Off Season

Like it love it? Or just hate it?

Have to say that I have enjoyed climbing quite a bit these past few warm and humid weeks. Off season climbing can be fun if you don't stress too much about it. I've been having some nice sessions with friends in Jyväskylä and Helsinki. Especially super humid session in Myllis was cool! Just did a lot of easier stuff but had to fight for every single one of them. So cool! Seems that every time I go to Myllis it's either too warm or wet. Now it was both!

Btw. Should off season be called wedding season instead?

Once again congratulations to our dear friends Juha and Oili! Thanks for an amazing wedding party! All the best to you both!

Now that the weather seems to start cooling down I've injured my both middle fingers... Right worse than left. Board climbing isn't good for you if you do too much of it. Holds are very similar all the time. I think that's the reason why I got injured fingers. Well live and learn. Although I think I should have learned all ready...

Anyhow, here is a video of Gluteus Maximus. F.A was done by Mika Hinkkanen. Think it was 1st of November 2007? Boulder is quite "of the beaten track" so it doesn't get much traffic. Although it's really worth your while. It consists 3 hard moves and shares the top out with 'Pacman'. Climbing is very similar to this Font problem called 'Hibernatus gauhe'. Although for me Gluteus Maximus felt a tad harder. Conditions weren't prime though.
