Paul, myself and our new German friend Marcus met up with Tammy and Vince on Saturday at Hueco.  We had some projects lined up in mind and were dying to get to the rock.<\/p>\n<p>To start the weekend off, during breakfast Sat morning Tammy dropped the awesome news.  She had sent Dragonfly V5 two days prior.  GO TAMMY!!!  Now with all of us completely stoked, we began the day warming up at the East Spur Maze (helping out a friend get observed for guiding).  Paul was a bit discouraged, as he wanted to get to Martini Roof ASAP to have a go at Martini Left.  FINALLY&#8230;&#8230;around 1pm we headed to Martini.  Before Marcus could even finish his warm-ups and join us, there was whooping and hollaring as Paul ticked off his first V10.  WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!  And yes, we got it on video&#8230;stay tuned.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday was a great day for all.  We went to East Mtn with Tammy as our guide.  We warmed up at Kid&#8217;s Stuff, then headed to the Blender Boulder.  Marcus quickly ticked The Ostracizer V2, Claudia did Ides of March V6, and Paul flashed Brutus V5, Ides of March, and Hector in a Blender V7.  Vince and the French Dude (can&#8217;t remember his name!) did Tri Hard V4 with a dynamic scary finish.  Then it was off to Hardman Rock for some work on my new project, Dragonfly.  After hearing about Tammy&#8217;s send, the pressure was on&#8230;but alas, no sending for me this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The next area was the Dark Heart.  The classic problem there is Something Different V8, which was sent by Vince (3rd try) and Paul (1st try).  I managed to send a &#8220;mungy&#8221; V3 called Darth Vader.  After that we decided to hit one more area before the day was over, Three Years Dead and the Bitch Still Burnt Me, V6.  Splendid sends by both Vince (who topped out the SCARY chossy finish) and Paul (who bailed before the SCARY chossy finish and dropped off &#8211; reminded of Nick plummeting off the top of Moonshine Roof after breaking a foothold).<\/p>\n<p>All in all, awesome weekend &#8211; one of the best yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For our first weekend blog, we&#8217;re happy to be able to report some exciting climbing news.
