When 15 climbers meet a strange guru from nowhere, nobody knows what will happen...  

The movie of the event, which took place in Spain (Navalosa), with all the Petzl team...

News - Premier UK bouldering venue perfect for power endurance training.

Which is a relief as getting outside has been tough this year with constant rain from June onwards. Any route fitness I’d gained drained away even faster than my enthusiasm. The news of a training venue for route climbers comes as a bitter blow for the boulderers who have enjoyed pure power problems for a while and don’t see the point in getting pumped.

Hier soir 2 amis, mon frère et moi sommes montés faire une petite
ballade nocture en Chartreuse, histoire de tester la résistance de nos
duvets et de faire quelques photos.

Et bein, on a pas été déçus... Jugez vous même.

6h15, les premières lueurs du jour.

Ok, so theres coming a good one in the near future, when I get back home. This repport of my ongoing trip is not so posh but I still felt I had to do a little update. Anyways...

Not really, but does anything in our sport really make sense? We look for the hardest way up the wall, then try and find the easiest way up it! Link-ups are fun for training, though often make two OK routes into one really good one.

Wet or What!

Yesterday, on the 21st, we arrived in the morning to Trinity Island. We discovered a beautiful landscape. Lots of ice on the Island, glacier running down into the water, dream scenery.

After what seemed like ages, the two weeks after the training camp was finally over !  I couldn't  wait to get to Ushuaia, see everybody again and most importantly - set sail for Antarctica!

Il neige… On sent la glace se rapprocher dangereusement ! Il fait de plus en plus froid… Il paraît qu'on arrive en Antarctique dans 7h de temps ! Whoua … Je ne réalise pas que dans peu de temps, je vais apercevoir ce continent qui m'est si étrange et mystérieux.

J'appréhendais le périple en bateau… mais bonne nouvelle, je n’ai pas le mal de mer, ouf, au contraire j'ai souvent faim et Céleste est la meilleure des cuisinières que je connaisse. Today : hamburgers party ! On est gâté.
