A new favorite

This Wednesday (today) I went to the Climbing Academy. While it lacked a home-grown feel to it that LCP radiates, it was new, clean, and extremely varied in routs available (with small variation in hold types...most were from the same company and had the same feel between beginner and advanced). Here are a few pics:







Btw...Chris Sharma is giving a lecture there next week or so. I'm not sure I'm up for paying £20 to see him, but it could be entertaining.

Wow, what a colorful pit! Darn jury duty holding me back! I'll analyze the schematics of the holds and gear up for next Wednesday.

Chris Sharma. Hah. Why pay, when there are plenty of other people who will provide totally blitzed ramblings for free?

"I just felt like...like...take off your shoes, for the rock"-a rough paraphrase of Mr. Sharma

i agree with mr. sample. if you want, i can get drunk and tell you about climbing some time and you'll be just as rich for that.
