Cumberland

Yesterday Me, Brion Voges, and Jacob Fellers took a trip out to the cumberland boulders "Pepboys". Main objective was for Brion to snag what i believe is the third of ascent of a hard bloc called Gross's Roof.
Of course Voges delivered in a short 15 min.
This boy be gettin STRONG!

Here's the vid.

A Triple Crowners Advanced Circuit

So me and Voges decided to spend a day at Little Rock City circuiting all the classic advanced problems. We started off with the idea of trying to do 15 problems V7 and above, starting at one end of the field and working our way to the other. We filmed every problem, and i've put together a video for all you triple crowners looking for some beta!

Not bouldering season yet

So this weekend Bvoges, Kasia, Nate and I planned a trip to Boone, Nc to see if the bouldering temps had started up yet.
Needless to say, they hadn't. We arrived friday night, driving up Grandfather mtn through clouds of fog, and a wet road.
We continued down to the bottom of lost cove were we camped for the night.
Saturday ended up being a little better then expected.. Humid and miserable in the morning, and got dryer throughout the day.
We made our way to lost cove early where we just messed around on some classics. Nate did the Patio Arete, and I did a cool boulder called Chapter 13.
After this we dominated Quiznos, and met up with Voges and Joebeth. Then we went to the M1 boulders to find everything basically wet. We warmed up on a cool v5.. i climbed a RAD boulder problem called Instinctual. Which is only doable if your about 6 ft tall. Then me and Voges tried Don Johnson... it was SOAKED!! So we flailed a bit, and called it.

Then we all made the trek to the blowing rock boulders where again.... everything was slightly wet.
Me and Voges beat through some bushes and finally found this problem called Room with a View. He and I both sent.

Due to the wet weather, and the most likely possibility of it raining that night we decided to go on home.
We ate at black cats, and hit Dairy Queen on the for some treats.

Here's a small clip from the trip

Summer time

Nothing too exciting has been going on.. Been skating ALOT, and training ALOT. Been getting very little video of our nightly adventures.. but hope to have a fresh vid up soon!
Also been making weekly trips down to the Concave to try Southern Comfort... Both Brion and I have now one hung the route. Which to most would seem like we're close to the send, right? Well unfortunately this is not the case.. linking the two parts together seems to be a project i may have for a while. More training i suppose.

Here's a clip i threw together of one of our last days in the RMNP.
This one features Brion Voges crushing one of the many v12's he sent this summer.
