Afternoon frolic to Olson Park


Day off, that means light grocery shopping, tying up some reading for the rest of the week and a quick trip to the kiddie bouldering wall at the local park.

Hopefully in a few weeks I will be doing this in the comfort of my living room.

New Toys!

Last week I ordered these sweet rock rings from Moosejaw in Ann Arbor. I just picked them up and am foaming at the mouth to give them a try!


I am going to play with them for a week or so and then give you guys a video demo!






Time to continue enjoying my three day weekend!

Go do something fun!

A late birthday gift

I am still on this goal to do some indoor bouldering and rockwalling. However, I would like to show up to the gym and be in shape for the rigors of climbing. This means strengthening my fingers, forearms and back with various pull-up combinations.

Enter the use of rock rings! I have played around on these nifty things at MooseJaw a few times and I think that they will do the trick!

I would really like to have one of the 3D training boards, but you have to have a good spot to put that up, and something tells me that the landlord would not like be mounting that in the wall!

Well, here they are: 

Ordered them from MooseJaw on Friday. 

PS, those people at MooseJaw are super handy and friendly. A great company with loads of character! Not a big box store with bland faces.

Have a great day.

I will let you know how these things work when they get in!
