Alright, I’m away this week so no posts, but here are some killer videos to tide you over.

- North Van’s Gary Robbins recently broke the speed record for the West Coast Trail with a time of 10 hours and 8 minutes. More videos available on his blog.

- @Arcteryx tweeted this hilarious climbing video. “While shooting my Squamish in a Day video, Jason Kruk got his knee stuck in a 5.11 offwidth called “Boogie ’til You Puke.” Luckily Andrew Burr was there shooting stills while I shot video and switched his 5d to video mode to capture what is perhaps the most horrific and hilarious climbing experience I have ever witnessed first hand. By this end of this short movie, you should understand why the climb is now officially renamed “Boogie ’til You Poop!”:
