Update

The weather continues to be poor. It’s been difficult finding anywhere dry to climb, which is rare for this time of year. This is the snowiest Colorado winter in my memory. Saturday, we went to Newlin Creek, but everything was totally wet. Sunday, I did a nice problem near the Primo Wall in Clear Creek Canyon called Recession Proof V9. Recession Proof is about 100yds downstream from the Nomad Cave along the riverbed. The problem is fairly low, but the good rock and fun moves make up for it.

Here is Joe Varela on the first ascent.

I have also returned to training with Athletik Specifik. Most of the training revolves around maximal efforts on the System Board and the campus board. I am really hoping to progress this summer and I firmly believe that working with Athletik Specifik will get me there. As I get more involved with training I will be posting more about what we do there. It’s awesome to see these guys in Movement, where I am almost everyday setting new routes and boulders.

    Athletik Specifik? What’s that all about Jamie?

    It’s a great training program. We do work on the systems wall, one arm pull ups, and difficult campusing. One of the most interesting components is they use a program called Dartfish, which overlays video, so you can compare attempts on the same move. It’s really awesome.
