Jay Knower! Famous "Winsonsinite"

Check out page 62 of the new Climbing!
Brownie points to anyone who knows the "Winsonsinite" reference.

As usual my Climbing is delayed (damn post office) so I haven't seen it yet. Isn't Winsonsinite what they referred to Jay as in the last issue he was featured in (mid-07?) when they called him (and nobody has proved any different as far as I know) the "first Winsonsinite to climb 5.14". Go Jay!

Correctdamundo!
That does beg the question has any other "Winsonsinite" ever climbed 5.14??????
"Winsonsinite" defined by being born or moving to Wisconsin by Age 5.

I would say that if you can indeed load up your u-haul, drive there, & unload it before you are age 5; I would think 5.14 should be the minimum grade you could climb.

this article isn't on their website is it?

We forgive you Samet. Just don't ever fuck with us again!
Keep killing it in CO. If you want to get worked over come to Devils Lake! Free lodging!

I started a thread after the climbing first printed the "Winsonsinite" article wondering if he was the first to climb 5.14. Here's the link.

Apparently there is a Wisconsin born guy repeating so of Tommy C. 14's in Colorado.

Wow, full page photo! Nice Jay!

The red arrow is in case anyone confuses Jay for Kate. LOL!

Wow, that arrow is funny as hell out of context!

Don't you know that a red arrow always follows me around? It's getting a bit annoying, actually.

Jay, that's just weird. You should probably get that checked out.

LOL!!

Now those are some good looking fellas.....even with that big red arrow following along.

But what is Jay doing? Great question.....

I don't know. You were supposed to be watching him at the time.

I believe by the time the picture was taken it was officially your job Kayte....

Jay was getting busy with Miss November from the bachelor party!
