Hary on Monsterball 8a+ (V12)

Hary has this to say about Climb On!®:

"This year I 'created' a new bouldering-region in the Allgaeu in the south west of Germany where I live. With the help of my brother, Uli, I cleaned and climbed more than 500 new boulder problems in 15 areas in the grades Fb 2 up to Fb 8b/b+. And all that in only three months. This would not have been possible without the help of Climb On!® Cremes/Bars which I got from my British friend Ian from Beta Climbing Designs. I brushed complete walls and boulders, covered with humid moss and lichen. The hands have been exposed to extreme humidity, chalk, liquid chalk... I got cuts and everything you can imagine when you brush and climb 500 new problems with a wire brush (I think I misused four wire brushes!!!). Thanks to Climb On!® I could climb and work on the new boulders almost everyday, which would not have been possible otherwise."

We say, "Hary, YOU ROCK!" and thanks for all your hard work!
