That's it.

Winter has arrived and the competition has been
competed. So only thing to do is to wait for spring to
come...


Not too keen to swim any more...


Here Juho pulling hard on big jugs... Jyrki won the comps
by sending 15 out of 28 problems set by me and Ila.
Although Sorsa put on a real fight...

Cold action.

A cold november morning in Muuratsalo. Tomi was keen
to go do Keventäjät, but maybe it was a bit too cold?


Doris having fun.


Tomi working with Keventäjät.
Kung fu style.

Out'n About.

Been so busy latelly that haven't
managed to climb much. Today
went out just to realise how tired
I am. Need to sleep more...


Here Jyrki is working with a new
problem called 'Korallit kuntoon
Jacques Cousteau' at new area in
Jyväskylä called 30.4.


Ila doing the same. It's about 20 moves slouper monster
set by Teemu last summer.

Booty.

Kikka sending Booty. Might I just add that it
looked very easy when she did it. Well some
times you just hit everything perfectly. Good
Effort!

Vaasa report.

Finally fonund a decent place to stay over night in Vaasa!
Well not in Vaasa but worth the drive any ways.


Also spotted this beautiful wall on the way
to the beach. It's called 'Keripukki' and the
rock is perfect.


Kikka did 'Rantatien kantti'.


Tomi just about to deploy parachute.


Nalle doing F.A to highball arete.
Now named 'Projektipäälikkö'.
Grade, not too bad but fooking high.


Also, we had to stop at Esa's house
to see Doris...

Nälkävuosi.

Yet another problem added to
Jyväskylä's long list of world class
boulder problems. Me sending
'Nälkävuosi' @ Lievestuore.

Ila campusing on rounded holds of
'Nälkävuosi'. Might I just add that
Ila has single handedly tripled the
places to climb in Jyväskylä.
Whitout him we'd be still bouldering
in Kanavuori. So big thanks to Ila for
all the hard work!

Hitman, etc.

First stop was to go see some puppies.
Kikka and Doris.


Next was finding a camp and shoot some night art.


In a moring it was time to try 'Hitman'.
Managed to fall from the top twice on
stand start . Seems to be the crux for
me. Bad tactics since i didn't do
the top first as i should have. Here OP
working with a 'petit homme' way on
'Hitman'. OP got close but no sigar.

Superstyling.

OP writing a mental code of how to
climb 'Superstyling' @ Keljo.

Testing.

Funny shot with a new lense.

Kalle climbing 'Booty' yet again.


Campusing might not work...

We went to Tomas and Danielas wedding in Föglö at
Finnish archipelago. Of course i forgot my camera that
day so Mr Vakiopaine and Kafesolo will have more
pictures of wedding on their sites.

Calm seas, but the storm is about to rise.


On a car deck they told us that we can forget about
docking at the port of Långnäs because of the windy
conditions. So via stockholm we arrived to Marienhamn
next day. About 18h on a ferry instead of 4h...


Mr cool aka Samppa reminding him
self how to move on rock. Djupviken.
