Walked over to the uber classic porkchop to see the fading light in the canyon leave its final rays on this boulder. I gave @eeyawn 5 minutes to climb it a few times to get a shoot different angles of this rock. Safe to say, it was well worth the rush! #redrocks #porkchop #evolve #evolveclimbing #desertclimbing #kraftboulders #flashedpads #flashedclimbing #madrockclimbing

Fun little project wrapped up last season, and one of the last sessions... Going to get back into soon now that injuries have healed.

Although the gym is empty and walls are collecting dust, we are still hard at work, making improvements for the much anticipated re-opening! One of those updates was replacing all the old velcro in the South Gym! Stay tuned for more news on changes you can expect to see once we’re all allowed back in here.
Magic sauce! V3/4 Super fun FA from last season, sequence is really cool and interesting. This boulder doesnt have too many lines on it, but the ones it does have are five stars all the way! #bouldering #doyouboulder #flashedclimbing #flashedpads #firstascent #yoho #takakkawfalls #verticalmeetsgravity #stokeyouradventure #goatworthy #mountains #adventurebouldering #explore #nikon #waterfalls #climbingphotography #crimp #underclings

One of a handful of first ascents done today. Felt pretty worked after a few days on, but was psyched to get out and make the most of it. My favorite from the day, calling this one "Baby Snatcher" (V??) . . @flashedclimbing @calgaryclimbing @onsightequipment @unparallelup #bouldering #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #yycnow #yycfitness #yycfit #frankslide #rockclimbing #re1440project #flashedpodium #flashedpads #climbers

Getting real stoked for this season at Takakkaw this year, can’t wait to go out, explore and put some more problems up on new boulders! Going to be sick! Videos of the new boulders and a climb we put up on the last day of the season last year called Black Plague, walked past this prow everyday thinking it was blank, turned out it has small dishes and sloppers down low and nice crimps and edges higher up, stellar problem!

Tried hard on The Egg (V11) in Squamish today, but it wasn't enough. It's been an interesting experience projecting a climb that is right at my current limit. I've done all the moves many times and I know it's possible for me, I just have to get that one try where all the factors come together perfectly. I need to place my heel in the exact right spot when I pull on to start. I need to hit the second hold so that my pinky lands on that crystal. I need to make sure my hands are cold enough that they don't get sweaty, but not too cold that they lack strength. The list goes on. Luck seems to be a big factor, but I know that I will climb it one day if I just persevere. • • • #climbing #bouldering #squamish #squamishclimbing #squamishbouldering #liveclimbrepeat #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #winterbouldering #beautifulbc #tryhard #lasportiva #flashedclimbing #flashedpads #blackdiamond #thenorthface #petzl #squamishlove #exploresquamish
Here’s a First Ascent of a pretty neat prow at Takakkaw falls this past October, This line has some cool compression and dynamic moves that flow quite nicely. The climb is called Black Plague, Located at the Blitzkrieg Boulders. Sit start is v6/7, from a stand it’s around v5. This sectors called Blitzkrieg Boulders because when they came down with the rest of the slide this past winter these two boulders “Blitzed” there way through to the edge of the slide destroying trees, other large boulders and anything else in they’re path. The pads are covering a big crater made by this prow. #flashed #flashedpads #calgaryclimbing #takakkawfalls #takakkaw #bouldering #firstascent #cleaningboulders #flashedchalk #c_l_i_m_b #getoutstayout #extremebouldering #flashedclimbing #climbing #climbingofinsta #doyouboulder #verticalmeetsgravity #stokeyouradventure #reddyyeti #climbingworldwide #thegnardaily #mountainlife #lasportiva #prana #nikon5300 #sendtemps

Here's @ras_al_fool crushing a piece of local Alberta rock at Big Choss a couple weeks back. By the time piece you can tell he's a busy man. He sure can't spend all his days playing outside because he has to finish planning the walls of the new @calgaryclimbing Rocky Mountain Gym so Calgary will have a sweet gym in the NW.

Get in touch with us. We're excited to hear from you. Deadline is mid October! #flashed #flashedpads #flashedclimbing #chalkflashed #movewithconfidence #climbfreeclimbfearlessly #bouldering #climbing
Better to carry more in than to get carried out! Actually, @ras_al_fool just lost the odds game and got to carry all the pads. #flashed | #flashedpads | #chalkflashed | #movewithconfidence | #climbfreeclimbfearlessly
This is Fernando, our production manager. He's the guy making sure deadlines are met so all our climbing floors and other products, which are for the most part hand made in Calgary, AB, arrive at their final destination, almost always a climbing gym, on time. Sometimes even by highspeed sewing those floor panels or climbing mats himself. 📸 @definitely_luke_skywalker #flashed | #flashedpads | #flashedclimbing | #movewithconfidence | #climbfreeclimbfearlessly | #madeincanada
