Rocklands 2009
Some friends an I have been on a trip to the Rocklands in South Africa for seven weeks. I knew that this place is really good for climbing, but as I saw it by myself i couldn´t believe how amazing the climbing is down there!! There are so many five star problems in all grates, even a lot of easier problems are really good.News

- 21.02.2010 Ticino trip by Korni Obleitner - Few days ago our tem member Korni Obleitner returned from his successful trip to Ticino where he climbed problems like La Proue 8b, Boogalagga 8b (see picture).
- 22.01.2010 ISPO winter 2010 - Dear Parters, Colleagues, Friends, Climbers, we would like to invite you to our stand on winter ISPO in Münich, Germany. Hall B5, Stand 132B. Yours Rock Pillars, Ocun Team.
During the first weeks we climbed a lot, had a look at differnt places and tried to get a bit of an overview. After some time we realized that there are a way to much perfect problems and so we had to pick out some favourites and started to work on our projects. My big project was a problem called Amandla. After some days working on it i got quite close, but then i split half my fingertip and i couldn´t even try it seriously for the rest of my trip. So i have got a reason to come back, and finish all the problems i wasn´t able to climb this year. Here is a short ticklist of my trip:
- Black Shadow, Armed Response, Green Mamba all 8b
- Amphitheater, Oral office, Steakhouse 8a+
- The Hatchling, Barracuda, Gliding through the waves like Dolphins 8a,
- No late Tenders, Caroline, Tomorrow I`ll be gone, Paula Abdul, Pinotage, Shark, Hole in one about 7c+/8a
After seven weeks of climbing I still haven`t been to all areas and every year new problems and even areas are put up!!
I defenitely will go there again (hopefully next summer) because the landscape, the climbing and all the really cheap steaks are so good and amazing that I almost have to come back.
