher or lower than it really is. This is to make you look better or someone else look worse.
Anybody got anymore?
