Climbing idols 29-Nov-2005 At 1:53:17 PM Take!

Mike Law was my idol before I grew out of such things as hero worship. For his pioneering, his writing and his nose thumbing at the so called 'rules'.

I remember borrowing his drill. He was giving me all this advice and I got all tongue tied and embarrased not knowing what to say because he was my, my... 'hero'. Silly, when I think back about it, haven't said boo to him since though.

Back then things were more local for me due to a lack of the internet, lack of money to buy magazines etc. You just saw people out climbing, read the FA names on guide books etc and thought, wow.

Its different now though I am still inspired by anyone who is pushing 'limits', taking their climbing to new levels AND having fun doing it.
