I first met up with Italian Gabriele Moroni, 25, two years ago it was on the other side of the world during Petzl’s Rock Trip in Getu Valley China. Besides having perfect English and negating my perceived perception that all Italians had dark hair, Gabriele stuck out in my mind from his incredible climbing performance. Gabri, as his close friends call him, was one of the only among a trove of talented athletes in attendance to send the Rock Trip’s “Ultimate Route” Coup de Bambou, 9a (14d). When I saw Gabri again this spring in Catalunya Spain he seemed...

Alright here's the review of my last comp, ABS Youth Nationals. Leading up to this comp, I stayed with the amazing hosts Nina Williams and Beau Kahler. Meagan and I were psyched to get to stay with them and to train during the week. After a couple trips to Movement Climbing + Fitness, CATS, and Team ABC's gym, I headed back out to Colorado Springs with a couple kids on my team and their mom. We got to the hotel, checked in, and I went to go register. Of course, I was so...

A bunch of riding clips mixed together from late 2012 and early 2013. Shot on the Sunshine Coast, at Joyride 150 and in California. Riding from 510 athlete Ray George as well as Brett Rheeder, Andrew Bigelow, Matt Macduff, Brayden Barrett Hay, Brandon Semenuk and more. Enjoy!!

I am just returning from my first trip to Central Asia, Kazakhstan to be specific. I was there with Espen Fadnes shooting with Warren Miller for their next ski movie. We had some good fun speed riding with my new Mutant 11 with Five Ten logo

Now that I am able to look back and reflect on...

It has been another hard winter here in Scotland. The long dark nights, the rain and the work commitments have once again meant that rock activity has been limited. Same old story huh?! Well, with a weather window coinciding with a few days off there was nothing for it but to escape the country all together.
