Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - The first thing I saw today when I picked up my phone, still cuddled next to my soon to be 1 year old son, was the news of losing @bradgobright to a rappelling accident. Climbing has felt a lot different since becoming a dad. Alex and Tommy gave me a hard time this season (lightheartedly) for being the only one wearing a helmet while mini-tractioning pitches on New Dawn. But, for the first time I felt naked without it. The exposure felt different. Rappelling the wall alone one night felt heavy. Climbing, recently, has felt heavy. What I loved about Brad was the lightness he brought to climbing while still being ferociously ambitious. It was refreshing. Inspiring. I’ll miss that lightness and will seek to find more of it as I navigate my lifelong passion for adventure with my dedication to my family. RIP Brad and please send lots of love to his friends and family.

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - 6 years ago already?! What an amazing time it’s been though, filled with love, gratitude, and excitement for what the future holds.

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Happy holidays from the Jorgeson family!
Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Thanks to @eldowalls, at least one of us has a home wall to train on. I think it’s time for a new project in the backyard....
Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Last night we hosted @reelrock as our annual fundraiser for the @b_radfoundation. We started the foundation in mourning and in celebration of one of my closest friends -  the late, great Brad Parker. It felt appropriate to say a few words to the audience before playing the Race for the Nose segment, of which @bradgobright steals the show. Basically, if you’ve been climbing long enough, you learn to expect to get punched in the stomach with grief a few times a year. Some of the punches, from distant acquaintances, heal with time. Others, from dear friends, may leave a mark that never really heals. Even when you learn to expect that shock and grief are just around the corner, it never helps you catch your breath when the news hits you. As I watched the films, we are reminded just how many amazing souls we have lost recently: @deanpotter, @seanleary, @uelisteck, @mdre92 and now, @bradgobright. Anyway, I read a passage written by one of Brad’s early climbing partners that really seemed to capture who he was. This paragraph was my favorite part, but the entire piece is linked in my bio: ā€œSociety never had a chance with Brad, and neither did the Ranger. It couldn’t make him want to be someone or something else any more than the Ranger could. You couldn’t punish it out of him any more than you could sell him on an alternative. Brad was exactly himself, and the only person seemingly not concerned about that was him. No dilemma, just Brad. He simply couldn’t fathom any other way to live.ā€

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Full Circle. That’s what I named this first ascent back in February right before COVID hit. At the time, it spoke to returning to my highball roots after becoming a father. Today, there’s a feeling of emerging from a long, lonely winter. I remember standing on top of this line, filled with satisfaction in the moment and a mix of hope and optimism for the future. Despite everything going on the world right now, it feels great to come full circle back into the light. There’s lots of work to do...šŸ“ø: @kaare_iverson_photography
Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Every relationship has it’s ā€œglue.ā€ For @tommycaldwell and me, it’s climbing projects on El Cap. I’m excited to spend some quality time on the big stone this fall.

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - If you’re not following @westmountainmedia, @nalle_hukkataival and @ignaciomulero I highly recommend you do! They’re on day 3 of a push on the Dawn Wall after months of preparation. I remember climbing with Nalle for the first time in South Africa ten years ago. Even then, I remember feeling like I should just quit bouldering because of how talented he was. Super excited to see Nalle and Ignacio apply their talents to the most beautiful big wall around! Pulling for you guys!
Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Pinch Overhang: a John Gill (father of modern bouldering) classic from the 1960’s. Can’t imagine pressing out this mantle in anything but modern climbing shoes! Thanks for the tour @cam_m_cross!
Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - After the longest break from climbing in my life due to a ruptured pulley, I’m beyond stoked to be gently getting back to the rock. Getting fit is always way harder than staying fit, but I’m looking forward to the process! After all, fall temps are just around the corner…

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Over 20 years ago, I tried outdoor climbing for the first time at this seaside crag called Sunset Boulders. It’s still one of my favorite spots, known best for slippery feet, sharp holds, and fun top ropes/highballs. šŸ“·: @marble_rye

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Until next time Australia! It’s been a whirlwind two weeks on tour with @tommycaldwell. Thanks to everyone who came out to one of the shows, said hi at a store visit, and climbed with us. Another trip is definitely needed in order to fully enjoy everything Australia has to offer!

