A campus board breakthrough, they dont come along very often do they! I reckon it would be 6 or 7 years since i did my first 1-4-7 on a standardised campus board. So it was very gratifying to my summer of power to do 1-5-8 the other day. Unfortunately Leroy and I built the board under the influence a few years ago so the spacings do vary between 225 mm and 215mm so its not quite perfect but it will do me for the time being. Lots of people say that campus boards are bull and dont transfer to the rock very well being about a trick to the movement etc etc. Well it makes me feel like I am improving, and that feeling helps me to keep going to the mill on dry and dusty days, or wet and rainy mornings.
4 of the 5 Swallows that hatched in the rafters have left the nest and made it out without the rats or cats getting them. The other judging by some feathers was less fortunate. I will miss having them to watch while I am resting, the parents trying to push them off the beams to make them fly was cool.
More tricks that mean nothing but maybe work something, the one arm campus lunge. Basically as with the one arm pull up this is something that I have always seen people like Higg and CJD doing so wanted to do it myself. So far progress is slow, but I have got the trick bit sorted so can do one on the juggy fingerboard, now to apply it to the proper campus rungs. I can hit it but not catch it, therefore it must be working my contact strength.
Bad Shit
The mill toilet, some fool thought it was a good idea to shit in it, clearly they had no idea it stopped flushing about a year ago. I take my mill guardianship quite seriously at present but there is no way I am dealing with this one.
Post session Vino, almost certainly not a good athletic plan but a tasty one.
Nice one Dave - shame about the shitter.
ReplyDeleteGood to see the Mill psyche is high.
I will post some photos of our training wall here in Cham when I take a few in the next week or so.
I am also getting in to the campus board at the moment, my main aim is to not get tendonitis in my elbows!
Your post has increased my already high level of psyche!
Hope you are doing well.
