At Hangdog, we’ve been privileged to witness some truly amazing birthday parties. We’ve also seen some parties that didn’t go to plan, meaning we’ve developed an deep understanding of what helps to make a birthday party amazing.

One thing we know from teaching skills like climbing is that goals and habits can quickly become routine and stale.

The weather gets warmer, the end of year festivities are beginning and you are in holiday mode… It’s hard to stay keen for climbing sometimes when life gets busy and the beach is calling. So how can you stay psyched over the silly season?

Climbers have a reputation for being “dirt bags”. I don’t know why. We don’t like being wasteful or paying for things that aren’t necessary and are possibly a tad lazy BUT really, when it comes down to it, climbers are smart and inventive! Why carry 2 different items in your pack when plenty of them double up and can be used for various things…

I have recently been on the hunt for another pair of climbing shoes. I was after something I could keep on my feet for long periods of time, comfy and nothing too aggressive. I am lucky in knowing that Scarpa’s generally fit my foot really well, so I decided to give the new Scarpa Force X a run for their money…

We can see it in your eyes…
