Chouinard, statements such as what he presented shows how far out of touch from the current climbing trend he is. I wouldn't be have surprised to have read "and some of these fangdangled climbers are swinging their hips rather suggestively while climbing.." ala Ed Sullivan style.
I think its mostly because he was a great climber from a very different time (no Gore-Tex, had to engineer much of their gear, no sport climbing, mostly climbing stuff that had never been climbed, etc.).
Chouinard sounds off." Inside, after this hype all we get is a thin one-page interview, in which Yvon makes his provocative comment, but then later admits he got hurt bouldering so it's not too safe after all.
