Videos On The Rock

Back when I was an active snowboarder, I was always shooting footage of myself to help me perfect my tricks and style. I did the same things when I played in a punk band. Watching the footage always helped me critique myself and do better the next time.

Now that I am always climbing, and I always have a camera in my hands, more footage of myself and others will be hitting the editing screen and making it onto the internet for all to enjoy and use to get psyched about the sport.

The three videos below are just some quick edits I did with some raw-non-scripted footage of myself that was shot during a couple of climbing trips.





On The Rock

This post full of pictures isn't so much about me as it is about all my wonderful friends that have been by my side and capturing the moments on their camera. Thanks for all the great shots.

Video: Midget Widget - Ririe, ID

It's not every day that I get to shoot and edit a video that includes some of my own climbing.

This video is of me, Jennilyn Eaton, and Sam Perkins climbing at Midget Widget near Ririe, ID. This band of very-low basalt cliffs allows us hungry trad climbers to go and practice our piece-plugging skills.
