progression shorts review!
Our all new Organic Cotton and Chitosante Progression Short
Hey everybody! So the results are in and the new shorts in my mind are the best pair Beta has ever produced. The Progression shorts are exactly that: the result of producing shorts for the last 10 years and refining them every time until finally getting something that can satisfy the largest amount of people and out-perform all its predecessors.
I have helped in developing and testing all the Beta shorts right from the beginning, but realize that given i truly care about the performance and look of my climbing shorts, i was NOT a bias part owner of Beta saying ” i love them, now lets just sell them”.
air jamaica and the road to recovery
Happy to finally be on the mend
So lots has happened since arriving home from Mexico. I have been going to physiotherapists, chiropractors, and sports doctors non-stop in order to try and figure out what was wrong with my elbow.
After an x-ray, ultrasound, and finally an MRI, the results say its peritendonitis on my left elbow that has been plaguing my life for the couple months since the point of injury back in November.
beta vs. tdb live @ true north!
don't you just wanna get your grubby, chalky hands all over that virgin plastic? if you signed up for saturday's tdb comp you'll get your chance!
are you as stoked as we are to check out the newest climbing gym in ontario? mmmm…there’s just something about that new gym smell that gets me everytime! and what better way to test the walls than with ye olde tour de bloc? what’s that you say? how about if you were pullin’ on all that good comp plastic sportin’ some new beta threads you scored on the premises!?! well your wish is our command, jackson!
The Left Overs :)
Left overs as the title of this post because that is what you can call the handful of climbs i have left in the potrero. A lot of these routes have been left for a reason, not because they super hard necessarily but maybe they are dangerous, or just not worth doing due to type of rock or maybe location. Usually 10 year old open projects have reasons for still being unclimbed.
The last week has been pretty quiet actually, i have tried to get on the crying rian project a couple times, but there is a section of the route that is constantly seeping along with two rest huecos higher on the route, this is why one of the locals said nobody bothered with the route, somedays its dry and somedays its wet and dirty which is super frustrating while trying to coordinate rest days and climbing other routes so i dont detrain.
hola 2010 and hola mexico ;)
Hola 2010
So the new year has come and I’m excited to that say that after the stomach flu and head cold and alcohol poisoning that brought in this new year and the painful days of rest that were required in order to overcome it, it’s now time to enjoy the rest of the fun filled days this year has left.
training for the fall
Hey everybody! So I told some people that I was willing to help anyone train this fall– if they wanted a free personalized program, I would hook them up. Whether its for tour de bloc or just personal improvement i could help set up an effective program that can get you through the winter and become awesome strong for the spring 
so here is the deal, I have prepared 9 starter questions that will help establish the foundation of a personalized training program, if you interested send me an email with the answers and we can go from there.
