La voie du Milieu

When I look back to what I did last year, it's still fantastic.
I went all the way to China, traveled over 2000km to visit a very special climbing area: Getu Valley.
At the time being there I was totally not satisfied with what I was able to climb and was ashamed sometimes of my achievements there.
But the atmostphere, the people and the whole image on being there was as they would say in Flemmish-Dutch: hallucinant.
Daniel du Lac is one of the climbers I met there. One of the 'older' rock stars with many good competition results on his CV, he now climbs still on a really proper level. He's an inspiring and motivating climber. And just when thinking back on the whole trip a video of one of his routes out there was published.
Watch and enjoy.
