B.I.F.F
January 27, 2015, 10:14:05 pm
Can't believe this hasn't been on here before - the Beastmaker Indoor Footless Festival. This saturday at the Climbing Works. A selection of the worlds most hideously strong yet technically inept climbers being monsters, with lashings of beer for the spectators and a commentary that may well take the form of a torrent of abuse.

We're not going to take things too seriously, even though the female bouldering world champion will be competing! More stuff on the events page at www.climbingworks.com of search for B.I.F.F on crackbook

There should be weight categories. Even with your new svelte figure you'd be in with a shout

Any way to buy/reserve spectator tickets before the night for those not in Sheffield?

You want to travel to watch a load of idiots do footless problems? I live a minute away if you've got a limp and it's only Percy mentioning beer that's just about tipping it for me

I'm still well into the 90kg+ category

trouble is, I can't do more than 1 move at a time

Sunday it's my birthday.
Hadn't I had 30 people at my place Saturday night, I would have come over to be ridiculized by real streng guys and gals.
Yesterday's BM session was gorgeous by the way.
And I am positive that Lagers and I are in the same category.

I suspect that even with a stack of weights to put you in the same weight catagory as me, you would still burn me off

Phone up for tickets - less than 40 left. 01142509990 is the Climbing Works - pay by card over the phone. I feel sure you will be guaranteed some brutal displays of power by people you've never seen climb owt hard on a rock....!

I sat and watched a load of lagers Peak bouldering vids one evening and the next day went to try some of them, thinking they didn't look too hard. Wrong! I wasn't strong enough to manage even a move on many of them. The man's an undercover beast.

Yup he's the ultimate grit hustler..

The number of times I've watched him cruise up something (usually involving slopers, pulling and slapping) and failed miserably myself..

He makes a good field expresso espresso though

I have no interest in his sex life!

The man doth protest too much? ;)

This bugs me far more than it should, but there's not a chance he's getting the 9 bar of pressure to produce a proper crema without an espresso machine...

Yes - my calculations show 8.88 bar if we assume the aero press filter is 10 square cm. if it's a little smaller (think it is) then it's above 9. SCIENCE.

The great tasting nutritious mixed seed energy bar is a wonderful accompaniment to coffee

it's all done with CGI

I use the green and blue mats at The Mini Works as background to perform impossible moves on and then chroma key the fuck out of the resultant video

While the most important event in the history of climbing will be developing, I will be celebrating my 43th birthday getting drunk and fat.
Could someone make sure that the full video is going to be online tomorrow or in the next days?
Fuck I'll miss it.
