WOIT MEETING AH

Once upon a time, there was a meeting. no, no seeds. it began on a wonderful tuesday afternoon, dated aug 23rd @ 1730hrs right on the grey, dusty steps above the climbing gym. there were a bunch of katie browns and chris sharmas from the first years whom we call freshies and some francois legrands(we call them old birds). for the benefit of those who were not present at the meetin, here are some points of the stuffs that were discussed.

1. Safety is of the highest priority
- Before ur climb, check your landing space. and no, SPRC do not and will never employ servants to arrange the crashpads for u, monsieur and mademoiselles, while you are huffing and puffing up the routes. but of course we do it out of concern and cos we do not want to see any broken wrists, ankles and necks. touch wood many many.
- Considering the possibilities of how u may fly off the route, do ask for spotters to ensure u do not fling urself onto the 3mm thick red rubber coated flooring. do not be shy to ask for spotters, resist and u will fly far far. without spotters of course.
- Be proactive. If you spot someone in need of a spotter, go immediately and help. trust me, you dont want to see him fly too far. Protect your brudders and sisters mannn.
- Make this a habit before EVERY CLIMB! climb! climb! climb! (like echo)

2. Cleanliness is simple - repeat after me, cleanliness issssss simple!
- Please do not litter. Its courtesy day everyday in the rockgym. and we will start HANGING culprits by the neck. We're flexible, we let the culprit choose from our many climbing ropes.
- Keep the place neat, do your part. See rubbish on the floor. Do pick it up. Worry not abt the person who left it there. Bad karma. *Nods* like russel peters dad.
- we may ROSTER ppl to take care of the gym. pending further discussion. we love our rockgym. we love our rockgym. we love to clean our rockgym too.

3. Official opening ceremony with Mr Director of SP visiting
Requiring everyones assistance. Be present on the day to help whatever is needed. Event starts from 3 till 5? Footwear is allowed in the gym.

4. Internal Competition and Climaprix
- Discussed comp format - isolation to climbing to review(crying like a baby after competition).
- Comp tactics and strategies
a) Planning of routes - Ensure uv planned as much as u can, before attempting the climb.
b) No of attempts counts - More attempts lower your ranking. and tires you more.
c) Conservation of energy - Refer to the above. Keep attempts to the minimum side.
d) Focus on whats ahead, dont look back - During rest inbetween routes, ignore the prev route. Its time to REBOOT, focus on the next route. Stretch, breathe, drink water.
e) Warming up - do not injure, overstretch or understretch. half hour or less before your turn should be enough time.
f) Mental preparation - not to defeat yourself by "chanting" negative words during isolation.
examples, "wah their muscle big", "die la die la die la" or "i climb only 3 months, they climb over a year already".
- positive examples - "i can do it i can do it", "no expectations", "focus focus focus", "im chris sharma/katie brown today" or "i feel 1000000%(a MILLION percent) today".

5. Climbers feedback (to be updated)

6. Climaprix - 3rd Sept, 0800hrs to 2100hrs
Its gonna take some effort and organisation from the club to ensure this event runs as smooth as possible. We'll need full assistance from every member. Stay tuned for more meetings, updates. More to come. NO, we dont mean "come".

Climb hard, climb smart ppl. -SPRC-
