Pine Mountain Pulldown

This last weekend I went down and shot some photos at the Pine Mountain Pulldown. This is a great outdoor comp put on by All Out Events and it is in its 3rd year. This year I was lucky enough to talk Ben Polanco from Evolv into joining me. I toured him around the crag and watched as he basically crushed everything out there. While we were climbing we ran into Dan Beal and Ian Dory from the Asana crew and they joined Ben and basically polished off every double-digit at the crag. I shot some amazing photos for an article I am working on. Some of the shots are of Pine Mountain and a few are from the next day at Santa Barbara's Brickyard. Here are the outtakes. I had to throw out some, but they were all my favorites. Please let me know what you think.

Joes Valley

Got out to Joes Valley this weekend with Rocco and Jacinda. The area is amazing to say the least and I was able to do a few classics. Jacinda was also able to quickly dispatch her nemesis Wills of Fire. The line climbs incuts and pockets to a five-star finish. After working out the beta for the top out she finally sent in good form!!
