Slacklining and Bouldering

Yesterday was a pretty mellow day off for me. The weather hasn't been too spectacular the last few days so things have really been limited climbing wise. Not to mention I'm still trying to take it moderately easy on my finger because I don't want to have it still bothering me for the week that I'm going to have in The Red. Lyndsey and Jamie are trying to figure out if it is going to be possible to work something so that when Drew and I swing through Lawrence we might be able to grab them up for the week too! I think that would be pretty awesome and hopefully we can get something worked out on that front.

So, after that tangent, yesterday was spent slacklining for a while and then in the evening Gabe, Wayne, Emily, Joey, Matt, and I all headed over to the Marble Boulder to chill and work on some problems. I just messed around on things for the most part working my finger under a light load and making sure to not crimp down on it too hard so I'm not messing with that pulley. Wayne came really close to sending the direct line to the Tobasco problems I put up the other day and I'm really psyched for him because I think he'll get it the next time we head out. We also started working on some problems on a boulder down the hill from Marble and they all seem like really cool but strange in their own unique way. I can't wait to get a little more time in on them when I'm really feeling good with my finger. Maybe a new FA will be in order!

Anyways, here are some pics of slacklining from a few days ago!



Surfing on the line. I fell not much after the photo was taken:


Doing a lunge or what Joey called some Yoga pose. Who knows?


Striking the Tree Pose.


Taking a real quick sit down on the line. I was actually trying to catch an orange then too, but it didn't quite work out.


P.S. To my mom, I hope you have a great time in Austria! I can't wait to see all of the awesome pictures you're going to be posting in your own blog!
