Dreamcatcher

December 24, 2010
When looking back at the 2010 climbing trip I think the competition was truly one of the best experience of my life. I've dedicated my time to training for the comps for whole year and I've really enjoyed it. However, competition for me was just another stepping stone, to built up opportunities, make connections with other climbers in Thailand and share the experience with other passionate climbers.

After the last competition this year (Thailand Climbing Championship 2010) I started to realize, I certain still very small for the comps and i found my self that I actually do not like to compete with another people. Some people enjoy competing but some people, like me, prefer to be outside. It's just rock and myself that beat each other. So I think I'm probably going to stop competing for a while because I want to find my self back at the rock more often.

I wishes you all have a very very great Christmas 2010

I just found this photo that when i was started climbing

I feel I have been successful in reaching the goals I set myself in 2010. I did lots of climbing and completed some projects, especially at my main base Crazy Horse Buttress. I've done some 5.12b" Intensify, freeblast, the Horse know the way" 5.12a "Balance of Power, Jai Kra Ruea Phroa, Bolted in minded" and lots of 5.11+ there. In our summer trip, Add and I also went to climb at Khoa Yoi. It's about an hour away from Bangkok. We were only there for a couple of days but we did tons of climbing. We enjoyed our time there and we're making plans to get back there as soon as possible. I also have the opportunity to climb in Chiang Dao, the place I was born. I've been there a couple of times this year and " Red Chili 5.12a " it one of the best route I've onsighted and i feel like my body has progressed to become more of a climber's body.

I'm so thankful that I haven't been ill for a while and for all the great experiences rock climbing has given me this year. At the moment I want to give my body some time to rest. I want to focus on thinking of new ideas and planning how to reach my BIG GOAL about climbing (5.13c or 8a+). it on Now!

One year has gone so quickly. BIG PROPS to such a great climbing community and CMRCA gangs for all the support they give. And, I'd like to say merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone. Enjoy yourself and have a great time. Find something outstanding for your life for the next year....go go the RABBIT

Continues to be inspired

Cheers!

Professionalism

December 15, 2010

I haven't written for a while as my life has been so busy with work and training. (Although I haven't climbed much in the last two weeks because my fingers are weak. I decided to listen to my body and rest before progressing to the next level of climbing).

Crags Clean up day 2010

Victor and i are good friend

Last weekend was Father's day in Thailand and lots of people returned home to spend time with their family. I had to work at the weekend but I still spent time thinking about my family and how much I care about them. I hope everyone had a very good time on the Father's day.

At CMRCA we have been working on different types of motivation and how they can help people achieve their goals . If I want to be the best rock climbing instructor, the most important thing that I could do, it is learn with the best. In the past two weeks CMRCA has has a guest instructor from America called Mr Mark Hammond. He's from Boulder Colorado Mountain School, or CMS, which is an organization for mountain guides in the US. All of CMRCA's instructors took classes with him and learned how to be a professional.

We learned so much with him. He taught us about risk management, EARNEST, how to places the gears or how to find the good placement. He also suggested that the guides contain a notebook to help maintain the companies professional image. It was such an awesome opportunity for CMRCA to have the chance to work with such developed instructors and help to make it the best in Thailand or in SE Asia. I am confident that we are progressing to that point. Mr Hammond taught us so many things and I had many questions to ask. Each time I asked him something he answered me in an simply way that was easy to understand. I'm glad that I attended the courses, because now I can share everything I have learnt with him with clients, the community and also with other instructors. Learning from such an experienced instructor just increases my own motivation to develop my skills and be the best instructor and climber I can be. Thank you CMRCA and Mark Hommond

Sankampeank Hot Spring

This weekend the climbing community from all over the world came together in Chiang Mai. At Crazy Horse every year we have the crag clean up day, where climbers , local people, The CMRCA gang, as well as travellers, all help each other to make the Crag a more sustainable environment. It is important that it is both a good place for beginners to learn, and for experts to practice and improve their climbing skills. The volunteers helped by collecting litter, clearing the pathways to different walls, as well as moving two big piles of gravel up to the Crazy Horse area. It was great to see such a diverse group of people coming together to help and everyone enjoyed the day together. I'd like to say BIG THANKS to you all again....CLIMB ON

I'm heading down to Bangkok soon for the Thailand Climbing Championship on 18-19 December 10. I'm so excited and looking forward to it. The more I learn difficult things the more motivated I feel to accomplish my goals. Thailand national team here I come...

Cheers!
