Just in case yesterday's post made you curious about bouldering, I have some videos for you. First of all one that is showing you an introduction to our usual haunt:
Then there's a recent boulder we did that we ended up with very different solutions. First, the Most Patient Husband climbs it like it was probably intended to be done:
For me, this didn't work. The black volume at the bottom is too far away and too flat for me - I don't get enough pressure on that foot, so it slips. I also have a hard time reaching the next hold from the start hold, so I had to think of something to help me get there. Good thing I have legs, and feet, and a bit of flexibility. Oh, and it only takes me two and a a half time as long... but see for yourself. (Fun, though.)
