    Throw bag-line accuracy issues

    If my shoes aren't tied tight I throw like crap. I feel like it's an unsteadiness on my base and it throws everything off. Balance, and muscle relaxation. I know this probably sounds strange but it's a thing for me. I feel like I'm slipping and unstable. SO if I throw like shit at the...

    So yesterday's climbs were satisfying. Singled up on Scandere and set a Ropeguide and worked the trees MRS on Kalimba. On the ascent, did some up and down to see how the handling was vs MRS. Tended on ascent just as great as anything I've used. Maybe even better than my Vertek. Descent was...

    more fun with knucklebooms

    @climbhightree I feel like I've seen that set up before. LOL. I personally don't like everything on a single shackle but I suppose being on the ladling is the same thing.

    Closing Thoughts

    Thank you Eric. That was really impactful to me. I really appreciate you taking the time to share so many thoughts. IDK about the first truck. I needed a bigger unit for what I was getting into. I've spent 18 months analyzing it and a good portion of it was a shift inside me. It's a long...

    Today....

    Most days I feel like I do really cool things that are probably regular for most people. I suppose it’s awesome to be simple like that. Mostly I’m thankful to be doing what I’m doing and to be able to return to be a student of my craft. Little personal goals. Small reservations and just...