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - I’ve been finding a lot of inspiration on our coastal sandstone lately. Being out there with the wind and the waves reminds me of a shoot I did with @billphelpsstudio a few years back. I thought he captured what it feels like out there pretty well, especially on a cloudy, moody day. Some inspiring projects on the horizon...

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - 2020 is going to be a big year for @1climb_official. I’m super excited about all the projects we have in the pipeline and for support from elected officials like @repmikethompson. Changing lives through climbing, one wall, one kid, one climb at a time.

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Commitment...to an objective...to the process...to improving...to taking the risk. I think that’s what I love most about climbing. Highballs have a special relationship with commitment. 10 years after Ambrosia, it was awesome to feel the fire for highball bouldering again thanks to this stunning line in Salt Point State Park. I’m gonna spend a few posts going back in time and share what led me to highballs to begin with, how they ultimately pushed me to find a new discipline of climbing, and come full circle with some send photos of the new line. Really though, I’m just buying time cause I can’t think of a name for this thing haha. Either way, enjoy. šŸ“· @kaare_iverson_photography

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - The Dawn Wall will always be my proudest climbing experience, but in the 8 years since topping out with @tommycaldwell, there are many experiences I’m just as proud of, if not more. 

Highlights include getting engaged to @jacquilovesanimals in Anguilla, meeting @barackobama in Yosemite, marrying @jacquilovesanimals, helping launch and scale the @b_radfoundation, founding and scaling @1climb_official to over a dozen locations with Dan, becoming a father, and after 7 years of effort, building and opening @sessionclimbing in Santa Rosa. 

I think the common thread in most of these closely held memories is the idea of pulling dreams from the future into the present. It’s always a mix of intimidating and inspiring but that’s all part of the adventure. 

Already looking forward to what’s next!

Kevin Jorgeson Instagram - Discovering Highballs

A trip to Joshua Tree in January 2005 changed everything for me. Until then, my relationship with climbing was centered around difficulty. This trip was different because I was coming off a three month recovery from a broken wrist (shout out to @jamiecemerson for the spot, it could have been worse!). Climbing hard simply wasn’t an option. So instead, I ditched the guidebook and started exploring the landscape for the most aesthetic looking boulder problems I could find. My eye was immediately drawn to the areas many highballs.
.

Standing at the base of Act of Contrition feels a bit like looking up a wave that’s about to start breaking. The climb lured me in with easy moves off the ground and before I knew it, it was safer to keep going up than to jump down. Staring down the last move, time stood still in an unfamiliar way. When climbing at my limit, it was always the pure blinding effort that stopped the clock. But here, it was the focus required to suspend my disbelief, my fear, my inner dialog and just commit to the risk. I remember topping out with a huge smile on my face. I was hooked and about to kick off a five year obsession with highballs.
Kevin Jorgeson - 23K Likes - The first thing I saw today when I picked up my phone, still cuddled next to my soon to be 1 year old son, was the news of losing @bradgobright to a rappelling accident. Climbing has felt a lot different since becoming a dad. Alex and Tommy gave me a hard time this season (lightheartedly) for being the only one wearing a helmet while mini-tractioning pitches on New Dawn. But, for the first time I felt naked without it. The exposure felt different. Rappelling the wall alone one night felt heavy. Climbing, recently, has felt heavy. What I loved about Brad was the lightness he brought to climbing while still being ferociously ambitious. It was refreshing. Inspiring. I’ll miss that lightness and will seek to find more of it as I navigate my lifelong passion for adventure with my dedication to my family. RIP Brad and please send lots of love to his friends and family.

Caption : The first thing I saw today when I picked up my phone, still cuddled next to my soon to be 1 year old son, was the news of losing @bradgobright to a rappelling accident. Climbing has felt a lot different since becoming a dad. Alex and Tommy gave me a hard time this season (lightheartedly) for being the only one wearing a helmet while mini-tractioning pitches on New Dawn. But, for the first time I felt naked without it. The exposure felt different. Rappelling the wall alone one night felt heavy. Climbing, recently, has felt heavy. What I loved about Brad was the lightness he brought to climbing while still being ferociously ambitious. It was refreshing. Inspiring. I’ll miss that lightness and will seek to find more of it as I navigate my lifelong passion for adventure with my dedication to my family. RIP Brad and please send lots of love to his friends and family.

