Bigtree Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Stone Nudes redux - http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/2300313/Nude-climber-craze-tipped-to-take-over-Britain.html?DCMP=EMC-new_15072008 "Nude climbing has become popular among beginners and experienced adventurers alike. Its followers say it is the closest they can get to nature, while requiring none of the harnesses and ropes of the normal sport. One enthusiast has even taken to photographing participants, compiling the results into a calendar called Stone Nudes 2009 which, he says, is intended to "inspire and celebrate" the human form. The calendar, which he has been compiling for the past ten years, features black and white shots of perfectly-sculpted women scaling rock faces in the western United States. "This kind of climbing is the sport at its purest, intended to inspire and celebrate the human form," said California-based Dean Fidelman. "Hundreds of people are now participating in a sport that captures the true essence of the climbing sprit." The sport is the latest in a series of nudist adventure pursuits to sweep across America and is tipped to edge its way over to Britain. "It requires no equipment," added Mr Fidelman. "Which means climbers of all abilities can take part." The sport is the latest in a long line to to attract a nudist following. Nude hiking is the most common pursuit, but there is also a World Naked Bike Ride, naked wrestling, naked skating, bowling and yoga, while horticulturalists celebrate a World Naked Gardening Day."

denalidave Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Nude climbing sounds great, so long as it is limited to female climbers like the one posted above. Not so sure I want to see a bunch of harry ass ugly men out there in the buff though. (Not that there is anything wrong with that, I just don't want to see it myself.) Quote
rob Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 So, climbing naked must be easier, since "climbers of all abilitites can take part." If they were clothed, that would no longer be true? Once they put pants on, they suddenly require shoes and harness? Quote
Tokogirl Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 So..........not Stone Nudes calendar with men? or is it mostly women who are on the cutting edge and climbing nude? Quote
billcoe Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Well, ummm, I want to see more pictures before I make up MY mind. Anyone got any? Quote
G-spotter Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 So..........not Stone Nudes calendar with men? or is it mostly women who are on the cutting edge and climbing nude? There is a Stone Dudes calendar but apparently it doesn't sell as well.... aside from the 10 copies Kevbone buys. Quote
ashw_justin Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Some may only realize the farce after their first full-body strawberry, crotch ropeburn, or bareback cholla cactus rodeo. (Not that I have anything against pictures of babes rock climbing.) Quote
dt_3pin Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Whoa! I'm pretty sure she is the ideal clucking partner. Quote

Bigtree Posted July 17, 2008 Author Posted July 17, 2008 Well, ummm, I want to see more pictures before I make up MY mind. Anyone got any? Another British tabloid headline titled "Nice crevasse...shame about the rock face": http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/topstories/2008/07/14/nice-crevasse-shame-about-the-rock-face-89520-20642964/ Cornball, but funny nonetheless.

sobo Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Reach for the jug.... Which one? Or should I go for the "both hands" dyno? Quote
