You know who you are. You spend all day at the boulders and never chalk up because you don’t want to get your sensor dirty. You’ve lined your crashpad with light reflectors and you’ve got a camera mount on your bubba brush. When your bro says “Got me?!” 20 feet up The Heretic you’re thinking, yup, autofocus tracking!. Maybe all that shutterbugging has got you climbing a few grades down and you missed the podium by *that much*. Well, here’s your chance to finally win some BIG schwag!
