Rock Climbing - What are you psyched about? 11-Jun-2009 At 11:55:19 AM evanbb

As stated on another thread that I've grown tired of, I want to talk about climbing for a while. I've been tired and grumpy lately and need to re-psyche myself.

So, what are you psyched about at the moment? Got a wild project under way? Scoped a new crag? Finally stuck a move you've been trying for 32 years?

I'm enjoying learning how to use granite at the moment, and very much feeling like a fish out of water. The friction for feet is ridiculous, but hands less so it seems. I think I've finally learnt how to jam, but lack the endurance to do any proper long jamming pitches. So I'm working pretty hard on that at the moment, and trying not to get too fat in the despicably cold Canberra winter. Psyched for the coming ski season too, where some serious back country fun should go down.
