What do you do when you're not diving?

[Drew Sailbum]

You mean I'm supposed to do something other than diving? :huh:

Well, if I must, I do spend some time sailing and windsurfing.

Bouldering is good fun!

I guess all I'll get to do this winter is hit the rock gym...

I wish I had someone better than I am to train with!!!! Sucks to be the best Also sucks not to know any climbers in the area.

Well... Probably not now but gimme a couple of months and I can redpoint some pretty high numbers! I think climbing is probably the most challenging activities I've done in terms of physical and mental preparation... Strength, flexibility, coordination. Onsight work is kind of like a time constrained puzzle...

Hmmm... I guess plastic will have to do for now!

and it seems like there is never enough time to get it all done.
I've been reworking my backyard for a few months now. Took everything out, down to the dirt and have be rebuilding since. A new pond with waterfall and koi, new planters and irrigation and right now I'm finishing up the flagstone on the patio and around the walkways.

Beside that, just being a father and a husband

I hate this country during hockey season. I can get one game a month on tv and absolutely no chance of actually playing.

Work, read books, dive magazines, climbing magazines, gym climb when it's too cold to climb on the rock and read the scuba board, and snuggle with my Dalmatians.

Climbing is great and a real good mind bender! It's amazing what happens when you get a climb totally wired on top-rope or seconding then get full on sewing machine leg and anxiety skyrockets the second you are on the sharp end 15 feet above your last pro. Wow, definitely a mental workout.

For full on fear management however, nothing beats whitewater kayaking! I have never been more terrified than when I go kayaking. There is something totally wrong from a self preservation standpoint to voluntarily strap yourself into a small plastic Rubbermaid container which has the inherent stability of an egg on end and throw yourself down a raging river! What a rush! I highly recommend it!
