Jim1NZ off to World Champs

Weta · 23rd March 2010, 05:37 PM

Just letting everyone know that Jim1NZ, a TreeWorld stalwart, turned in an amazing Master's Climb at the Asia-Pacific Champs last weekend to take the title, and book his first ever (not for lack of trying) berth at the World Champs.
Freaking awesome effort, James.

There you go again, its nice to see a women doing well, but do give credit where it is due and Jim certainly has earned his respect on this forum. Sueann have you ever climbed, if you have you would know what these accomplished climbers do with relative ease takes a lot of training and dedication!

Well done Jim and Chrissy...

Ooops! sorry JD , I was just caught up reading about Chrissy and forgot his name, I didn't even know women climbed up trees like that and was seriously impressed with her whole story, especially because she said she was scared of heights.

I wish him the best of luck of course!
