Texas comp

[Tom Dunlap]

Jim and I are leaving Dallas early on Thursday morning. Out plan is to get there mid-day. I understand we're both working on the speed climb. This should be interesting with the new variation. This should be much more like a real speed climb on a workday.

See you all there...I don't talk Texan...

new variation?

 

[Nathan]

Sounds like a blast! I won't be climbing this year as I have moved on to more intense recreational addictions that get my arse further from the ground.

Plan on stopping by and lending moral support.

 

[Pstuffel]

I am pretty pumped to watch and learn. I still would like to know if there is any way to get involved and help out for the weekend.

 

[Pstuffel]

I had to leave halfway through the masters (my boy was sick and mom had enough. When the call comes in you gotta go!) Who won??????????

 

[Pstuffel]

I got a poop pile of pictures, hope to post soon.

Keith, I see you got a good run at it. Nice to see you being pace-setter for most of the day.

TxTCC belayed speed climb had three stations. Climber had just to tap the bell at each one. Two were off the beaten path just a bit and the top one was at the traditional 60 some feet to stop the clock.

To help out others setting up their TCC, try to keep these stations near the ascent 'lane' so the belayers can retain a reasonable slack/tension and keep the line out of the way of the climber.

Actually, it was done first in Hawaii 2007. At least on the International level.

Way to go Abram! Beating Miguel at the belayed speed climb is no small feat.

Did James K. make it?
