PCi Pro Clinic

image

Next month, what was once a hope and desire, will come true. Ever since I learned of the organization PCi (Professional Climbers International) I had hoped and requested that they would put on a clinic in my neck of the woods. Well, Midwest Climbing Academy has made it happen.

And its official… I invested my birthday cash and will be learning directly from 3 of the best climbers and trainers in this sport I love. World Cup Boulder Alex Puccio, hometown hero and outdoor ‘rockstar’ Alex Johnson, and hardman all-discipline climber and PCi founder Kevin Jorgeson will be sharing from the wealth of their knowledge.  I opted for the more general, efficiency and effectiveness clinic rather than the more specific competition style clinic.

Look for an update soon to see how it went.

Developments

It has been a little while since I last posted, and I don’t have a ton of time to write any REAL content now.  So, this will just be a quick update post.  What’s been going on recently and what to look forward to.

Recently:
~ I picked up another climbing hold line to review.  Been setting and climbing on them.
~ I picked up a freelance client to design their Homewall.  Design phase is done and it will be built next month.

Look Forward:
~ Keep an eye out for a post next week about an event I am honored to be a part of.  Hint:  it involves climbing, people, and real life
~ Review coming for the above mentioned up-and-coming Climbing Hold company from a Homewall perspective.
~ I’m working on a Beginners Guide.  Its proving to be quite extensive.
~ A video update of how my modified Mangrove Tree is working.
~ Interviews with fellow “Real Climbers”

Thanks for hanging with me.  Please comment below with any topics you would like covered.
