TC sounds like someone who does stuff like climb cliffs. Bouldering is a bit different. And they use a different rating system, IIRC. I boulder sometimes, but mostly for training purposes. I can boulder about a V4-V5 level on my good days. --- Hanananananana! This country's yours and mine. It's the home of the brave and the free.
