I heard a rumor that he's gonna attend the JT Stonemasters renvedaux at KP's in April! Do you think he'll be sporting the low hanging boxers like back in the day? Kids today are emulating his style with their pants hanging so low their boxers show. Fashoins do come back into vogue eventually.

Spencer: Maybe the reason he used so many creative nut placements was to make the few (all six of them) nuts that he had on his rack fit the crack? Like I said, he sure didn't let things like that stop him, or even slow him down...

Just gotta say that the Hart Park traverse is super bad-ass. We used to speculate that even that french heavy Ed Lingerie probably couldn't send it first try.

"JT Stonemasters renvedaux at KP's in April!"
After all these threads it's good to hear you folks are actually going to try to get everyone together in the flesh. We did the same last fall and it was a great time - enjoy yours...

Huh? How can you have a bouldering session when you cannot even hang onto the holds
It was an acquired taste (or skill). We (mortal folk) used to be happy just cranking some of the short vertical problems, the traverse required fingers of steel which Matt had in spades.

Hey this is Justin cox I'm sitting here with my dad Matt and we just found this! He says he's doing good and misses climbing with everybody. He's planning a trip to the sierras to the evolution treverse in August. Thanks for all the good writings! He was more than happy to see it. His cell is 831-227-5418. He's still got his Afro, still tanner then an Indian, and stronger then ever!

From the sound of the crimping stories, he sounds like the perfect candidate to free Wings of Steel. Move over Tommy!

Matt, many of us get together in Tuolumne Meadows every August for a week or two of climbing and other fun. You should come up there sometime.