Kevin Jorgeson - 12.1K Likes - Last night we hosted @reelrock as our annual fundraiser for the @b_radfoundation. We started the foundation in mourning and in celebration of one of my closest friends -  the late, great Brad Parker. It felt appropriate to say a few words to the audience before playing the Race for the Nose segment, of which @bradgobright steals the show. Basically, if you’ve been climbing long enough, you learn to expect to get punched in the stomach with grief a few times a year. Some of the punches, from distant acquaintances, heal with time. Others, from dear friends, may leave a mark that never really heals. Even when you learn to expect that shock and grief are just around the corner, it never helps you catch your breath when the news hits you. As I watched the films, we are reminded just how many amazing souls we have lost recently: @deanpotter, @seanleary, @uelisteck, @mdre92 and now, @bradgobright. Anyway, I read a passage written by one of Brad’s early climbing partners that really seemed to capture who he was. This paragraph was my favorite part, but the entire piece is linked in my bio: ā€œSociety never had a chance with Brad, and neither did the Ranger. It couldn’t make him want to be someone or something else any more than the Ranger could. You couldn’t punish it out of him any more than you could sell him on an alternative. Brad was exactly himself, and the only person seemingly not concerned about that was him. No dilemma, just Brad. He simply couldn’t fathom any other way to live.ā€

They’re on day 3 of a push on the Dawn Wall after months of preparation. I remember climbing with Nalle for the first time in South Africa ten years ago. Even then, I remember feeling like I should just quit bouldering because of how talented he was. Super excited to see Nalle and Ignacio apply their talents to the most beautiful big wall around! Pulling for you guys!

Kevin Jorgeson - 8.9K Likes - Commitment...to an objective...to the process...to improving...to taking the risk. I think that’s what I love most about climbing. Highballs have a special relationship with commitment. 10 years after Ambrosia, it was awesome to feel the fire for highball bouldering again thanks to this stunning line in Salt Point State Park. I’m gonna spend a few posts going back in time and share what led me to highballs to begin with, how they ultimately pushed me to find a new discipline of climbing, and come full circle with some send photos of the new line. Really though, I’m just buying time cause I can’t think of a name for this thing haha. Either way, enjoy. šŸ“· @kaare_iverson_photography

Highballs have a special relationship with commitment. 10 years after Ambrosia, it was awesome to feel the fire for highball bouldering again thanks to this stunning line in Salt Point State Park. I’m gonna spend a few posts going back in time and share what led me to highballs to begin with, how they ultimately pushed me to find a new discipline of climbing, and come full circle with some send photos of the new line. Really though, I’m just buying time cause I can’t think of a name for this thing haha. Either way, enjoy. šŸ“· @kaare_iverson_photography

Kevin Jorgeson - 8.7K Likes - The Dawn Wall will always be my proudest climbing experience, but in the 8 years since topping out with @tommycaldwell, there are many experiences I’m just as proud of, if not more. 

Highlights include getting engaged to @jacquilovesanimals in Anguilla, meeting @barackobama in Yosemite, marrying @jacquilovesanimals, helping launch and scale the @b_radfoundation, founding and scaling @1climb_official to over a dozen locations with Dan, becoming a father, and after 7 years of effort, building and opening @sessionclimbing in Santa Rosa. 

I think the common thread in most of these closely held memories is the idea of pulling dreams from the future into the present. It’s always a mix of intimidating and inspiring but that’s all part of the adventure. 

Already looking forward to what’s next!

Kevin Jorgeson - 7.8K Likes - Discovering Highballs

A trip to Joshua Tree in January 2005 changed everything for me. Until then, my relationship with climbing was centered around difficulty. This trip was different because I was coming off a three month recovery from a broken wrist (shout out to @jamiecemerson for the spot, it could have been worse!). Climbing hard simply wasn’t an option. So instead, I ditched the guidebook and started exploring the landscape for the most aesthetic looking boulder problems I could find. My eye was immediately drawn to the areas many highballs.
.

Standing at the base of Act of Contrition feels a bit like looking up a wave that’s about to start breaking. The climb lured me in with easy moves off the ground and before I knew it, it was safer to keep going up than to jump down. Staring down the last move, time stood still in an unfamiliar way. When climbing at my limit, it was always the pure blinding effort that stopped the clock. But here, it was the focus required to suspend my disbelief, my fear, my inner dialog and just commit to the risk. I remember topping out with a huge smile on my face. I was hooked and about to kick off a five year obsession with highballs.
