  • This week's episode is a little different. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to film with Stian Christophersen and Martin Mobråten (authors of 'The Climbing Bible') as well as the legendary Jerry Moffatt. They share some of their insights into training for climbing and performing at your best.

    The fact that jerry is still a larger than life figure all these years later is real testimony that he was the greatest of his time... his book Revelations is well worth a read if you haven't already!

    I belayed Jerry Moffatt in the early 1980s in the Gunks on one climb. Good man. And our bouldering kit, BITD, consisted of shoes, chalkbag, toothbrush and a chunk of old carpeting.

    What a legend! You were my climbing inspiration when I started out in 1984! I saw photos of you climbing in the Verdon and it totally blew me away. I travelled the world for a few years after that in my early 20's as a climbing bum and had the best time ever. Ended up living in Leysin, Switzerland, where Pat Littlejohn was head of the ISM climbing school founded by John Harlin.

    I remember when Jerry Moffat came to Ft. Collins, CO. USA
    Mark Wilford a friend of mine was hosting at Horsetooth Boulders, Eldorado and other places..This was Trad 1984 and Mark and Jerry harvested new, serious 5.11 to 5.13...seems like yesterday, Jeff Bassett

    Climbing highballs is always a struggle between the huge wish to climb that "beautiful" line and the certainty that in case of a fall you have (not you could have !!!) serious health problems. If you love climbing without injury forced interruptions you won´t do that ,cause it is not wearth the risk. To say sometimes No in live, not only in climbing is easier, when you are clever enough! :)

    "You see people and there is no shame to be walking around with two great big mats" - Moffat. I don't know about anyone, but I feel literally zero shame for my desire to not break an ankle when limit bouldering. Also shows you the toxic culture of old skool British climbing.
