First Couple of Rock?

Filed under: Look — gavin @ 12:50 am

I don’t know whether “First Couple of Rock” refers to climbing accomplishments or precedence. But the short and long videos on www.bethandtommy.com are interesting. Too bad I can’t link to video page — it’s called “Presentations”.

I feel like there were other “First” couples of rock. I also feel like I have to say that, because Jason and Tiffany Campbell look strong enough to beat anyone up. Beth Rodden probably could too, but it might look like an optical illusion.

The Bachelor Rock Climbs?

Shoot, I have to link to ExtraTv. They report that the bachelor’s rock-solid body can be attributed to his rock climbing. Although the video link looks like a naughtier kind of climbing porn, it’s not very topless. It’s worth watching mainly if you’re curious about the climbing at Chelsea Piers. I remember wanting to go when I visited New York, but they were unclear on the phone about whether a day pass let you climb or if you needed to pay extra.

Wow, Thieves take 30-foot climbing wall. The thieves took the portable outdoor wall you might see at an outdoor festival or other kind of fair. Authorities think it’ll just go into somebody’s barn for their very own rock climbing wall.

Buildering: It’s almost a brick wall

Filed under: Look — gavin @ 12:22 am

It’s bigger than a brick wall, but look at the climbers on a bridge in New Brunswick, Canada. There are some other fun parts of this site, like Treehouse hammocks.
