New place to climb

Something sad happen 2 weeks ago....to be precise its on 10th Aug 2008. I won't say its a very sad occasion to many people, but definitely for many rock climbers. It is the day Summit Rock Climbing Gym close down. They have been operating there for about 4 years now and from what I heard, the owner of Summit decide to increase the rent hence they are forced to moved out.

To be honest, the sport of rock climbing in Malaysia did grow but not at a very good pace. Over the years I have been climbing, the crowd still seem to be the same old bunch wherever I met. Ones or twice we see some new faces but they are more like those "try ones" type.

With the closure of the Summit climbing gym....me and my regular climbing kakis now have to look for other places to climb. We try to avoid going to Camp5 as the fee there is very very expensive, but ones a while we have to go there to feed our addiction for climbing. Else will do more outdoor climb.....if the weather permits.

Its already the end.....

Didn't realize I have not blog for about 2 months now...and I also didn't realize the last time I blog was just before mhy last diving trip.

In the previous blog....I am wondering whether will I call a quit on my DMT programme. Well the status now is about 90% completed, I just left my 4 stamina exams then I can be certified as a PADI DM already.

Due to some unforseen circumstances, I have decided to put on hold the DM training. My plan forward in diving now is to go for some fun dives a year and enjoy each dive I make. I will still continue to update myself on dive theories, skills and developments....however for the time moment, no courses...only pure fun dives :)
