(it sounds awesome!) I've learn so much just by watching you over the years on other dvd's having you instruct should be great. Where would it be available when it's released? My wife is an instructor at the reebok sports club-NYC (you met her a few years ago at a book signing in new york at the jacob center-it ready made her day) perhaps if you do another book or dvd tour you can stop by the club as well and do a seminar base on the dvd to promote it. we both love ya! take care. Bernie and Suz Andreasen Hi Lynn,

This year, at 10 years old, I have decided to let her pursue this interest fully. We are beginning with indoor rock climbing and then moving outside in the spring. Would that be a good way to start? She chose you as her person of interest to write a report about after she reads your book, "Climbing Free: My Life In A Vertical World." She is up to chapter 5 already. She carries the book everywhere. She has to dress up like you and present your life to her class. She is very excited to complete this project. I just wanted to let you know that you are an inspiration to a young interested future climber. I guess I should have seen this coming since she used to scale to the top of every door jam when I wasn't looking when she was 4-5 years old ;-) If you have any advice for beginning children climbers or know where I should look, I would love to hear/read it. Good luck with your endeavors! We can hardly wait to view your video! Hi,

Even the picture that there is a constant virtual source of energy above a rock is such helpful description of finding the right level of energy for a route! So, in one word, I am so curious to see what your video will be like! All best and thanks for inspiration!

I've been working on the technique video over the last several months but it takes time to get all the images I want to include and even more time to edit them and then add the necessary graphics. I hope to finish this project by Feb. 09. I will be sure to let people know when it's done!! In the meantime, good luck with your climbing and thanks for your interest in this project! Hi Deborah!

Spero di non averti dato fastidio, e spero pure di incontrarti ancora, magari di nuovo a prendere il caffè! Grazie ancora. Marco Ciao Lynn,
quando racconteremo ai nostri amici rocciatori che questa mattina, andando a prendere il caffè al solito bar di Arco prima di fare una via, abbiamo incontrato Lynn Hill e ci siamo fermati a parlare, non so quanti ci crederanno !! :)

Io sono venuto a sentirti alla conferenza a Brescia (io sono di Brescia) e mi è piaciuto molto ascoltarti, devo chiederti scusa se questa mattina non sono riuscito a fare a meno di comportarmi come un fan agitato invece di lasciarti bere il tuo caffè in pace.
Spero di non averti dato fastidio, e spero pure di incontrarti ancora, magari di nuovo a prendere il caffè!
Grazie ancora.

I read about your Engagement for other people. I love to climb and enjoy with my husband and two kids hopefully soon again. I ve had an injury last year and my kneeoperation three months ago. So, long way to find back to my routine now. I enjoyed that climbing in Zillertal (quit hard for me) so much. I went there a few times. Normally we live in Germany. But one year ago we moved to Middle east england. I think its pretty difficult to climb here without any bolts.hm.. just new for me. What do you think? However, I ve just wanted to send that little mail to you, because I read sometimes your interviews and reports. Thank you to give me good motivations. it pushs me a bit forward. kind regards rike Hi Lynn, I am always impressed what you do and have done in your life.
