In reply to jinxxxy:
Haven't read the whole thread jinxxxy:, but the jist of it seems to be your struggle with being a bit shorter than a lot of folk, and routes at most walls therefore seeming much harder than they are graded. I've got a couple of points to make that I hope might be of some help to you.
Firstly, if you can find a much more old fashioned wall to train on more regularly this might help. The sort of walls I'm talking about are one like the Brunel Uni. wall in Uxbridge; this is basically made to resemble 'features' as much as possible and has no bolt-ons on it. I've found it to be of immense value in terms of developing technique, as you decide your own routes much more, especially in making better footwork choices. I actually think the whole 'foot follow' rule on routes is generally unhelpful in the long run, as it discourages using your feet in more creative and diverse ways. I don't know if Brunel would be too far for you to travel, but those of us who use it,love it; check it out if you can and see what you think. Failing that, try using routes that just use the features on your regular walls, i.e. no bolt-ons.
The other point is to keep working on your technique as you will be able to overcome a lack of height (to a very large extent) if your technique is excellent. Have a look at Neil Gresham's Masterclass DVD's about turning into moves to increase your reach; it's quite a revelation (if you don't do it already).
I don't know if you climb outside much, or if it's your intention to (it should be!), but remember that the whole indoor thing is in essence very artificial. As far as I'm concerned it's all 'training' for the crag and when your out on a route you can use whatever you can touch (or reach!)to get you to the top, so your indoor work should be helping to develop this 'choice' of hold practise.Hope I've made some sense and not just rambled.
