    Practice makes perfectThis took me 25+ attempts, and I’d fallen on almost every move more than once. #climbing

    #Bouldering vlogIt's not always a success, even if my videos make it seem so Spent half of the session today on this incredibly cool boulder. I'm puzzled for now: should I somehow get out of the heel hook that is blocking me from moving the body to the left? But how? The slopers are pretty bad, especially on this angle. Or just try harder?I'll hopefully figure it out next time. And now I have a pulled neck and holes in the skin from all the jumping and squeezing. #climbing #klettern

    #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
