Deck the halls with quickdraws


It's that time of year again; the season for climbing!
Summer has come and brought with it a mixed bag of tropical rainstorms, fry-an-egg-on-your-bonnet heat, and dry refreshing sendage breeze - in vastly unpopular ratios. Making the most of the weather windows is the art, and finding someone silly enough to give you a catch is the science. 
Also wishing everyone a happy xmas and new years, send hard :)

Winter 2K15 - Park, Powder, Patrol

Where is Spot?



Splashin' in the Golf Course Fishbowl. 
Powder stretches in every direction, lines are bold and carves are deep. Cheeky boulders are now submerged and shrubbery is scattered like broccoli above a sea of vanilla clouds. Complete creative freedom is bestowed on those who venture this wide from the groomers with more pristine backcountry discovered every run. Park riding can wait.
