Jala Por El Resuello 8a, Tenerife
Просмотров 1198 месяцев назад
Fun, bouldery climb in Arico abajo, Tenerife! I redpointed this line after 13 attempts spread over 5 days of effort on my last possible attempt before leaving the island. The key ended up being the way my fingers grabbed the left sidepull at the end of the second crux... Thank you to all of the beautiful people i met at basecamp ortiz :)
Surfer Rosa (13a) Redpoint
Просмотров 218Год назад
Poor phone camera quality video of a high quality route! I am 6'1" with a 2 ape index and this was my beta on the redpoint burn of the rock climb Surfer Rosa in El Potrero Chico in Mexico. It took me 11 burns spaced over 5 days to get it clean. I really enjoyed the movement and the effort on this route and found it harder than other local routes of the grade.
Finding Joy Song

This is just a little song that's been with me for a while. Before letting it disappear forever, maybe it can bring someone a small amount of joy first.
Ski Across The Garibaldi Neve In 4 Minutes

On April 11 Heidi and I left Elfin Lake Trailhead at 0620 and arrived at Rubble Creek Trailhead at 1820 (12 hours total). There were many people on the route today (around 70!) making travel easy on a well established skin track. Excellent visibility and great skiing on North aspects made this a beautiful albeit tiring spring day in the mountains :) I was inspired in part by Kraig Adams hiking ...

