Post by: RockandRideOutdoors on December 08, 2012
For anyone that is about on Tuesday evening Paul Swail is giving a slideshow about climbing in Yosemite. £5 at the door that includes refreshments.  There might even be some freebies if you are lucky from Alpkit and Wild Country!

Starts at 7:30pm at Tollymore!

Hope to see some of you guys there!

We could have a 'climbing night' at this :)

Sounds like a plan. not sure I can afford the fuel to get there by myself so may need to car share.

You wanna pick me up?

The idea behind this slideshow was to inspire young people, that is why it is a Tollymore!  If there was the interest in Belfast something could be organised for people that can't make it/ afford it.

Here is a little vid of what is to come tomorrow night!

hopefully you'll let us auld fellas in  ;D but will bring the wee lad along just in case, then he can talk his mum into a climbing holiday next year  8)

p.s. my 8 yr old also wants to go now, would it be suitable for such a youngling?

I think a lot of us have watched that video, numerous times, and it looks exhilarating and terrifying at the same time and it would be interesting to see the rest of it. It would be great if there was a talk in Belfast sometime as it's hard to get down to Tollymore for a few of us.

If you think Tollymore is too far from Belfast, then its happening again in Dublin tomorrow night  ;D

Really enjoyed the talk, it wasn't a glossed up production, it just felt like sitting in the living room watching the family holiday snaps  :) (well i was at the front so couldn't see the hundred or so people behind me  ::) ) bargain night out, me and 2 kids all in for a fiver, free posters, free stickers, free tea and free brownies (well i hope they were free  ::) ) Well done Paul.


p.s. you think that ledge looked awesome in the youtube video, you should have seen it on the big screen, WOW  :o
