This is our day-to-day, Welcome to the world of Climbing!

Hello, Steemit Community! It is a real privilege for us to be able to present to you an excellent extreme sport group called EPC (Climbing Passion Caricuao): a Climbing and Mountaineering Club that was created not more than three years ago in Caracas-Venezuela and that has been growing very fast at national level.

The very beginning..

This club was born by the initiative of a group of rock climbers with a lot of experience in the sport field, though they did not participate in competitions at national level, because the philosophy that surrounds us when it comes to climbing is: "it is not to reach the top, but it is more about enjoying the journey", then this idea is always in our minds when it comes to climbing the largest existing rock routes in our beautiful country VENEZUELA.

At this moment, this Club is officially formed, and our perspective has taken another path, because currently our task is to transmit our knowledge about climbing, our safety knowledge, our responsibility for the conservation of the environment and above all to train great athletes to represent us in the future Olympics. This is why our new perspective on this sport has been changing little by little, and when it comes to climbing, our thinking revolves around not trying to reach the top with an empty soul, it is more about strengthening ourselves from inside the soul to enjoy the journey no matter how hard the road is.

This new way of seeing our passion for climbing has been positive for the guys who are part of the Club, because they enjoy the different elemental materials to climb safely such as: ropes, safety equipment, harness and even climbing shoes have been donated mostly by our team of rock climbers. It is also important to note that the place where we make sporting life is one of the few contributions we have obtained from the State, because these places were abandoned due to lack of qualified personnel..


A little infiltrator.

Overcoming the obstacles of reality.

Unfortunately, not everything is rosy in the garden, and there are always certain limitations that hinder the path by delaying us in order for not to meet our goals. Climbing, for being an extreme sport, it is necessary to have a security team in very good conditions (ropes, harness, safety carabiners, among other things) which allow us to preserve our physical integrity, and that is why Climbing as a sport It is quite expensive, which makes it one of the least practiced sports in Venezuela. There are direct bodies of the National Government whose duty is to regulate and carry out activities in favor of sports in our country, but however sad it may be, rarely has Sport Climbing been taken into account. Our sport has been put aside and we as athletes have made us create false hopes on multiple occasions, they have promised us the provision of new equipment and funding of trips made by our club members to competitions held in other states of the country, but our sad reality is that none of this has been true. For nobody is a secret the great economic problem for which our country is currently going through and this greatly affects us as athletes at the time of being able to attend national competitions, since each athlete must pay his own trip to compete.

Although there may be a thousand and one adversities, our dream of being great climbers and of forming great athletes that represent us with dignity, is what makes us overcome any barrier, so we always try to focus on positive things and give the best in every training and in every competition that we can attend, because when dreams are great there is nothing that can distract you from making it come true.
