Chinese pole

  The center is putting up Chinese poles, we got a chance to experiment after class this week and it was a blast.  Can't wait for the class to be officially up and running!!
   Otherwise, started learning a one leg hang of sorts... beautiful but also feels like my ankle is going to be sliced off by the rope, even halfway off the ground.
Tricks aside, climbing is really starting to click physically. It's still hard work, but my body understands it to the point that I'm not gripping, or struggling. 
The next step is definitely endurance.
3 month goal: 10 climbs per class (at 4-5 right now).

Climbing the pole:

Monkey mouth, seeing exactly how much core strength is in there!

Getting a hang of the.. er.. hang on the ground first. Yep, it hurts.
