kevbone Posted February 14, 2011 Author Posted February 14, 2011 You got sketched because it was 5.8 not 5.6. First pitch of YW. [video:youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aMKvykdbpA Quote
kevbone Posted February 14, 2011 Author Posted February 14, 2011 The man, the myth. To all the haters out there who hate on Beacon.......suck it! [video:youtube] Quote
stevetimetravlr Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 I got sketched Kevbone 1) it was the first time using my Silent Partner. 2) it was first time climbing the route, I thought it was Broadway but it was YW. 3) so I kept forgetting about untieing and retieing my backup knot every 20 feet and I would be climbing up and hit the end of the rope and be in a bad place but have to reach down and untie and drop the knot, sketchy! So it was a learning experience. Doing Crusing went much easier. I have since learned I don't really need backup knots so much with a silent partner. The thing always locks off, just make sure to take the fall and not try to slow yourself down. Quote

ivan Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 only had to see the boy eat shit twice on the icy bits father of the year strikes again hey, when you're only 2 feet tall it ain't such a long way down - plus he was kinda asking for it, slurping non-stop on the yellow icicles he was snapping off the wall every couple of feet Quote
billcoe Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 .... slurping non-stop on the yellow icicles he was snapping off the wall every couple of feet ...You need to warn him off eating the yellow icicles! Quote

Kevbone was Crushing it last night bouldering session, man I got to get fit like that to be ready for opening day! Nice video...what was the last couple of climbs? It does not look like Beacon. Nice seeing you, Plaidman and ????? at the gym last night. Quote
stevetimetravlr Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Thats a little known crag in the photos. yeah, who was that masked man throwing down at the gym? Same place, same station next week. All you can handle. Thanks for the beta Kevbone, very cool stuff. Quote
billcoe Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) Great vimeo! Love that song too. Whats the route at approx the 4 min mark? opps, nevermind, I see you answered the bone same question. Edited March 9, 2011 by billcoe Quote
Off_White Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Nice vid Steve, but you'd better be careful. That just might be the first thing posted on the subject that makes Beacon look appealing. It's a good thing to have a rope gun for a friend, isn't it? Quote
stevetimetravlr Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Beacon appealing? What are you talking about? that place is terrifying, it don't take no gear, there is snakes and big spiders and peregrine falcons, and don't forget about the crazies.....oh man. yeah, I love having a rope gun, just point em in the right direction and squeeze the trigger as Im getting to old to climb jackshit.

kevbone Posted April 22, 2011 Author Posted April 22, 2011 Pretty slow around these parts this time of the year. Quote
ivan Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Pretty slow around these parts this time of the year. i've been excercising my rare ability not to spray about beacon seen jimbo and company out there too, so not been neglected too much... offering free rides to folks who might want to take the cool way to the top, but no one's taking me up on it yet...fucking tourists.

Lodestone Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Heading to Ozone tomorrow. YEAH! It was nice to meet you out there today Kevin. Great day. Chad Quote
kevbone Posted May 2, 2011 Author Posted May 2, 2011 Heading to Ozone tomorrow. YEAH! It was nice to meet you out there today Kevin. Great day. Chad You as well. Killer day for climbing. The zone was packed to the max....I have never seen almost every climb having a rope on it. It makes sense....that place is super fun climbing. Quote
