Hi Group, I'm Tommy. I'll be in The Valley for the entire month of May and am hoping to meet some new climbing partners through this site for some big wall fun, and sh#t. I'm 39 and live in Lakewood, Colorado. I'm pretty solid climbing alpine, trad, aid, and even sport - at ANY grade! I’ve climbed practically everything that’s worth flaking-out a rope for in Wyoming, Idaho, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, and California. Last time I climbed in CA was at Stoney Point… It was pretty cool until some dude shot me and took my beer and weed, and sh#t. It all worked out though because I had more weed and beer in my mom’s car.
I don’t travel as much as I used to, so I’m really looking forward to my upcoming trip to The Valley this summer. My climbing focus nowadays is mainly on HARD trad, running it out on dicey aid, and smoking lots of stellar weed. I still sport climb, and sometimes I even go bouldering too – but only if there will be beer hotties. I've got my own rack and can *always* flash up to 5.11c/d onsight… Besides, like I said, I’ve already done most climbs worth doing… Fact is, if it’s a nice looking line, I probably 3rd classed it in my tennis shoes back in the ‘90s and didn’t report the FA. Sorry to all you dudes that think you got the FA. Don’t be a hater, just sayin’.
My climbing game’s been a bit off since I crashed my hog over the winter and lost a bunch of muscle mass. I was runnin’ from the pigs with a full load of hash. I would’ve got away too if that little Navajo boy didn’t nail me in the head with a rock when I was cutting through the reservation. Man, that little turd knocked me the fock out! At least the pigs didn’t get the hash… By the way, please PM if you see a stoned little Indian boy riding around on a Harley soft tail near Chinle, AZ. He might be selling hash too.
I probably can't climb as hard as I was since my fall, but I'm training and working out regularly, so I'm sure I'll be putting the flash to the hard test-pieces again real soon! Biggest problem is all the weight I lost. Some would say I’m still a bit frail.
Well, words can only tell you so much about who I am, so I've posted a picture of myself below. I took this picture earlier today. I'm trying to stick with my standard high carb, low protein training diet and I think its finally starting to work! I'm FINALLY starting to put some weight back on, but I still think need to bulk up a bit more.
Hit me up if you think we should go climbing, and shit!
Oh yeah, I almost forgot - scroll down to see my picture below!
