I grew up in the desert expanse of New Mexico and the soaring syenite formations of Hueco Tanks were never too far away. My coach at the time and good friend, Lance Hadfield first introduced me to the boulders. I was twelve years old and it was my first time climbing outdoors.

I've watched all the recap videos and immediately put on my list of must do competitions. I was feeling pretty good when I bought my plane tickets. I just had a great trip out in southeast where I did some of my hardest sends and I just won youth ABS Divisionals. Only problem was that every other strong person on the planet flew out to climb at this thing too.

I think I go to Tennessee every holiday I possibly can which is awesome because the southeast has a lot of great quality sandstone. Most of my family that came down for the holiday also rock climb, so it's not your average family Christmas where you go do the family stuff as fast as possible then book it to the closest crag. ]]> Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:39:00 -0500 13759 2013-01-15 http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-1-of-7-1358210365.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-5-of-7-1358210365.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-2-of-7-1358210365.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-6-of-7-1358210365.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-3-of-7-1358210366.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-7-of-7-1358210366.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_christmas-4-of-7-1358210366.jpg http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/13123-first-of-many-jimmy-webb http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/13123-first-of-many-jimmy-webb Well this is my first Five Ten blog post. I'm so psyched to be on the team!!  My life is beginning to change for the better and I am looking forward to what comes next. My girlfriend Kasia Pietras and I are leaving for a month and a half road trip to Colorado in just 6 days and we can't wait.  Twenty hours on the road will be tough, but worth it. ]]> Tue, 05 Jun 2012 18:08:00 -0400 13123 2012-06-05 http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_574838-595577641367-89600125-31991860-411596576-n-1338919720.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_179504-595770549777-181262498-n-1338919720.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_545647-595770599677-2008267152-n-1338919720.jpg
