Speed climbing is the ultimate culmination of endless hours spent dialing in beta, trimming the rack, and pushing the body to move as quickly up the wall as possible!


With FKTs int he Flatrions and on Eldorado Canyon's legendary Naked Edge (5.11b), few do it better than boulder local and speed climbing phenom, Joe Kennedy.


Check out the latest Ground Up episode to hear how Joe and his partner Stefan Griebel prepared for their record breaking attempts on the Naked Edge, what it's like running with Satan's Minions, and which epic linkups are next on the horizon.

Recognize san luis obispo in the photo.  Pretty epic shot for about a 30 foot route

It’s better looking when it’s green rather than a crisp yellow brown

True.  This looks like the green dial got turned up to “shire”.   This is where I learned to climb, place was a sanctuary for me as a kid
