First Ascent Podcast

Joe Kinder and the Aesthetics of Climbing


Listen Later

Today 5.15 climber and world-renowned first ascentionist Joe Kinder joins Jay and Lee on the pod! Joe has put up routes all over the globe, but his roots lay right here in New Hampshire. Hear the tale of how he broke into the New Hampshire climbing scene as a teenager in the 90s, and how that led him to becoming a part of the next wave of Rumney climbers that pushed the boundaries of what was happening there. 


Joe’s approach to climbing and route development is community oriented and humble, and he’s here to encourage you to try out any climb that calls to you - because it’s just as much for you as it is for everyone else. 


In addition to climbing, Joe has an awesome climbing inspired apparel line:  https://www.lifeofvillains.com/
