Published on Feb 9, 2013 Sean McColl showing some campus board training exercises. Lats - 22cm (8.66) inches apart - 1cm width - rounded edges http://seanmccoll.com for more info on Sean. Timing: Run a continuous stopwatch and start a new exercise every 2 minutes. It should take roughly 30 seconds to complete an exercise which gives you 90 seconds rest. With exercises that are mirrored, I still take a 90 second rest in between to maximize my output. A typical campus board workout for me looks like the following: Up by 1's - rest Up by 1's - rest Up by 2's - rest Up by 2's - rest Big dynamic moves - rest Big dynamic moves - rest Bumping left hand - rest Bumping right hand - rest Bumping left hand - rest Bumping right hand - rest Double up by 1's - rest Double up by 2's - rest Offset double up by 1's (left hand high) - rest Offset double up by 1's (right hand high) - rest Offset by 2, alternating hands (last exercise) - finished REST 20 MINUTES Repeat.

Hoyamoros, La dehesa, Candelario, Salamanca, blocando con Cádiz y acompañados por Cuco, local de la zona y responsable de la apertura de la mayoría de los bloques de alrededor, y con el apoyo de Manu y algún que otro coleguilla mas que se portaron de lujo! Hoyamoros es uno de los parajes mas reconocidos del momento dentro del bloque nacional, entorno idílico y condiciones óptimas en verano para la práctica de nuestro exigente deporte, el boulder! Tan solo 4 días que se hicieron como 2, pero disfrutados como 10! espero que la próxima dure mas y alcanzemos los objetivos deseados! Conciencia, empeño y dedicación es lo que diferencia a las personas mas involucradas con el deporte, y con el, sin duda, modo de vida que es la escalada! que sigan apareciendo sectores, y que siga habiendo titanes motivados para abrirlos!

Echoes . Outside is hot and sticky from MOUNTAIN EQUIPMENT on Vimeo.
WARNING - contains strong language!
'Why Echoes, it's a good question... It came from one of my first essays, also called echoes. This essay was an echo into my past life, a reverberation to and from the life I had made for myself. [...]
Echoes of a parallel life, of the life we were expected, or trained to live, but there, just on the periphery, just out of reach, is another life – a life – a much better life – the life we all hope to live, but not many do ... It's there, just there – bouncing, echoing around in everyone's head, but it is just that, an echo, a parallel never to be reached or experienced...'

try harder... - A Rocklands Journey from Ben Norman on Vimeo.
I had the opportunity to spend 3 weeks in the climbing paradise of Rocklands, South Africa, during the August this year. This is a video I put together about my Rocklands Journey. I hope I've managed to convey some sort of idea of how spectacular both the environment and the climbing really are and I would urge anyone to go if you have the chance!
BD athlete Daniel Jung on INGA (9a) at Gorges du Loop, France from Black Diamond Equipment on Vimeo.
Black Diamond athlete Daniel Jung spent some time in southern France last year and recently sent us the following report and video of his redpoint of INGA (9a), a combo route that starts with a boulder problem and finishes with roped climbing.
=====================================================================================
I went climbing in the Loup Gorge in southern France towards the end of September. Gorges du Loup means steep walls, sintered rock, but unfortunately chipped holds too. In the Deverse sector there are not too many natural routes. Those few that aren't chipped, however, are super cool!
I liked INGA a lot. It is unchipped and probably the steepest route in the sector. It was first climbed by Dai Koyamada and repeated by Enzo Oddo. The first half of the route runs underneath a roof that is protected with crash pads. After that, you exit via a short route called 7pm J.P. Show (8c). The boulder problem roof can be climbed by itself too—it's supposed to be about 8B. Before I get into linking an 8c after an 8B boulder, I had to be certain first that I could be certain to do the 8c exit.
I could free 7pm on my fifth attempt—things were going well! I did not find 7pm particularly hard for an 8c ... But in the end, the last ten moves on sloping holds were to be the crux of the whole of INGA after all.
After a lot of guesswork about hook placements to keep my rear end on the wall, I solved the roof boulder. But I still wasn't overly optimistic. Heat waves, cuts, or calm winds could make the climb impossible yet. But fortunately everything worked out and I could climb the roof boulder for the first time. That was a very suspenseful affair! I ended up falling off the last hard moves before the anchor... I was too excited.
After a long break I made another attempt. Just for practice, because the route would not be in the shade for long and the sun was on its way. The boulder went really well again and I was just below the last slopers below the anchor—and the sun was there too! But it all worked out well and I could get to the anchor before the sun. So INGA had been freed earlier than expected and I was once again ecstatic!
The story of 7pm is very interesting. The line was bolted by a Mr. J.P.. with the intention to chip a 7b route. Fortunately he was scooped by Alex Franko who could climb the natural line free. 7pm J.P. Show is the only natural 8c line in the sector... so folks, don't go chipping holds ;-)
Talk to you soon!
Daniel
