Around the Bay

The past...three time we've been route setting it has gotten better and better. We have been more productive with our setting in terms of getting more doable routes up on the wall. The addition of Craig (CS) and Jen (JA) to the team have helped pushed the routes to flow better than before.

The West Wall. 36 problems from VB to V9

Before this week, I thought I wasn't in as good of bouldering shape I could be in. A trip to Planet Granite in the City changed that. The bouldering on the ramp is incredibly good. Albeit indoors, it provided a good way to end my weekend and get a psyche back for bouldering (after Ironworks decimated that psyche on Friday). Cyril also showed up. It's good climbing with that guy. He's strong, and always does sequences way different than anyone else I have seen. It's nuts. Sometimes, his beta works for others. But 95% of the time, you're F'ed if you try it.

Didn't know I made it the Touchstone news feed on their write up about the TBS7 at Oakland.
Thanks to who ever took the photo!

SInce the last time

Besides the constant of climbing, not a lot has been happening in my life. I am stoked though. There is no doubt. Setting boulder problems has taken a new turn for me (a good turn). I just want to set somethings that people will enjoy. And try not to replicate what has been done since doing that didn't really work out. Live and learn I suppose.

I don't have a lot of outside updates. I haven't been outside in 2 months. Blowing it. But I will be outside later this month for sure in new areas (for me).

Here's a photo dump.

Feeling sluggish?

Beer is good. Free beer is best.

Sorry Morgan, I thought you were ready. At least Gregor was.

I will not stand in line at BART
