Vertigo1

Always been into outdoor sports (mountain biking, yacht sailing and skiing) and anything that gets me intouch with the elements. I train regularly but try to do as much outdoor trad and sport climbing as the weather allows (mostly local crags: South Wales, Cheddar Gorge, Brean Down, Portland, Goblin Combe, Avon Gorge, etc.)...but my heart lays in Kalymnos! At the moment pushing into the 7's and E's grades.

Best Climbing Experience
Redpointing my first F7C, "Everyday Lives of Ordinary People" at Cheddar. 3 days later I was still buzzing.
3 weeks in Kalymnos April/May 2012.
Onsighting "El Calgol" in Siurana, one massive monster pitch (50m long), I think it took me the best part of an hour to climb it, epic!
