Malc on Hubble
October 16, 2012, 06:29:44 am
I was wondering if someone who has the issue of OTE with Heinz Zak's photos of Malc lapping Hubble would be so kind to scan them and post them here for me.
It would really make me happy.
Duly rewaerded when I come North next winter.
Thanks a lot.

It was just after he did Hubble so 91...or 92? In "The Young Ones" article that also featured Rachel and Nic and scandalously not pictures of me climbing only in a cellar or Smythe hanging off a beam. What were they thinking?

I'm sure I'll be able to find the young ones copy quite quickly,  (am I right in thinking that's different from the broccoli one).

I'm not sure as I boycotted the magazine after that, successfully forcing them out of business a few years later.

A photo of you climbing on a cellar board looking rather vampiric is in Gresham's Sherpa tour lecture if that makes you feel any better?

My missus was unimpressed by my comment of, "I use the same bouldering forum as him".....

I think it's the same article. I used to have that picture of Malc up inside of our van until it got nicked.

soz guys - seems I'm missing a fair few.  I thought I had the whole lot in boxes - but its seems not.  I definitely remember having them all at the time. Hmmm - must have got lost along the way.

I seem to recall someone on here offering a full set . I'm keen to make up missing ones now.

I'm missing
1-9
11-20
22
24-40 (the young ones issue is in this bunch I think).
42-44
47-48
67-68
84
94
101
106-108

wow - more than I thought (unless I have a box hidden away somewhere!!!).

You're right. It's in 32, with Rachel Farmer doing Raindogs on the cover.

That's genius. Let me get this right, someone broke into your van and stole a picture of Malc on Hubble? And they say most robberies are opportunistic...

I could static Hubble if the rope was that tight.

Note all the shiny new tights / shoes / gear which of course Malc only got AFTER he'd done Hubble and specifically for that photo shoot. As if it needed pointing out, I can confirm that he did not climb the route in La Sportiva Taos. They were shit.

I could static Hubble if the rope was that tight.

 ;D
Yes and if he needed a tight rope on the toe hook move then he definitely wouldn't be able to do any of the others. Lots of shots of Hubble make it look as if the rope is tight when it's not, might just be the angles?

I was going to say the same - climbing the route in them would put it firmly in the 9b zone.

On a similar note, are there any pics of Dunning on Hubble?
