Scroll down to see a great example of how to belay a boulderer. At least he is wearing a helmet!

A good link hero.
Thanks for sharing.
Vision-impaired artist David Conway paints the world as he sees it
"I've gone on a massive journey" the 32-year-old said.
"Especially coming from a place where I was completely blind and paralysed from the chest down."
Sitting inside his Mackay home, in North Queensland, Mr Conway reflected on the day — 12 years ago — when he had a rock climbing accident on Mount French, near Toowoomba…
- a story lies within each painting.
- one artwork was titled 'not so straight and narrow' to represent how unplanned life could be at times.

Oh, and DC's paintings are quite interesting too!

That is a brilliant photo. Nice find!

Actually like the potential DWSing in the background of the main shot of the two kayakers...

Surely such an important piece of clothing as that is meant for use only in off-width adventures.

That's actually how I found it. :-)

BTW, there's a $3000 sweater under that $3000 vest!

Nicely played OR.

I like how they reversed the gender roles of the original photoshoot.

"Four of Australia's rock climbing royalty" on tonight's Ninja Warrior. The Cosseys, Andrea Hah and Tom O'Halloran. I won't spoil the result but it's worth a look. Here's a link to the bio page on the website. I'm sure you can find the footage online somwhere.

[Moderator edit; The link posted above is broken. It is the example link used in the Chockstone help section, as the how-to do it method! I can't correct it as the base information that's needed for the intended link hasn't been posted.]

[TooFatToClimb edit: Huh, don't know what happened there. It should be fixed now but ajfclark put in the correct link as well.]
