New Addition to the Family

While snow has come and gone from my little village, I am welcoming a new addition to the family - an evil twin, my professional blog on my research and teaching interests, that is business models, innovation, and entrepreneurship.  Please check it out here!

Flying off an old project

Back to Siurana for some fun action in the wind, this time on an old project of mine, Muerte del Sponsor.  I have tried this route some time ago, and have been frustrated by the last reachy move on the roof.


 It is a very aesthetically pleasing line, and a very good and sustained route.  Although the small edges crux on the lower part has always been easy for me, getting over the last roof has remained the main problem.

In the middle of the route 

And there I was again, trying out my recently acquired strong head on this route.  But it was not to be. I did my best effort for the photographer, for the place, for me.  But flow abandoned me on that last move, once more.

 Just before the move

Touched the last hold...and then...I fell :)
