What does “popularizing your favorite 5.10 crack” mean?

There are rating systems for the difficulty of a climb.
Usually, the crux move is the rating.

Also, lead climbing or seconding, or maybe top roping.

A guy simply must have some fun.
Very subjective, YMMV!!

Typically, climbing grades do fall into a rudimentary scale of difficulty. A 5.0 to 5.7 is considered easy, 5.8 to 5.10 is considered intermediate, 5.11 to 5.12 is hard, and 5.13 to 5.15 is reserved for a very elite few