Thank you to everyone who supported and encouraged us in this project! We are very happy with the end result, and are finding it to be a nice cozy full time home on wheels. Feel free to comment any questions regarding the build and I will do my best to answer! FAQ's answered: Regarding the high top: It is a fiberglass aftermarket high top, that was on the van when we bought it. It was 6'5 inter...
thanks mate, checking it out in late april and will be pressed for time. 6'3 here so incredibly useful vid here
How did it go?
첫볼트까지 빌레이를 저리보냐?
Nice song Phil! Did you write this?
How high is yer high-top?
Catan? Take my upvote.TAKE IT!
Needs a lot more work
Because you need a fireplace in California
Wow you did a hell of a nice work man! Beauty!
Thanks for sharing your ideas! I would love to know where you got your high top cover. I don't know where to go for that other than a body shop which will install it for you...:-(
Nice
It's beautiful!
Trip statistics: Distance - 40km Elevation gain - 1700m Time - 12 hours Most people seen from a single point - 38! Beauty - noted and enjoyed :)
Ok, ive been looking for some real insight on the swivel seat. I like dot rated ones. They have a 2" offset. Does this destory the leg room with the engine tunnel? I dont think i could sit in the passenger seat if it was 2in toward van center
Guessing you've found showers at truckstops since posting this. Little handheld CB and some trucker will always have a shower on their card if ya just ask. For free.
very nice!
Good work ( Go Dad ) very good van camper tour.
I've been trying to figure out simple lift cabinets and the magnet idea solved a major problem I've been having. Thank you!
Somebody needs to come up with a light substitute for wood paneling on the walls. The warmth of wood has no equal. The weight must kill gas millage,
I was thinking 1/4 inch masonite paneling would work. I am not convinced that the wood cladding has all that much insulation by itself.
hows the fuel efficiency on that van fully loaded?
Its brutal! Expensive road trips. Haha
I've got a 97 Chevy Express high top that's been converted also. Where did you get the hardware for the swivel front seats?
Cooldealdude but spray foam is a big no for this type
1:43 - engraved brass table top looks Persian. Nice touch. Your girlfriend must be Persian too. You should explain some of the materials used in countertop, and tell us brand of fridge, how it is powered, thickness of cabinet wood panels, etc. Nice to know how it was built. The stove looks lovely, and is a high end one. It is however, right up against the bed, 6 inches away from fabric bedding, a serious fire hazard. I would put some insulating material between stove and bed as soon as possible. There should be a hefty clearance around stove. If you choose to bypass this safety zone, then use an effective barrier. Ceramic or firebrick tiles mounted on wood panel should work. My house burned down due to an electrical fire due to negligence by previous owner. Don't underestimate a fire hazard. You may want to get a Porta-Potty and encase it like a rolling stool for a leg rest. Nice to have one. Put your recycling in garage. Also, get a small solar pump for your sink, it will be so nice to have easy running water. Well done on the low budget build, very creative and functional. Looks like a cozy travel home for you both! Be sure to visit Big Sur in California, and drive on Pacific Coast Highway all the way from Carmel to Los Angeles. If you head back, take 101 and see all the CA historic old Spanish Missions. Each one gives you a slice of California history. Bon Voyage!
awesome build! those magnets were a great idea!
Thanks for the video. Any Social media links to follow you?
Did the roof come raised or was that done for the camper conversion? I'm hoping to get a similar Chevy Express but don't see much of the taller (standing room) roofs. Thanks.
Nice job! Question: What did you use for the front seat swivel? I have a similar van and am looking for a good option. Thanks.
I got mine from shop4seats.com. I do not reccomend this option though as their service was terrible. Good luck!
Thanks for the reply and the link. I've seen other reports from people who've used the same swivel base, but from different suppliers. All of which had similarly bad service. But as far as how well it works, what's your report? From what I understand, the base raises the seat 2" and moves it inboard by 2". I'm just wondering how that is for passenger riding comfort.
Great conversion! Perfect mobile ski chalet, love the fireplace/heater! Some details I especially appreciate: Coping the T&G up under the cabinets so you don't have the edge hanging there to whack your forehead... Garage BIG gear drawer and ski storage cubbies... the "mud room" rubber floor at the entry (smart!)... swivel seats and multipurpose recycle/ottoman/step-stool. Remarkably good job for beginners, you clearly invested a lot of time into planning and thinking thru what you wanted.
Hi Billder, thanks for the kind words! Indeed each of these things were planned and were a pain in the ass to implement (as novice builders) haha. All the best!
Nice van, PLEASE dispose of your gray water properly.
It's great how you get straight to the point without a long winded introduction. So refreshing. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. What are you using for a bed - what is the mattress? Do you have a porto-potty system?
Hi roger. Using an ikea foam mattress and no portopotty system, just a piss jar 👌
I've been researching spray foam insulation to use for my high top van as well, some say that over time, the spray foam's adhesive will break away from the fiberglass top, thus leaving an air gap and will cause condensation in between it. Did the company that did the job tell you anything about that being an issue?
They didn't mention anything about that, but good to know!
Cool van dude and FairPlay to you doing it yourself as I know how difficult it is ,especially not being square anywhere I completely know what you mean! I’m in the process of doing my own van conversion right now🚌👍
Well done! Great set up!
Hey Phillip, I love the van build and was looking to do something similar! Is that a standard length or the extended length Express? You were able to do so much with the space! thanks
Hi Benjamin. It is 11'6" from behind the driver seat to the back door. Not sure if that's extended or not. Good luck!
Can you tell me which type of seat swivel base you used? I am searching for one for my '05 Express 3500, and I'm not sure which one to go with.
Hi there, I got mine from shop4seats .com. Make sure you get the right bolt pattern. I wouldn't recommend buying from them though because the service was terrible and it didn't come for 2 months. Good luck!
How much was the spray foam job?
200. great deal!
And then the fireplace. Great job dude!
Loved the van and loved that you have a heater!
Yeah, going to be real happy to have it in a month!
You guys did a great job.
Fantastic build . what is the name of your furnace?
dickinson marine p12000
Pullup bar.. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.
if you going to live in it 24\7 you need it
I really like the idea of a folding [hideaway] table. Great job!
you need a toilet and shower
What's the height inside? Floor to ceiling. And what size hightop did you get?
Nicely done....
sorry I have to disagree with the others who said great video, it left more questions than answers. Solar system, what is that you have, what controller and why, batteries series or parallel why, inverter?, toilet shower bed size chairs for table fire extinguisher carbon monoxide detector new/old van raised roof water proofing roof exhaust pipe through roof how do you get on the roof is the fire place rated for a van. you started with pulling out the the drawer part way closing it and shutting the back doors wow, I learned zero, of course I learned something, and I thank you, but you didn't really do your van Justice, so much not said that an update would be in order, not trying to be mean but keeping it real
Great personality and liked that stove. You didn't mention the toilet options.
the best. thanks for sharing
Awesome job. Does the heater work well? curious because I would like to buy one.
Yes, the heater keeps the place warm enough down to -10c for sure. Only downside is everything below the unit stays alot colder. A forced air unit could be on floor level and have a thermostat, but no fireplace...
