Rannveig Aamodt | Coming Back Stronger Feb 19, 2016

Show notes

Very excited to bring this talk to you! In this episode I sit down with my good friend Rannveig Aamodt, a Norwegian climber and model, and talk about her impressive road to recovery after a terrible accident. In 2012 she took a 50 foot groundfall in Turkey, with only herself to blame. We go deep into how that affected her mentality and her psyche to return to climbing, or physical activity in general. Rannveig does an amazing job of putting into words the process and methods that she used to get back on lead, and now she's back to climbing even harder than she did before the accident. So many people will find not only inspiration, but new methods to use in their struggles with fear, be it fear of falling, of failure, of the unknown, or whatever.

Find Rannveig online: Her Site. Instagram. Facebook. The story we reference in the talk Gallery of rehab photos from Nathan Welton And this is the single image that I find so compelling, that says so much about Rannveig and her spirit.

Show notes

Oh shit, it actually happened... Episode 1. January 1st, 2016. The very last time I'll be on time. Mark it on your calendars! In this, our inaugural episode, we talk with pro climber Carlo Traversi, exploring the merits of being dynamic in your climbing. We take a close look at his approach to an impressive send of "Sky" (V14), that required rethinking an enormous move. Carlo came up with a solution that most of us never would have considered. Adidas Killswitch video of Carlo doing Sky (V14) Rocklands, South Africa. We also discuss his signature move, the Pogo, and how to determine when you might be using your new skill TOO much. If you don't know the pogo, it's a valuable skill which you can find more about in these fun videos from Louder Than 11, featuring Carlo: Pogo Chapter 1 Pogo Chapter 2 Pogo Chapter 3 You can find out all about Carlo at his website!
