Man with mission

Did you hear about Aaron Shamy? He climbed onto Inferno (5.13b) and then took two pairs of slippers to climb 5.13a and then took a 50-foot 5.12d/13a route in just 61 seconds. I sat in the house and chatted with my roommate, Tom, and this week we were all talking about Aaron Shamy.

Aaron Shamy has bright eyes and a 17-year-old boy from Rock Lake City. Over the years, he has had an amazing climb record: Yellow Card (5.14a three attempts), Spray-a-Thon (5.13c two attempts) At Rifle Rock Field, Power Junkie (5.13d), Body Count (5.13d), Soul Fusion (5.13c) American Fork Rock Field, there are other 50 5.13s routes in his record, even more difficult to imagine. The letter is that; he only climbed for three years, he also said: He is just beginning to progress.

At the same time, Aaron can stand the test of the competition. In the past three domestic competitions, he has won the fourth in the difficulty race, stayed first or second in the speed race and won the first prize in this year's Phoenix bouldering race. Third, in the X-Game in June he got ninth in the difficulty race, the sprint got second, and the first time he participated in the international competition.

What's the difference between young people and other young people Aaron will record 5.14 in his list? Not at the same time; he also yearned for other accomplishments, whether in his high school choir, water skiing in the lake, but he never missed the opportunity to share his extraordinary energy with others, whether someone is redpoint5.9 or on -sight5.14, he is always the first to go forward to congratulate others for their achievements.

Q: How did you start climbing?
A: A friend promised to let me go to the Rockreation course. After that, I fell in love with rock climbing. But my parents said, "What? Rock climbing...!" I said, "OK, Mom! If you think it's strange. Rest assured, I'll try indoor rock climbing first, then climb outdoor." Three months later, another friend took us to Little Cottonwood Canyon to climb. We climbed three weeks at LCC and climbed many traditional routes (trad routes with a wedge fulcrum), which may be more than I have ever had in my life. There was more, and I felt very comfortable at American Fork, where I climbed the first 5.12 Margarita.

Q: How long did you climb to climb the first 5.13 route?
Answer: About 9 months.

Q: What type of route do you like?
A: I like the line that is very open but not too long. It's better to have a bad hand. It may be because Rock Lake City has more routes of this type.

Q: You have a good performance in the sprint race. Can you speed up the climb to help you perform on the rock?
A: A little bit, I think efficiency is the most important skill in climbing. A person's efficiency in climbing is not to say that he is going to climb fast or in an urgency. But speed is related to efficiency. Some people climb very fast and others climb slowly. I don't think there is only one style of climbing.

Q: What do you want to do after graduating from high school?
A: I have been thinking about this issue. I may rest for a year (education) and go to Europe to climb for a few months. Then I will start my mission. It may take several years. (The Mormons need to go to other places. After two years of national mission); then go to college and climb rock.

Q: Do you not worry that after two years of rest, your strength is gone?
A: After coming back, I don't think I should worry about this. After all, I was rock climbing for fun, and I have been doing it from now until now.
