Hey, I was talking to my friend the other day and he said: "Nobody here knows who Dave Graham is, it's just another climbing coach to them". Obviously local hero Dave Macleod overshadows most good climbers around the world but hey, we all watch the same dvd's don't we ?  Just wondering how popular Dave G is? |

He's a legend! Best thing about the Dosage films.
He's seems so psyched he might explode.

massive massive wad. 60 problems 8a or above this year. He is a beast amongst beasts, i don't quite understand the popularity question though. Is that important? Should it be?

This one will maybe make more sense: Will a punter at the wall recognise the name on the poster (masterclasses around Scotland) or is Dave Graham just a random climbing coach to them. What I didn't realise is the fact that SC readers and "punters" are probably two separate groups... |

I seem to have a different picture than you Pete. Have heard of him as a sh*t hot climber but had no idea he was a coach.

Seems like a top bloke.
I thought that '4 From Font' dose was one of the best bit of bouldering film I've ever seen.

Right enough, he has a load of curly hair. |

Any thoughts ? I think it was amazing, I've been to Sharma's lecture but this was way more interesting and fun. I would definitely go again |
