Tripod Stills

Took some time to get out of the house and decided to use the Infusion tea gift card I won during PRG’s Struggle Bus competition. I thought I would be clever and try updating this page from my laptop, but who knew that public Wi-Fi wasn't so reliant? It's not too much of a problem, since phones nowadays have mobile Hotspots. 

The weather has been a bit garbage for rock climbing but at least it's getting cooler. It keeps raining every week so I've been spending most of my time indoors training, dreaming, setting. Recently, I've been perusing the r/climbing discord and the topic of photos came up, and how some people were questioning if it was possible to get good photos even though they didn't have a buddy with a camera. Because of this, I've been taking some time to go through the climbing footage I have and grabbing tripod stills from the various send and projecting sessions. Some of this has come out pretty good, so this is proof that not every good climbing shot has to come from a handheld camera with lots of labor. I shared some of these on the gram and on the discord. Might as well also post them on here. The photos are only from 3-4 months, but it feels like forever. I can't wait to get more footage from the fall season (and hopefully Hueco). I'll probably get around to posting some shots Joe has took of me this past season too. 

Regarding Hueco, I still haven't made reservations, so I'll need to get on that. I hope to do it either tomorrow, or by next week. 

Here are a few of the stills:
