Buildering

Evil Phil

Yep, buildering. Its urban bouldering where you boulder buildings, statues and any other type of problem you can find in the urban environment. Probably an offshoot from free running.

Anybody groups doing this? Know a good quiet spot?

I don't mean to ask a stupid question but can you explain what bouldering is:o

does it involve throwing large rocks?? Whatever it is, it sounds like fun

Bouldering is climbing boulders instead of cliffs. The problems(routes) are low down so don't require a rope but are physically and technically very intense.

ok now i understand ... sounds hella fun
Gotta say i'm overcome with a desire to builder a garda barricks

... or maybe the security hut outside where i work

Isn't there some french climber guy who dresses as spiderman and does this on major landmarks?

This sounds like a lot of fun.

Think the "Official" name for it is Urban Climbing. That french guys name is Alain Robert, lots of info, pics and vids on the linked site

I think I prefer urban climbing, buildering makes me think of arse cleavage.
