MALLORCA PSICOBLOG!!!




So...I'm headed to Mallorca to meet The North Face Team Athletes Alex Honnold, Emily Harrington, James Pearson, and Matt Segal. Mallorca is a small island off the coast of Spain, where we will explore the island's unique potential for a style of climbing called "Deep Water Solo" or "Psicobloc." If you aren't familiar with D.W.S, it is not for the faint of heart, and entails climbing the wild orange limestone cliffs which surround Mallorca's coastline... without a rope!! Failing on a climb means a spectacular and horrifying plunge into the swirling sea, followed by an adrenaline surging swim for safety!!! Tim Kemple and I will be filming the nail biting mayhem and I'll be posting short video dispatches from the field....so stay tuned!!! Cheers Cedar Wright
