Origins and popularization of the term
Reardonesque became part of the Southern California rock climber’s lexicon in 2006- 2007. It’s origins are from the late Michael Reardon’s (1965- 2007) false claims of world-class rockclimbing free-solos. The term Reardonesque is generally used as a mockery when a bald-face liar makes over-blown claims of personal achievement.
