first time on rock again ;)

it was a nice half-day out in the murgstal: everybody ripping; angela coming closer and closer to "painful love, 7C"... (i can't even imagine to hold such little shitty holds...) and ronny is battling down his traverse project... looks super hard and super cool... (and he just went down on the last move two days ago..) ...and aldo was taking nice pics of everybody - thanks aldo!

and i was first time on rock since 6.5 months .. ;) it was strange to climb on rock again after 2months of just indoor. i felt like a beginner again who was searching for that next red foothold... - and i am still pretty restricted in the moves by my leg... (and the holds were sharp, i had no skin and everywhere this little scrambling black bastardos called: ticks's...) - but it was great fun nevertheless... ;)


month 3 after surgery...


see the difference ;)


month 7 after surgery...

  4. Glad you are back on rock again, Martin!

    About the ticks.. they must have loved the shitty weather we've been having this year.. Try the yellow "anti insect zecken" spray from Migros. It came first in Ktip test and I haven't found one of these nasty buggers on my legs since I spray them with it a couple of times during a day out in the wild :)

  6. Hey Martin!
    Of course I didn't! Do you think that I'll come with four girls without telling you? I'm not that young anymore!
    Jokes apart, we would like to come as soon as possible, but this weather is really annoying! Is there a place that is climbable? We could come over at the beginning of June, so maybe Gottardo?
