    Mitte November habe ich mir eine DIY Halterung für Hangboard Training gebaut. Heute sehe ich im Sponsoring vom neuesten Mike Boyd Video, dass Frictitious Climbing jetzt ein neues, ähnliches Produkt im Portfolio hat. Preis Unterschied? ca. 47€ + Hangboard gegenüber 190€ Meins ist halt nicht so poliert aber funktional. Mid November, I built a DIY mount for hangboard training. Today, I saw in the sponsoring of the latest Mike Boyd video, that Frictitious Climbing is now offering something new and similar. Price difference? Ca. 47€ + hangboard vs. 190€ Mine isn't as polished but functional. #MikeBoyd Video Link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSKtShZKeWY Fricitious Climbing Link https://frictitiousclimbing.com/products/doormount-pro?variant=40774805815331&utm_campaign=MikeBoyd_December_25 #klettern #climbing #Bouldern #bouldering #training #hangboard #DIY

    Squirrel on a Tree — A curious gray squirrel pauses on a tree trunk, appearing to survey its surroundings. These agile rodents, known as Eastern Gray Squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis), are common throughout the southeastern United States. The squirrel's sharp claws provide a secure grip as it explores its arboreal habitat.#Climbing #Exploring #Tree #Bark #Claws #Curious #Squirrel #EasternGraySquirrel #SciurusCarolinensis #SoutheasternUnitedStates

    Klimmen met Parkinson"Als je Parkinson hebt, dan is beweging essentieel. Uit onderzoek blijkt dat Sportklimmen daarin een verrassend krachtig hulpmiddel is. Het bevordert balans, spierkracht en zelfvertrouwen. Wanneer je voor het eerst een klimhal binnenloopt en eens rondkijkt is dat best intimiderend. Zeker wanneer je Parkinson hebt. In landen waar klimmen populair is zoals Zwitserland, Oostenrijk en de Verenigde Staten, zijn al meer dan 30 klimgroepen specifiek voor mensen met Parkinson. In Nederland is Stichting parKLIMson gestart met groepen in de klimhallen van Neoliet in Eindhoven en Heerlen. De ambitie is dit uit te rollen in heel Nederland.Klimmen daagt je uit op evenwicht, balans, snelheid, hand-oogcoördinatie en planning. Je maakt grote bewegingen en de groep helpt je door aan te moedigen tot je de top bereikt.Onderzoek toont aan dat sportklimmen de voortgang van de ziekte vertraagt. Binnen de klimgroepen van parKLIMson ontdekken mensen met Parkinson op een veilige en gezellige manier de voordelen van sportklimmen. Ervaring met klimmen is niet nodig! Sportklimmen is een veelbelovende en motiverende vorm van lichaamsbeweging voor mensen met Parkinson!"https://www.parklimson.nl/#Parkinson #Parklimson #Climbing

    Giornata di arrampicata stupenda, ieri a Sperlonga. Lontano dalla folla, abbiamo scelto una via lunga di cinque tiri su una roccia magnifica. Dobbiamo ricordarci di portare attrezzi per pulire la via dalla vegetazione, la prossima volta. Soprattutto alcune pianticelle con piccoli spini decisamente scomodi se poi devi usare le dita per infilarle in buchi e fessure.Temperature da bagno.#climbing #freedom

    I made myself a very simple rope bag for #climbingI kind of yolo’ed the design using scraps and leftovers. It’s made from only two, rectangular pieces of fabric. A lightweight ripstop nylon makes an inner bag, and a heavy backpack fabric wraps around to protect the lightweight inner bag during transport. The white belts are sewn as webbing so it can be attached to other bags for carrying, though right now I just put a piece of ribbon on as a handle.#sewing

    The fifth climbing stop of the road trip: a week in Tahoe, mostly spent on the East shore. Also my first outdoor 6! #bouldering #climbing #tahoe

    #makeShitMonday, #climbing edition...@mbroome and I haven't been climbing as much this year, partly due to schedules, partly my shoulder recovery. But we got out to Pilot Mountain last Sunday with a bunch of friends, and that reminded me that I've been meaning to replace my various tied cords - prusiks and foot loop for emergency rope ascent, spare footloop that doubles as my chalkbag belt, and autoblock for rappel backup - since they're all well over a decade old by now. They all *look* fine, but cord is cheap and nylon degrades over time, so...He picked up some cord for us back in October, so we dug out the hot knife, set up a fan in the garage, and got to work. I had to go in for a respirator mask almost immediately - something about burning plastic gives me an instant headache - but we got them all cut to length and re-tied pretty quickly. Not quite the same diameters as the original cord, but I gave the autoblock a test drive on Thursday and it worked just fine! @cannibal #rockclimbing #DIY
