Tyler Landman - Ty - is hunting perfect boulders and chilly conditions around Europe!
He and some friends have moved from London to France: first stop Fontainebleau!
Tyler Landman - Ph: Alex Messenger
In Font Ty has managed among the others,
Carnage,
La Berezina and flashed
Atomic Playboy (8A).
When the rain arrived in font, the troupe decided to move to Switzerland.
They first stopped in Magic Wood and then in Cresciano where Tyler has climbed
La Pelle 8A+,
La Pelle left 8A and
The Riverbed 8B.
From Tyler words:"Monday 15th September
Magic Wood was drenched, so with Welsh boys Liam and Dave on the team, we drove up to Cresciano for the day. The temperature rose from 7 to 21 but we were glad to find dry rock. Having only done one problem at Cresciano I was excited to delv. We went up to the La Pelle bloc and started trying the two powerful problems that this boulder offers. First on the list was La Pelle, a powerful 8a+ established by Fred Nicole many years back. The crux revolves around a dyno from a sidepull to the sloping lip. Malcolm in his prime was on my mind. I sorted the moves out and completed it a couple goes later. I then did La Pelle left, a hard 8a problem made popular by classic film, Stone Love. I had completed the day's goals and was starting to feel back in the groove."
