Im not the strongest climber, but Im up for committing above gear, and taking big lobs, so the resulting fim might make good watching. Its a chance to do a good deed for the day, at the cost of a few clicks! I honestly think I would be a good choice. Support a fellow ukc addict!
Thanks!
For those who like to keep reading, and need more persuading, here is why I think I am right for this, and would be better than the others to watch:
>I am up for climbing onsight unknown routes at my limit on trad in the rain. Did it last weekend and it was brilliant!
>Falling off is normal for me on trad, because I want to climb harder routes than i can! Good to watch. Plus I often scream like a frightened little girl as I fall, earning me the nickname 'juanita' in the past. Extra humour factor.
>im not totally rubbish, so the routes might look cool, and will likely be steep. Better climbing and shooting in the rain!
>I have learned to prussik well, from getting shut down seconding out of my league, so there would be more camera time for Dave to crush, which is what we all want to see anyway.
>I really need some waterproofs. My first winter climbing was in cotton, due to poverty. This is my chance to finally own a waterproof coat! (Sob story win!)
>Encouraging others is what I do. I love seeing other people crush through their limits nearly as much as I enjoy bombarding mine! Not quite as introverted as the average climber perhaps. Might be more interesting on tele?
The best reason of course is... I really really ant to go. This is my heaven. Send a climber to heaven for two weeks by voting!
Climbing love
